What version of wix are you using? In 3.0, XmlFile belongs to an extension (and thus a completely different namespace) so its technically not a legal child of the Component element unless it has the proper namespace prefix.

Hi! Taken from the tutorial I slightly changed the code to the following: <Directory Id='INSTALLDIR' Name='Symphonia'> <Component Id='Settings' Guid='98789878-574D-4A9A-A266-5B5EC2C022A4'> <File Id='XmlSettings' Name='settings.xml' DiskId='1' Source='settings.xml' Vital='yes' /> <XmlFile Id='XmlSettings2' File='[INSTALLDIR]tools\settings.xml' Action='setValue' Name='value' Value='[SI_CUSTOMER_COMPANY_NAME]' ElementPath='//settings/[EMAIL PROTECTED]"SI_CUSTOMER_COMPANY_NAME"\]'/> </Component> </Directory> When compiling I get the error error CNDL0005 : The Component element contains an unexpected child element 'XmlFile'. As I can see from the docs and the tutorial, XmlFile _is_ child of component that's why I don't understand this message. What is going wrong here?
