Wix XML Error - The Component/#Directory attribute cannot be specified when the Component element is nested underneath a Directory element - wix

Question

First time doing some Wix practice, so im completely new to it.
Here is my short script:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi">
<Product Id="*" Name="SampleMSI" Language="1033" Version="1.0.0.0" Manufacturer="Nunya" UpgradeCode="b2c39f9b-1de1-433e-bc59-a3548cc531b9">
<Package InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" InstallScope="perMachine" Description="Installs Signout Utility" Keywords="Practice,Signout,Utility,MSI,Installer" />
<MajorUpgrade DowngradeErrorMessage="A newer version of [ProductName] is already installed." />
<MediaTemplate />
<Feature Id="ProductFeature" Title="SampleMSI" Level="1">
<ComponentGroupRef Id="ProductComponents" />
</Feature>
</Product>
<Fragment>
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="INSTALLFOLDER" Name="SampleMSI" />
<Directory Id="APPFOLDER" Name="APPDir" >
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Fragment>
<Fragment>
<ComponentGroup Id="ProductComponents" Directory="INSTALLFOLDER">
<Component Id="CMP_ADispOCX"
Guid="5E23B839-35CA-480E-8AFC-2E914BA8E32A"
Directory="INSTALLLOCATION">
<File Id="FILE_ADispocx"
Source="ADisp.ocx"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
<Component Id="CMP_Abtn32ocx"
Guid="98B357F2-C295-4019-A878-885E56AA3BF3"
Directory="INSTALLLOCATION">
<File Id="FILE_Abtn32a20ocx"
Source="btn32a20.ocx"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
</ComponentGroup>
</Fragment>
</Wix>
I just wanted to make sure they are going to the same folder, basic installation check. (it is my first time)
I get this error however:
Error 2 The Component/#Directory attribute cannot be specified when the Component element is nested underneath a Directory element.
I get it twice for each component id I have.
Am I missing something? Im using Wix 3.6 A Developers Guide for reference.
edit: Side question......how do I specify an exact path? like C:\Herp\Derp

Answer 1

You don't need to specify the directory of a Component if you did so already in the ComponentGroup element. Remove the Directory attribute in both Components elements in your fragment.
Change your code to this
<Fragment>
<ComponentGroup Id="ProductComponents" Directory="INSTALLFOLDER">
<Component Id="CMP_ADispOCX"
Guid="5E23B839-35CA-480E-8AFC-2E914BA8E32A">
<File Id="FILE_ADispocx"
Source="ADisp.ocx"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
<Component Id="CMP_Abtn32ocx"
Guid="98B357F2-C295-4019-A878-885E56AA3BF3">
<File Id="FILE_Abtn32a20ocx"
Source="btn32a20.ocx"
KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>
</ComponentGroup>
</Fragment>
