Hi,

I just upgraded to WiX v3.0.4109.0 and none of my solutions compile. I've tried to use both Wix3.msi and Wix3_64.msi installers and no joy so far.

When I used Wix3.msi I got the following error when I compiled my solution from within VS 2005:

Error 1 The element <ProjectDefineConstants> beneath element <PropertyGroup> is unrecognized. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.0\Wix.targets 978 8 GameService.Installer

when I tried to compile it using msbuild nant task I got the following error:

ld] (Compile target) ->
[msbuild] C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.0\Wix.targets(1181,5): error MSB6004: The specified task executable location "C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\candle.exe" is invalid.
[msbuild]
[msbuild] 6 Warning(s)
[msbuild] 1 Error(s)

When I used Wix3_64.msi I got the same errors. I actually managed to get msbuild nant task working by coping C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3 into C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3.
