As I understand it, the SourceDir property must be the root of the source
tree (the directory tree that the files and folders you are installing), and
it is set to be the directory location of the MSI file itself.

Can you move setup.msi to the Conent folder?

Subject: [WiX-users] Source files and MSI file location.

Hi!
Help me pls. I need to separate source files for the installation from 
.msi file.
Example (G:\ - name of the CD-drive):

G:\Setup\setup.msi - actual location of the .msi file)
G:\Conent\CD1\*.* - set of files and folders that i need to install.

How can i do this? I try to use Layout property of the Media element 
(like <Media ... Layout="..\Conent\CD1\"), and after build all needed 
source files lay in the right location (..\Conent\CD1\ relative to 
.msi). But during the install MSI shows an messagebox with something 
like "Cant find source file ... Verify that file exist and you can 
access it.". Also, i cant find anything useful in the log-file.

Help me please. Thanx!
