The auto harvesting doesn't include referenced assemblies, there is an
outstanding bug/feature request for this. IMO harvesting is a useful (or
in this case not so useful) first pass but not something that should be
relied upon. I tend to manually harvest the build output folder and then
make this install look the way I want it.

Subject: [WiX-users] VS2010 Not Harvesting Everything?

I added a simple WiX project to my Visual Studio 2010 solution, added an
MVC web site and a Win32 Service as project references. I set the
reference properties to automatically Harvest.

When the MSI was built, just the .exe and .pdb from the Service was
included, but not the project ouput references that it had (another 40
files). Also, the MVC web was included but not in a deployed state as it
would be if I selected it in the VS GUI and chose "deploy".

What did I miss?


Thanks.
