Hi Peter,
I only find one reference to the missing components:
MSI (s) (18:04) [11:55:50:138]: Executing op:
ComponentRegister(ComponentId={FEA74860-747D-4065-ABB8-7921CEE2BAF3},KeyPath=C:\cmsoft\60970\10021.Ver,State=3,,Disk=1,SharedDllRefCount=0,BinaryType=0)
MSI (s) (18:04) [11:55:50:140]: Executing op:
ComponentRegister(ComponentId={027A9F27-B80E-4914-9C89-073012511CF3},KeyPath=C:\cmsoft\60970\SurvApp
- Copy.INI,State=3,,Disk=1,SharedDllRefCount=0,BinaryType=0)
The first is a missing one, the second, seemingly identical in character, is
one which survives.
On the other hand,
MSI (s) (18:04) [11:55:51:036]: Executing op:
FileCopy(SourceName=qfix30zb.ini|SurvApp -
Copy.INI,SourceCabKey=Fc3cde52e85bc4,DestName=SurvApp -
Copy.INI,Attributes=4608,FileSize=131,PerTick=32768,,VerifyMedia=1,,,,,CheckCRC=0,,,InstallMode=58982400,HashOptions=0,HashPart1=-482575987,HashPart2=-268032772,HashPart3=916218091,HashPart4=1544468535,,)
MSI (s) (18:04) [11:55:51:037]: File: C:\cmsoft\60970\SurvApp - Copy.INI;
To be installed; Won't patch; No existing file
a reference of this sort exists for each of the files that survive.

What does a verbose log say about the disappearing components ?

Subject: [WiX-users] MSP question
Hi everyone,
I'm using pyro to attempt to generate an .MSP file to use. In its .wxs, I have
(for now) a single componentref which seems to work out ok, i.e. the patch
successfully installs the additional file referenced by the new component.
However, for some reason, the .MSP also as part of its operation removes some
of the original files: not all of them and with seemingly no pattern. Each
component "lost" a few files. All I can see is that the ones which did not
survive the upgrade are ones flagged with a 512 attribute in the File
Attributes column; the ones which made it are 4608 (i.e. 512+4096), which as
far as I can tell is correct in this context. This prompts the question: what
would create any difference between some files and others? My .wxs for the full
MSI seems to contain all the files referenced properly. All files are
keypath="yes" for what that's worth ...
For example, under one directory:
<Component Id="F38afa489ded74"
Guid="fea74860-747d-4065-abb8-7921cee2baf3">
<File Id="F38afa489ded74" Source="c:\cmsoft\60970\10021.Ver"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
<Component Id="Fc3cde52e85bc4"
Guid="027a9f27-b80e-4914-9c89-073012511cf3">
<File Id="Fc3cde52e85bc4" Source="c:\cmsoft\60970\SurvApp - Copy.INI"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
<Component Id="F55ff3f88e49d4"
Guid="a38fc47d-8d1b-4a0e-91da-2b9e9becac10">
<File Id="F55ff3f88e49d4" Source="c:\cmsoft\60970\SURVAPP.exe"
KeyPath="yes" Checksum="yes" />
</Component>
<Component Id="F638bbbdf0bfd4"
Guid="90e0f205-be97-419b-88f8-41a5bcc94be8">
<File Id="F638bbbdf0bfd4" Source="c:\cmsoft\60970\SurvApp.INI"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
<Component Id="F647d809bd1b64"
Guid="86717730-1a04-4bb5-8dfb-83b844da4167">
<File Id="F647d809bd1b64" Source="c:\cmsoft\60970\Vsconfig.mdb"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
Only fileid="Fc3cde52e85bc4" made it.
Even the number of "surviving" files is variable (it isn't as if it was only
1 or only the first few, etc.)
The strange IDs, BTW, come from me generating this with an installerbuilder
application I am working on to help automate installer package making for us.
