WiX - register ComPlus app and assign role to component

I have my installer that registers my COMPLus correctly. I have one final requirement: Ensure component level access is checked In the Roles section, the User role is checked.

I tried to add complus: ComPlusCompoent as a child of my ComPlusAssembly, but when I do that, the installer fails. (See below) I'm not sure what I should put as the CLSID, maybe this is what is causing the problem? Can anyone help me? Explain what should I put for CLSID?

WiX error and snippet below Note: If I remove complus: ComPlusComponent element then installer works fine: My User 'ComponentUser' is defined above Role and user are assigned in component but not checked.

Yes, it was the CLSID. The previous installers used a vb script for this compoenet and projects don't need a static CLSID, so it was listed in projects.

I needed to add a Guid attribute for a specific class and then use this guide in the WiX ComPlusComponent clsid.



Hope this helps someone.
