>Can you attach your wix file Or let us know the exact CNDL error?
Sure, it should be attached now, but it's only essentially what the tool
produces from the IDE.
There is no CNDL error once I add a manufacturer name - perhaps I phrased
that poorly.

Subject: [WiX-users] How to get started with WiX in VS IDE?
I've installed the latest version of WiX (V3.6.3206.0) in VS 2012 and have
followed the "Creating a Simple Setup" item under "Working in Visual
Studio".
After adding a value for "Manufacturer" (something not mentioned in the help
topic) as it causes error CNDL0006, the project builds and produces 2 files,
the MSI and a .wixpdb.
The build output shows:
1. The test console application builds
2. Candle is run
3. Light is run.
There are no errors or warnings shown.
However, installing the MSI doesn't install the EXE, or produce an entry in
Add/Remove. After having run the MSI, attempting to use the MSI uninstall
results in the error message "This action is only valid for products that
are currently installed." which reinforces my assumption that the
installation did nothing.
Knowing very little about WiX so far, I think the "harvest" facility hasn't
worked (the harvest property is set to true) - but never having used WiX
before, I don't know what should happen to know any better.
Am I missing something, or is something missing in the instructions, or is
something broken?
