I've just tried that, and it doesn't work. The error message goes away, and the 32 bit component is correctly installed to CommonFilesFolder, but the 64 bit component from the merge module is dropped into D:\ (the drive with the most free space), rather than being put into ProgramFiles64Folder.
Thank you for the suggestion, though. -- Cheers, John On 14/12/2009 22:51, Sascha Beaumont wrote: > I came across an almost identical problem last week :) I'm guessing > it's because your merge module is defined as a subcomponent of a > 64-bit folder > >> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> >> <Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder"> >> <Merge Id="wmm" Language="0" DiskId="1" >> SourceFile="$(var.WixMergeModule1.TargetPath)" /> >> </Directory> >> </Directory> > > Try this instead: > > <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> > <Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder" /> > <Merge Id="wmm" Language="0" DiskId="1" > SourceFile="$(var.WixMergeModule1.TargetPath)" /> > </Directory> > > Cheers, > Sascha > > On Tue, Dec 15, 2009 at 12:16 AM, John Aldridge<j...@jjdash.demon.co.uk> > wrote: >> I want to have an (x64) merge module which installs some 64 bit files to >> MergeRedirectFolder, and some 32 bit files to the 32 bit >> CommonFilesFolder.
