Summary: WixUI_InstallDir generates error 2819

Initial Comment:
When using WixUI_InstallDir, clicking Change on the
Destination Folder dialog generates 'an unexpected
error' with error code 2819. This does not happen with
WixUI_Mondo.

I've been able to reproduce this error. I've created a 
simple single file install and tried to use the 
WixUI_InstallDir element

<UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir" />
<UIRef Id="WixUI_ErrorProgressText" />

It builds fine, but when I run it I get an error 

The installer has encountered an unexpected error 
installing this package. This may indicate a problem with 
this package. The error code is 2819.

If I change the package to use WixUI_Mondo it runs without 
error.

I changed it back to WixUI_InstallDir and ran the 
installer using msiexec with the log option. This reports 
the following error condition:

Action 17:25:50: LicenseAgreementDlg. Dialog created
DEBUG: Error 2819:  Control Folder on dialog InstallDirDlg 
needs a property linked to it
The installer has encountered an unexpected error 
installing this package. This may indicate a problem with 
this package. The error code is 2819. The arguments are: 
InstallDirDlg, Folder, 
MSI (c) (98:B4) [17:25:55:860]: Product: Telligent Patch 
Generation Tool (SQLPatch) -- The installer has 
encountered an unexpected error installing this package. 
This may indicate a problem with this package. The error 
code is 2819. The arguments are: InstallDirDlg, Folder, 

Opening the InstallDirDlg.wxs file the Folder control 
looks like this :

<Control Id="Folder" Type="PathEdit" X="20" Y="100" 
Width="320" Height="18" Property="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" 
Indirect="yes" />

In WiX.chm do a search for WIXUI_INSTALLDIR.
I took me also some time before i found it in the chm 
file :-)

WIXUI_INSTALLDIR must be a property, not a directory. See
WiX.chm for details. So it looks like:

<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
  <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="PFiles">
    <Directory Id="TESTFILEPRODUCTDIR" Name="WIXTEST"
LongName="Test File">
      <Component ...>
      </Component>
    </Directory>
  </Directory>
</Directory>

<Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="TESTFILEPRODUCTDIR" />
<UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir" />

No, I was using INSTALLDIR, as recommended by the WiX
Tutorial. Setting it to WIXUI_INSTALLDIR generates an error:
error LGHT0205 : ICE18: KeyPath for Component: 'Environment'
is Directory: 'WIXUI_INSTALLDIR'. The Directory/Component
pair must be listed in the CreateFolders table.

By the way, where is WIXUI_INSTALLDIR documented?

Have you set WIXUI_INSTALLDIR to the directory you want the
dialog to control? If not, you need to do so. If so, please
attach a verbose log because I can't reproduce it with the
current WiX build.
