Sorry I haven't built packages for IIS, someone else with experience of this will need to weigh in here.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Adding ComponentGroupRef to directories Hi Pally, I understand that would be the expected outcome, but where are those components defined? My understanding is the heat uses these references to dynamically determine the components and their contents at compile time based on the contents of the referenced project. I can't find any actual definition of those component groups in the WiX project.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Adding ComponentGroupRef to directories ComponentRef's & ComponentGroups are used in your Feature Tree not your Directory Tree. If you want stuff to be in one place rather than another simply move the Component Elements & everything inside them to where you want them in your Directory Tree.

One of the projects is a WCF IIS project. Wix has automatically generated the following Product.Generated.wxs file: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Fragment> <ComponentGroup Id="Product.Generated"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Core.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Core.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Core.Satellites" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.IisHost.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.IisHost.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.IisHost.Satellites" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.ServiceContracts.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.ServiceContracts.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.ServiceContracts.Satellites" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.Satellites" /> </ComponentGroup> </Fragment> </Wix> My issue is that I want Binaries and Satellites groups to go to INSTALLLOCATION\bin with Content groups going to just INSTALLLOCATION. I have added the ComponentGroupRef to the product feature so it gets installed as requested, but I can't figure out how to assign different ComponentGroupRef items to different locations. My features set looks like this: <Feature Id="ProductFeature" Title="MyProject Service" Level="1" AllowAdvertise="no" InstallDefault="local" Absent="disallow" ConfigurableDirectory="INSTALLLOCATION"> <!-- Note: The following ComponentGroupRef is required to pull in generated authoring from project references. --> <ComponentGroupRef Id="Product.Generated" /> <ComponentRef Id="ServiceWebsite" /> <Feature Id="Postgres" Title="Postgres Support" Level="1" AllowAdvertise="no" InstallDefault="local" Absent="allow"> <ComponentRef Id="PostgresComponent" /> </Feature> </Feature> My directory structure looks like this: <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id="INSTALLLOCATION" Name="MyProject.Service"> <Directory Id="bin" Name="bin"> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> So I want an outcome like this: <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id="INSTALLLOCATION" Name="MyProject.Service"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Core.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.IisHost.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.ServiceContracts.Content" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.Content" /> <Directory Id="bin" Name="bin"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Core.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Core.Satellites" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.IisHost.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.IisHost.Satellites" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.ServiceContracts.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.ServiceContracts.Satellites" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.Binaries" /> <ComponentGroupRef Id="MyProject.Service.Satellites" /> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> Can someone point me in the right direction?
