Re: [WiX-users] Wix for COM+ object
And you have double checked that the CLSID's you are providing for your ComPlusComponent elements are the same provided in you .idl file? You actually only have a single component in each module? Other than that I wonder if there could be anything about your modules being OCX'es but I doubt it. As far as I can remember they are just DLL's with a different extension... You shouldn't need anything besides what you have here as far as I can tell. The [#...] syntax is standard syntax to expand the target path of a file being installed. BTW, you don't need the RemoveFile tags in the below example.

Do you know why it happens and how to fix it? Is there any special meaning for the DllPath with symbol # that a specific value should be given? Are there any codes that should be included such that it will unregister the COM+ libraries and then remove it if no other programs use it? Thanks so much for your help!
