That means it can't find the type library. What do you have in the WiX (or the
MSI) for HKCR\Typelib\{typelib guid}\<versions>\win32 ? It needs to be a path
to where the COM Dll was installed. I think I'd expect the WiX to have
[#filekey] for the location.

Subject: [WiX-users] COM registration problems
Hi all,
Im having serious problems with a registration of a com-dll.
When I install it manually with regsvr32, everything works fine.
To install it with wix I do the following:
1. Create a wix file with a component-element containing a file-element
pointing to my my dll.
2. Use tallow to extract registration information from my dll. (tallow with
the -s option)
3. Put the regentry-elements in the same component-element as my dll
file-element.
4. Use candle and light to produce my MSI.
Is it something Im missing here?
After installation the dll is visible in the com-ole viewer, but when I try to
open it the viewer says "TYPE_E_CANTLOADLIBRARY ($80029C4A)". The same error
occurs when I try to use it in my applications.
Any help appreciated!
/Tobias
