Hi,

I have recently started learing and working with WiX, and I have probably
some very simple problems that I cannot solve alone. I am googling for 3
days now, but nothing helps.
I am using Visual Studio 2017 and the better documented v3 version of the
WiX.

I have installed WiX tools 4, and 3.11 on my machine and also all the
corresponding VS integrations.

I have tried some samples in the web:
https://helgeklein.com/blog/2014/09/real-world-example-wix-msi-application-installer
and
https://www.firegiant.com/system/files/samples/SampleAskKey.zip

I also made the necessary changes in the projects, but I keep getting some
annoying error messages from the build:

    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol 'WixUI:WixUI_Mondo' in
section 'Product:{11112222-86C7-4D14-AEC0-86416A69ABDE}'. (70)
    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol

'Product:{11112222-86C7-4D14-AEC0-86416A69ABDE}'. (84)
    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol 'Dialog:SetupTypeDlg' in

    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol

    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol
'Dialog:LicenseAgreementDlg' in section 'Fragment:'. (15)
    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol 'Dialog:SetupTypeDlg' in
section 'Fragment:'. (21)
    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol 'Dialog:CancelDlg' in
section 'Fragment:'. (24)
    Error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol
'Binary:WixUI_Bmp_Banner' in section 'Fragment:'. (26)


It look like I have not installed something critical.

Please point me to the right direction. I am getting annoyed because I
think I missed something.

Thank you in advance.

Regards.
