Subject: [wix-users] Fwd: Bootstrapper Bundle Link Error

Hi,
  in my continuing quest to reduce duplication in our installer code, I have changed our code from having 2 bundle files (one for including prerequisites in the installer, the other for downloading them at install time), to having only 1 bundle file with 2 associated fragments.  So I compile and link the bundle twice, using a different fragment file for each.

When I run light.exe (both times), I get the following error:

UAFrameworkBundle.wxs(33) : error LGHT0094 : Unresolved reference to symbol 'ChainPackageGroup:NetFx48' in section 'Bundle:UsefulApp 9.1'.

I can't see what is wrong with the code.  Can anyone else see what is wrong here?

Here's the relevant code...

UAFrameworkBundle.wxs:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"

        </Chain>
      </Bundle>

      <Fragment Id='UAFrag'>
        <PackageGroup Id='UAFrameworkPackGroup'>
          ...
        </PackageGroup>

      </Fragment>
    </Wix>

UAFrameworkOfflineFrag.wxs (UAFrameworkOnlineFrag.wxs is similar):

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"
         xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension">

            DetectCondition="(Netfx48FullVersion="4.8.03761") AND (NOT VersionNT64 OR (Netfx48x64FullVersion="4.8.03761"))"
            InstallCondition="(VersionNT >= v6.0 OR VersionNT64 >= v6.0) AND (NOT (Netfx48FullVersion >= "4.8.03761" OR Netfx48x64FullVersion >= "4.8.03761"))">
            <ExitCode Behavior="forceReboot" Value="1641" />
            <ExitCode Behavior="forceReboot" Value="3010" />
            <ExitCode Behavior="error" Value="5100" />
            <ExitCode Behavior="error" Value="1603" />
            <ExitCode Behavior="success" Value="0" />
          </ExePackage>
        </PackageGroup>
      </Fragment>

      <Fragment>
        <util:RegistrySearch
          Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64"
          Variable="CPP2017Redist" Value="Installed" Result="value"/>

        <PackageGroup Id="redist_vc14">
          <ExePackage Id="vc14" Cache="no" PerMachine="yes" Vital="yes"
Compressed="yes" Permanent="yes"
            SourceFile=".\libs\vcredist_2017_x64.exe"
            InstallCommand="/quiet /norestart"
            DetectCondition="CPP2017Redist" />
        </PackageGroup>
      </Fragment>
    </Wix>

I compile & link them with:
  candle.exe -arch x64 -dVersionNumber=%Version% -dUpgradeCode=%UPGRADECODEGUID% -dTruncatedVersion=%TRUNCATEDVERSION% -ext WixUtilExtension -ext WixBalExtension -ext WixUIExtension -ext WixNetFxExtension -ext WixDependencyExtension UAFrameworkOfflineFrag.wxs UAFrameworkBundle.wxs
  light.exe -ext WixUIExtension -ext WixBalExtension -ext WixUtilExtension -ext WixNetFxExtension -ext WixDependencyExtension -out UsefulApp_%Version%_InstallerOffline.exe UAFrameworkOfflineFrag.wixobj UAFrameworkBundle.wixobj
