After using the latest CUB files and specifying "LocalAppDataFolder" as
mentioned in the previous posts, I received a couple of ICE messages.
Here are lines 14-16 of my "TEST.wxs" file:
<Component Id="AjaxPanel.js_Component"
Guid="{639433E1-CDE0-40F2-8431-F147566B442C}">
<File Id="AjaxPanel.js" Name="AjaxPanel.js" KeyPath="yes"
ShortName="AJAXPA~1.JS" DiskId="1" Source="C:\...\AjaxPanel.js" />
</Component>
The Directory tag structure in which the Component is nested is:
TARGETDIR\LocalAppDataFolder\INSTALLDIR\Ajax
When I run light.exe on the wixobj, I receive the following error and
warning:
C:\...\TEST.wxs(14) : error LGHT0204 : ICE38: Component
AjaxPanel.js_Component installs to user profile. It must use a registry key
under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file.
C:\...\TEST.wxs(15) : warning LGHT1076 : ICE91: The file 'AjaxPanel.js' will
be installed to the per user directory 'AJAXPANEL' that doesn't vary based
on ALLUSERS value.
I am not sure why I'm receiving these messages. Any thoughts as to what I
might be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Michael

The latest .cub files are part of Orca. So you need to install Orca and
then copy the .cubs out of the Orca install directory.

You probably want to use LocalAppDataFolder so the code doesn't try to
roam. To make a per-user setup, you want to use
Package/@InstallPrivileges="limited" so WiX marks the package as being
LUA compliant.
