I also confirm that it does not work. I ended up specifying full path names for every File element.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] FileSource attribute of the Directory Element Yes, that should work. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Mitchell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, December 29, 2008 14:51 To: [email protected] Subject: [WiX-users] FileSource attribute of the Directory Element There is not a lot of documentation on the FileSource attribute, so what I am wondering is if I have a Directory element with FileSource specified like so: ...snippet... <Directory Id="myDir" Name="My Dir" FileSource="C:\SourceFiles\"> <Component Id="Component1" Guid="[some guid]"> <File Source="numberonefile.xml" KeyPath="no" /> <File Source="numbertwofile.xml" KeyPath="no" /> ...more files... </Component> </Directory> Shouldn't that work as shown? Or, must I specify file paths in the Source attribute, e.g. <File Source="SourceFiles\numberonefile.xml" KeyPath="no" /> ? Brian C.
