The command line for candle and light changed from v2 to v3, you know specify extension like this -ext WixIIsExtension or -ext WiXUtilExtension (I can't remember what pcaext was). As you have run WiXCop on your file the schema at the top of the file will point you to the correct extension.

When I ran candle.exe, I got the below error; ************************************************************************* Starting WiX Build ************************************************************************* STARTING: Wix Cop COMPLETED: Wix Cop STARTING: Candle candle.exe : error CNDL0144 : The extension 'pcaext' could not be loaded because of the following reason: Could not load file or assembly 'file:///E:\AJ\SSCM\SSCM Installers\Service installers\Web services farm\SSCMPoisonMessageServiceInstaller.root\SSCMPoisonMessageService_2_0_Installer\pcaext' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. ********************** Candle FAILED: 144 ********************** What is the reason for this error and how can I resolve it? I could not find pcaext.dll in Wix installed path as well.
