Good Afternoon, I am trying to create an installer that will install an application that can be used by any user of the PC. It will also create a Start menu shortcut and a Desktop shortcut, for all users. I am running WiX 3.5 with Visual Studio 2010 on a Windows 7 machine. I am using heat on two different directories to generate fragments. I am using a XSLT against one of the fragments to insert the shortcuts into the fragment. I am running all the steps from NAnt, if that makes a difference.
Here is the XSL file: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; xmlns:wix="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" /> <xsl:template match="node() | @*"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()" /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="wix:File[@Source='!(wix.ImportSrc)\Import.exe']"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()" /> <xsl:text> 					</xsl:text> <xsl:element name="Shortcut" use-attribute-sets="StartMenu-Shortcut" namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; /> <xsl:text> 					</xsl:text> <xsl:element name="Shortcut" use-attribute-sets="Desktop-Shortcut" namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; /> <xsl:text> 				</xsl:text> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:attribute-set name="StartMenu-Shortcut"> <xsl:attribute name="Id">startmenuImport</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Directory">myStartDir</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Name">Import</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="WorkingDirectory">INSTALLLOCATION</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Icon">icnImport</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="IconIndex">0</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Advertise">yes</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> <xsl:attribute-set name="Desktop-Shortcut"> <xsl:attribute name="Id">desktopImport</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Directory">DesktopFolder</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Name">Import</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="WorkingDirectory">INSTALLLOCATION</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Icon">icnImport</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="IconIndex">0</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="Advertise">yes</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> </xsl:stylesheet> Here is my MSI.wxs that calls the fragments: <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Product Id="*" Name="Import.Installer" Language="1033" Version="1.2.3.4" Manufacturer="W Industries" UpgradeCode="MY_GUID"> <Package Id="*" InstallerVersion="310" Compressed="yes" Description=" Import and Protocol Installer" Manufacturer=" W Industries " InstallScope="perMachine" Platform="x86" InstallPrivileges="elevated" /> <Media Id="1" Cabinet="Import.cab" EmbedCab="yes" CompressionLevel="high" /> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id="MyRoot" Name=" W Industries "> <Directory Id="INSTALLLOCATION" Name=" Import"> <Directory Id="ProtocolDir" Name="Protocol" /> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> <Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder" Name="StartMenu"> <Directory Id="myStartDir" Name=" W Industries "/> </Directory> <Directory Id="DesktopFolder" Name="Desktop" /> </Directory> <Feature Id="ProductFeature" Title=" Import" Level="1"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="cgImport" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="cgProtocol" /> </Feature> <Icon Id="icnImport" SourceFile="!(wix.ImportSrc)\Import.exe" /> </Product> </Wix> I am getting the following errors from light: [light] C:\MyWiX\Scripts\MSI.wxs(42) : error LGHT1076 : ICE36: Icon Bloat. Icon icnImport is not used in the Class, Shortcut, or ProgID table and also not used for ARPPRODUCTICON property. [light] C:\MyWiX\Scripts\MSI.wxs(19) : error LGHT0204 : ICE64: The directory myStartDir is in the user profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table. I then tried adding the shortcut per: http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/create_start_menu_shortcut.htm and not using the XSL file. When I ran the compile this time and ran the resulting MSI, the Start menu folder was named something completely different and instead of a shortcut named Import, it was named PDF32.dll, which is one of the DLLs in the application's directory. The Start menu was not installed for all users and it was not removed during the uninstall. I am so frustrated and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Can anyone please shed some light?
