Subject: [WiX-users] Bug in dark.exe? I am de-compiling a MSI generated with InstallShield 11.5. I got an error on table CustomAction. I also found this link to the same problem: http://www.nabble.com/--wix-Bugs-1976057---dark-fails-on-Wise-MSI-due-to-Une xpectedColumnCount-td17552116.html When I look at the InstallShield MSI file with Orca, The CustomAction table looks just fine. I was using Wix 3.0.4214 and got the following error (and no .wxs file was generated): "C:\Program Files\WixEdit\wix-3.0.4214.0\dark" DB.msi DB.wxs -x db Microsoft (R) Windows Installer Xml Decompiler version 3.0.4214.0 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.
