Hello I'm still new to Wix and I have a problem with a "duplicate symbol". I have a source file which contains both a MajorUpgrade section and a RemoveExistingProducts section:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Product Id="*" Name="My Product" Language="1033" Version="0.1.0.0" Manufacturer="CMFT" UpgradeCode="60dccb53-952c-44cf-acfc-9e45953b0ec3"> <Package InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" InstallScope="perMachine" /> <MajorUpgrade DowngradeErrorMessage="A newer version of [ProductName] is already installed." /> <MediaTemplate EmbedCab="yes" /> <UIRef Id="WixUI_FeatureTree" /> <Feature Id="FT_ClientService" Title="Client Service" Level="1" > <ComponentGroupRef Id="CMPGRP_ClientService" /> </Feature> <Feature Id="FT_ScenarioRunner" Title="Scenario Runner" Level="1"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="CMPGRP_ScenarioRunner" /> </Feature> <Feature Id="FT_SupportClassLibrary" Title="Support Class Library" Level="1"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="CMPGRP_SupportClassLibrary" /> </Feature> <InstallExecuteSequence> <RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallValidate" /> </InstallExecuteSequence> </Product> <Fragment> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id="DIR_CMFT" Name="CMFT_Alternate"> <Directory Id="DIR_EPR" Name="EPR"> <Directory Id="DIR_CLIENTSERVICE" Name="Client Service" /> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> </Fragment> </Wix> The above produces the error: Duplicate symbol 'WixAction:InstallExecuteSequence/RemoveExistingProducts' found. This typically means that an Id is duplicated. Check to make sure all your identifiers of a given type (File, Component, Feature) are unique. I have found an answer to a similar question here: http://sourceforge.net/p/wix/mailman/message/28470823/ But I'm afraid the answer means nothing to me and I could do with further explanation. Can anybody provide me with a little more of a noob friendly answer please?
