[WiX-users] Wix-3.0 and existing Merge Modules

Wed, 23 Aug 2006 18:08:40 -0700 

Hi,

I recently converted one of my Wix-2.0 projects to Wix-3.0.
The project uses multiple merge modules obtained from InstallShield (as we use InstallShield X too).
In particular, I am using the OLEAUT32.MSM, COMCAT.MSM and MSVBVM60.MSM merge modules (plus others, MSXML4, Common Controls etc). 

I am inserting the modules using:

...
         <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="MyLocation">
<Merge Id="COMCATMERGE" DiskId="1" SourceFile="C:\Merge Modules\COMCAT.MSM" Language="0" /> <Merge Id="OLEAUT32MERGE" DiskId="1" SourceFile="C:\Merge Modules\OLEAUT32.MSM" Language="0" /> <Merge Id="VB6SP6RUNTIMEMERGE" DiskId="1" SourceFile="C:\Merge Modules\MSVBVM60.MSM" Language="0" /> 
            ...
         </Directory>
...

  <Feature
     Id="ProductFeature"
     Title="Program Files"
     Level="1"
     InstallDefault="local"
     AllowAdvertise="no"
     ConfigurableDirectory="INSTALLDIR"
     TypicalDefault="install">

     <MergeRef Id="OLEAUT32MERGE"/>
     <MergeRef Id="COMCATMERGE"/>
     <MergeRef Id="VB6SP6RUNTIMEMERGE"/>
   </Featue>

Candle doesn't produce any errors.

When I Light, I receive multiple errors:

If I don't use the merge modules, I don't receive any errors.
Does this mean I cannot use old merge modules with Wix-3.0 since they are using an older database? 

Or have I done something terribly wrong!?

Any response/help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

David.
