I am installing the following modules:
<Merge Id="MM_CRT" Language="0"
SourceFile="$(var.REDIST)msvcrt.msm" DiskId="1" />
<Merge Id="MM_CP60" Language="0"
SourceFile="$(var.REDIST)msvcp60.msm" DiskId="1" />
<Merge Id="MM_CIRT" Language="0"
SourceFile="$(var.REDIST)msvcirt.msm" DiskId="1" />
<Merge Id="MM_MFC" Language="0"
SourceFile="$(var.REDIST)mfc42.msm" DiskId="1" />
<Merge Id="MM_OLE" Language="0"
SourceFile="$(var.REDIST)oleaut32.msm" DiskId="1" />
<Merge Id="MM_COM" Language="0"
SourceFile="$(var.REDIST)comcat.msm" DiskId="1" />
which, in terms of the files, is:
asycfilt.dll
comcat.dll
mfc42.dll
msvcirt.dll
msvcp60.dll
msvcrt.dll
oleaut32.dll
olepro32.dll
stdole2.tlb
At this time SystemFolder entry in my project.wxs is empty (i.e. serves
as the placeholder for the files that I'm about to add) and I am not
going to add any of the files listed above. So there should be no clash.
I am somewhat reluctant to let go of these modules, fearing that
something may still be missing on some Windows 2000 systems.

What's the list of files that you're trying to install from the merge
modules? The reason you're having difficulty finding a system without
them is that they've been included as part of the OS starting with
Windows 2000, and they are protected files anyway. So you may not need
to install mfc42, mfc42u, atl.dll, msvcrt etc.

Subject: [WiX-users] Merge Module system folder Id clash problem
I install some files in Windows System32 using directory declaration
like:
<Directory Id="SystemFolder" SourceName="System32">
...
Additionally, my project has VC++ 6 Merge Modules included and these
also refer to system folder, causing this warnings like the following:
Warning 2 The Directory table contains a row with primary key(s)
'SystemFolder' which cannot be merged from the merge module '.\Redist
\msvcp60.msm'. This is likely due to collision of rows with the same
primary key(s) (but other different values in other columns) between
the database and the merge module. C:\Users\Public\Documents\VS
Projects\WixTestProjects\MyProj\Main.wxs
I have a difficult time finding the machine on which VC 6 runtime is
not already installed, so I can not easily test if installation would
succeed on such a system in spite of this warning.
Does anybody have similar experiences with Merge Modules? What would
you recommend to avoid the warnings?
Thanks!
