Can you pop the final MSI open in Orca and see if the Merge Module contents are actually in there?

I have a Visual Studio 2008 Merge Module (containing Content Files and Project Output, and a couple of directories). If I reference this merge module from a normal VS 2008 Setup Project all files are installed as expected, however if I reference this merge module from a WIX (3) installer no files are output. I've run FILEMON while the install is taking place and it is looking in the correct location (c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ISV\...) to add the files, but FILEMON returns FILENOTFOUND errors. It seems like the Merge Module should be creating the directories, but is not. This only occurs when the main setup project is WIX - normal VS setup projects are fine. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; xmlns:iis="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/IIsExtension";> <Product Id="fb7b5480-3723-4b32-93bf-d2f28dc59ef3" Name="Agresso CRM for Education" Language="1033" Version="1.0.1" Manufacturer="Agresso Ltd" UpgradeCode="9bfa8877-676c-48d4-878b-6eb75e5ed341"> <Package InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" Description="Agresso CRM for Education" /> <Media Id="1" Cabinet="AgressoCRM.cab" EmbedCab="yes" /> <Property Id="CRMWWWROOT_PATH"> <RegistrySearch Id="MSCRM_WebSitePath" Root="HKLM" Type="raw" Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM" Name="WebSitePath"></RegistrySearch> </Property> <Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="INSTALLDIR"/> <UIRef Id="WixUI_Mondo" /> <UIRef Id="WixUI_ErrorProgressText" /> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="PFiles"> <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="Agresso Ltd"> <Directory Id="dir_AgressoLtd_AgressoCrm" Name="Agresso CRM"> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> <Directory Id="CRMWWWROOT_PATH"> <Directory Id="ISV" Name="ISV"> <Merge Id="merge_AgressoCRMBase" Language="1033" DiskId="1" SourceFile="C:\Development\Main\Sources\Agresso CRM\Sources\AgressoCRMBase\Base_MM\Debug\Base_MM.msm"></Merge> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> <CustomAction Id='AlreadyUpdated' Error='[ProductName] is already installed.' /> <CustomAction Id='NoDowngrade' Error='A later version of [ProductName] is already installed.' /> <InstallExecuteSequence> <Custom Action='AlreadyUpdated' After='FindRelatedProducts'>PATCHFOUND</Custom> <Custom Action='NoDowngrade' After='FindRelatedProducts'>NEWERFOUND</Custom> <RemoveExistingProducts After='InstallFinalize' /> <MsiPublishAssemblies Sequence='4000' /> <MsiUnpublishAssemblies Sequence='4001' /> </InstallExecuteSequence> <AdvertiseExecuteSequence> <MsiPublishAssemblies Sequence='4002'/> </AdvertiseExecuteSequence> <Feature Id="AgressoCRM_feat" Title="Agresso CRM for Education" Level="1" Description="The Agresso CRM for Education Product.
