I changed it. Probably would be nice to find the error without debugging,
though. In fact, the error text specifically indicates that SOURCEDIR is one
of two possible correct values. (and no criticism intended… I rate WIX up there
in the very best of dev tools… was impressive even back when it was VBS )

SOURCEDIR is old and now longer correct. Use SourceDir instead.

So I debugged the code a bit and found in compiler.cs in the
ParseDirectoryElement:
else if ("SourceDir" == name ||
CompilerCore.IsValidShortFilename(name, false))
{
if (null == shortName)
{
shortName = name;
}
else
{
this.core.OnMessage(WixErrors.IllegalAttributeValueWithOtherAttribute(sourceLineNumbers,
node.Name, "Name", name, "ShortName"));
}
}
else
{
if (null == longName)
{
longName = name;
// generate a short directory name
if (null == shortName)
{
shortName = this.GenerateShortName(name, false,
false, node.LocalName, parentId);
}
}
else
{
this.core.OnMessage(WixErrors.IllegalAttributeValueWithOtherAttribute(sourceLineNumbers,
node.Name, "Name", name, "LongName"));
}
}
Should the first highlighted item actually allow for SourceDir or SOURCEDIR?
Because that block of code doesn’t happen, the next block generates a short
name. Changing the SOURCEDIR to SourceDir in the .WXS file gets me beyond
this.
Thanks,
Micah

I tried sending the below to the WIX alias, but got back an error:
#550 5.7.1 RESOLVER.RST.NotAuthorized; not authorized ##
Let me know if there’s a different alias this should go to…
I ran dark against an MSI to generate a .WXS file. Now I’m trying to compile
the WXS file and getting the following error:
I ran: candle -sw1044 SecureLM.wxs
SecureLM.wxs(2010) : error CNDL0206 : The 'TARGETDIR' directory has an illegal
DefaultDir value of 'tqepgrb4|SOURCEDIR'. The DefaultDir value is created from
the *Name attributes of the Directory element. The TARGETDIR directory is a
special directory which must have its Name attribute set to 'SourceDir' or
'SOURCEDIR'.
Here’s line 2010:
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SOURCEDIR">
I’m using the WIX 3.0 from CoreXT (public\ext\wix\3.0.2512.0)
Any ideas on this? I can’t find the text mentioned in the error anywhere.
I put the MSI, .WXS, and supporting files on \\micahk-dev\repro. Any help is
greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Micah
