You still have unmatched element pairs something like this. <Directory> -- This is on line 57 <Component> ... </Component> -- this is on line 62
You need to remove a <Directory> or add a </Directory> somewhere that is appropriate to your code. Use a folding editor or auto-format your document to introduce clearer indenting to help you locate the missing/extra element. Sometimes it pays for someone else to look over the code, they can see subtle errors that you are blind to.

It could be great if anyone can suggest me on the below. 3) Not a valid source file; detail: The 'Directory' start tag on line 57 does not match the end tag of 'Component'.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Error while building WXS file. Hi, Wix files are XML based and as such follow its syntax rules. Elements have to be self closing <wibble /> Or in pairs with an opening <wibble> and closing </wibble> element. The error is fairly literal, you have a <Directory> with an unmatched </Directory> Maybe you have a typo, if you can't spot it you could post the code in an email to the list.
