All,
I'm trying to create a very simple WiX MSI installer consisting of two files, 
however I'm receiving the following build error from light.exe:

The system cannot find the file '..\BizTalk Message Archiving Component 
Properties\bin\Deployment\Modhul.BizTalk.Pipelines.ArchiveMessages.Properties.dll'
 with type ''.

The file exists and the relative path appears to be correct given that the 
error message changes (it drops the 'with type' bit) when I change the path 
(i.e. make it invalid).

FYI, my current WiX file is as follows:

<Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="BizTalk Message Archiving Component">
        <Component Id="MessageArchivingComponent" 
Guid="001264bb-1e01-4286-9b4c-356ec7b8bb77">
                <File Id='ArchiveMessagesComponentDll' 
Name='Modhul.BizTalk.PipelineComponents.ArchiveMessagesComponent.dll' 
DiskId='1' 
Source='..\BizTalkMessageArchivingComponent\bin\Release\Modhul.BizTalk.PipelineComponents.ArchiveMessagesComponent.dll'
 Vital='yes' />
        </Component>
        <Component Id="MessageArchivingComponentProperties" 
Guid="0d5d9c57-b8ed-457a-810d-25d1b2deab13">
                <File Id='ArchiveMessagesPropertiesDll' 
Name='Modhul.BizTalk.Pipelines.ArchiveMessages.Properties.dll' DiskId='1' 
Source='..\BizTalk Message Archiving Component 
Properties\bin\Deployment\Modhul.BizTalk.Pipelines.ArchiveMessages.Properties.dll'
 Vital='yes' />
        </Component>
</Directory>

I am running the latest build of WiX 3.0 with Votive. I am using Visual Studio 
2005 to build the project.

Any help on this one greatly appreciated.

Kind regards, Nick.
