[WiX-users] Problems building under VS2005 and votive v3 under Vista

[Frank Mayer-Potschak]

Hello,

 

I need some help, I'm new to wix and trying around a little bit with it.

First I was using Votive v2 under VS 2005 and Vista, it worked fine, but
I couldn't access any User Interfaces.

So I uninstalled v2 and installed the latest v3 release and also the VS
add on.

 

When I try to build the Solution the following error occurs:

 

Error      1             "Light.exe" exited with code -532459699.
C:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.0\Wix.targets
1115      6             WixProject3

 

The source is quite simple:

                                   </File>              

                             </Component>

                        </Directory>

                  </Directory>      

                  <Directory Id ="ProgramMenuFolder" Name ="PMenu" >

                        <Directory Id ="ProgramMenuDir" Name
="TestApp"/>

                  </Directory>        

            </Directory>

            <Feature Id="ProductFeature" Title="an feature" Level="1">

                  <ComponentRef Id="ProductComponent" />

            </Feature>

      </Product>

</Wix>

 

Maybe I'm doing a stupid beginners mistake, but can you please help me??

 

Thanks!

 

Frank
