Hi all! I am unable to create an installer that installs the merge modules for MapInfo's MapXtreme 6.8.0. There are a total of 4 merge modules that I need to install:
MIFonts_6.8.0.msm MapInfoCoreEngine_6.8.0.msm MapInfoDesktop_6.8.0.msm MapInfoMXTConfig_6.8.0.msm I can install MIFonts_6.8.0.msm without problems. MapInfoMXTConfig_6.8.0.msm causes an unexpected Win32 error with code 0x065B: "Function failed during execution" in light.exe. MapInfoCoreEngine_6.8.0.msm and MapInfoDesktop_6.8.0.msm causes ICE 83 and ICE30 errors. I was able to "work around" the ICE83 (adding code) and ICE30 (suppress) errors but now I am stuck with the "unexpected Win32 error" caused by MapInfoMXTConfig_6.8.0.msm. Does anyone have any ideas on what to try? I am new to Wix and I so there is a definite possibility of user error here. Is my only option to contact MapInfo support? The strange thing is that if I include these merge modules in an installation created by Wise Installation Studio (Windows Installer Edition), they work fine (or at least I can create an MSI that installs them). Here is my source code example that I am trying to get to work, I am using Wix version 3.0.5217.0: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Product Id="8d7c4545-3fd5-4108-a1eb-fc79bfe6877d" Name="MergeTest" Language="1033" Version="1.0.0.0" Manufacturer="Acme" UpgradeCode="6f759b4a-6be5-4568-8dab-96f4c583ad45"> <Package InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" /> <Media Id="1" Cabinet="media1.cab" EmbedCab="yes" /> <!-- BEGIN: Corrects bug in MapXtreme merge modules... --> <AdvertiseExecuteSequence> <MsiPublishAssemblies/> </AdvertiseExecuteSequence> <InstallExecuteSequence> <MsiPublishAssemblies/> <MsiUnpublishAssemblies/> </InstallExecuteSequence> <!-- END: Corrects bug in MapXtreme merge modules... --> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id="INSTALLLOCATION" Name="TextTxtFolder"> <Component Id="TestTxtComponentId" Guid="{04C1801F-45EC-4c03-9E47-C362D19767FD}"> <File Id="TestTxtFileId" KeyPath="yes" Source="test.txt" /> </Component> <Merge Id="MIFonts" Language="1033" SourceFile="MIFonts_6.8.0.msm" DiskId="1"/> <Merge Id="MICore" Language="1033" SourceFile="MapInfoCoreEngine_6.8.0.msm" DiskId="1" /> <Merge Id="MIDesktop" Language="1033" SourceFile="MapInfoDesktop_6.8.0.msm" DiskId="1" /> <Merge Id="MIConfig" Language="1033" SourceFile="MapInfoMXTConfig_6.8.0.msm" DiskId="1" /> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> <Feature Id="ProductFeature" Title="mxmerge" Level="1"> <ComponentRef Id="TestTxtComponentId"/> <MergeRef Id="MIFonts" /> <MergeRef Id="MICore" /> <MergeRef Id="MIDesktop" /> <MergeRef Id="MIConfig" /> </Feature> </Product> </Wix> BR, Fredrik ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
