xml - WiX Project VS 2015 Directories are not created -


i followed simple youtube instruction video on how basic wix setup create msi file. purpose place files directories , make 4 registry entries. did setup project built vs 2015 great result. wix project not work. first time working xml too.

for example, here defined directories:

<fragment> <directory id="programfilesfolder" name="programfiles">     <directory id="msofficefolder" name="microsoft office">       <directory id="office14folder" name="office14" />         <directory id="library" name="library">         <directory id="makro" name="makro">                         </directory>       </directory>     </directory>         </directory> </fragment>

here put files folders:

<!-- adding files office14 folders --> <fragment>   <directoryref id="office14folder">     <component id="umrch.hlp" guid="*">       <file id="umrch.hlp" source="mysourcefiles\umrch.hlp" keypath="yes"  checksum="yes"/>     </component>   </directoryref>    <directoryref id="library">     <component id="umrch.xla" guid="*">       <file id="umrch.xla" source="mysourcefiles\umrch.xla" keypath="yes"  checksum="yes"/>     </component>   </directoryref>    <directoryref id="makro">     <component id="umrch.xla" guid="*">       <file id="umrch.xla" source="mysourcefiles\umrch.xla" keypath="yes"  checksum="yes"/>     </component>   </directoryref>     <!-- adding files company folders-->   <directoryref id="data">     <component id="datafiles" guid="*">       <file id="defumrch.dat" source="mysourcefiles\defumrch.dat"  keypath="yes" checksum="yes"/>       <file id="ll_umrch.dat" source="mysourcefiles\ll_umrch.dat"  keypath="no" checksum="yes"/>     </component>   </directoryref>    <directoryref id="version">     <component id="versionfiles" guid="*">       <file id="umrch_readme.doc" source="mysourcefiles\umrch_readme.doc"  keypath="yes" checksum="yes"/>        <file id="umrch_version.txt" source="mysourcefiles\umrch_version.txt"  keypath="no" checksum="yes"/>     </component>   </directoryref>     <!-- adding files windows folder-->   <directoryref id="windowsfolder">     <component id="windowsfiles" guid="">      <file id="umrch.dll" source="mysourcefiles\umrch.dll" keypath="yes"  checksum="yes"/>       <file id="umrch.lib" source="mysourcefiles\umrch.lib" keypath="no"  checksum="yes"/>       <file id="umrch.mif" source="mysourcefiles\umrch.mif" keypath="no"  checksum="yes"/>     </component>   </directoryref> </fragment>

and here should installed:

    <fragment>   <!-- tell wix install files -->   <feature id="xlahelp" title="xla , files" level="1">     <componentref id="umrch.hlp" />     <componentref id="umrch.xla" />   </feature>    <feature id="companyfiles" title="company files" level="1">     <componentref id="datafiles" />     <componentref id="versionfiles" />   </feature>    <feature id="windowsfiles" title="windows files" level="1">     <componentref id="windowsfiles" />   </feature>    <feature id="registry" title="umrch" level="1">     <componentgroupref id="registry"/>   </feature> </fragment>

are there references missing or did wrongly use xml?

edit: here product wix

<product id="*" name="umrch" language="1033" version="1.0.0.0" manufacturer="sample" upgradecode="ee45fb60-6741-4424-8136-dfc0d679629a">     <package installerversion="200" compressed="yes" installscope="permachine" />      <majorupgrade downgradeerrormessage="a newer version of [productname] installed." />     <mediatemplate />   </product>

edit stein Åsmul:

data , version should defined here:

  <fragment> <directory id="windowsvolume" name="windowsvolume">    <directory id="!(bind.property.manufacturer)" name="!(bind.property.manufacturer)">      <directory id="umrch" name="!(bind.property.productname)" />       <directory id="data" name="data">       <directory id="version" name="version" />           </directory>      </directory>    </directory>

it compile when using wix. .msi file built without errors occuring. when opening superorca, shows tab _validation, since new have no idea on how read .msi within orca though.

i added gist github better visibility.

product/registry

does file compile @ when using wix? looks have not defined of directories install to. example data , version. if output msi file, when open orca? have run validation on msi?

i "evolve" answer once have updated question more detail. let's try minimize use of comments "discussion".
