Hi all,

I'm authoring an installer that contains several merge modules (among the other things):
- Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86.msm
- policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86.msm
- Microsoft_VC80_DebugCRT_x86.msm
- policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_DebugCRT_x86.msm

The installer has been building and installing fine for several months now. During the most recent builds, install has been failing with error 1334:

MSI (s) (3C:80) [22:47:18:718]: Note: 1: 2318 2: C:\WINDOWS\winsxs \x86_Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.762_x- ww_5490cd9f\msvcp80d.dll MSI (s) (3C:80) [22:47:18:718]: Note: 1: 1334 2: msvcp80d.dll. 8.0.50727.762.550B5BF0_FF32_EF74_FF1F_C8B3B9A1E18E 3: XXXXX.cab Error 1334. The file 'msvcp80d.dll. 8.0.50727.762.550B5BF0_FF32_EF74_FF1F_C8B3B9A1E18E' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'XXXXX.cab'. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package. MSI (s) (3C:80) [22:47:35:406]: Product: XXXXX -- Error 1334.

Not much changed in the .wxs file except for the addition of a couple unrelated files. The merge modules have been the same since the beginning.

I hit this before with a different installer quite awhile ago, and the solution was to use a newer version of WiX... I believe it was 2.0.4820.0 at the time. However, I don't have that option now because I'm already using the latest 2.0 and I'm not ready to switch to WiX3. (I'm not sure if the DifxApp stuff has stabilized for 3.0 yet, and I need it for this installer)

I know it has something to do with the sequencing of the file table vs. the cabinet, but I never found a cause/solution for this. Any ideas?

Thanks,
