Hmm, that's weird.  There's nothing in the ImportStreams() method that would 
seem to hang.  Can you maybe get a debugger attached to the hung process and 
get a callstack? And then let it run a little longer and get another callstack 
(to see if it deadlocked or just in an infinite loop)?


If the whole machine is hung, then I'm going to be there is something more 
fundamentally wrong with the hardware/drivers of the machine because WiX 
doesn't do that much.  <smile/>

Subject: [WiX-users] light.exe hangs

I am running light.exe from binaries-2.0.3309.0.zip and it seems hangs when 
trying to build a 125 MB merge module.   I was running with -v0 and -notidy 
options and could see that after all the Cabbing the last thing it logged was:

Importing streams.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\rpcrt4.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\oleaut32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\msvcrt.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\gdi32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\comdlg32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\odbc32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\kernel32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\ntdll.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\shlwapi.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 's:/Ainstall/matlab/pbr/mcr/../../install/bin/win32
\frameworktest\frameworktest.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\advapi32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\odbccp32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 's:/Ainstall/matlab/pbr/mcr/../../install/bin/win32
\uninstallmcrpath\uninstallmcrpath.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\shell32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\user32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\ole32.dll'.
Importing binary stream from 'C:\WINNT\system32\msi.dll'.

It never got to print out "Laying out media."

It also may have hung the machine since nothing is responding at this point.  
This only happens sometimes.  It works fine on other machines.  Has anyone seen 
this before?
