I have two installers for our project, one for 32 bit and one for 64 bit and I'm running into some problems with the x64 version.
My first question, is there a tutorial for how to build x64 installers with wix 2.0 somewhere? I could have sworn I saw a link to one at some point, but I can't find any such links in the Documentation sections on wix.sourceforge, and I don't see anything on the subject in the tutorial on Tramontana. The specific problem in this case is the x64 installer was working just fine but someone pointed out that one of the files was 32 bit and thus should be installed to "Program Files (x86)" instead of the normal Program Files folder. The component already had "Win64="no"" set, so I figured I needed to add a ProgramFilesFolder Directory as well as the ProgramFiles64Folder directory, but that caused errors such as "Duplicate symbol 'Directory:INSTALLDIR'" found. So I started looking around for how to have the hierarchies beneath both ProgramFilesFolder and ProgramFiles64Folder mirror each other. Instead what I found was a post claiming "I don't think you want to reference ProgramFiles64Folder either. Use ProgramFilesFolder and Windows Installer will put things in the correct directory based upon the Component's Win64 setting." I tried that out, and instead _everything_ got installed to "Program Files (x86)", regardless of what its Win64 tag was set to. I have " InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" Platforms="x64"" in the Package element, and "Win64="yes"" for all the components (except the one that's _supposed_ to end up in the x86 folder of course.) So was that post wrong and I need to find a different method, and if so what? Or was that post right and I'm trying to implement it incorrectly?
