I have seen this before and I think it is because you have a period in the component name, try simply using this syntax: <Component> <File Source="...." /> </Component>
You component id will then be the filename.

I'm attempting to use the GUID="*" (Autogen ) on the components. However, on each of the component statments I am getting an ICE08 Component ... has a duplicate GUID. The GUID value in the error message is the same for all 3 errors (component lines). Can you only autogen 1 GUID in a wix install or am I using it incorrectly? I'm using VS2010, Wix version 3.6.1112.0.
