I am able to add new files to MSI using the code pasted in my original post . Now, installing the msi throws error - -- Error 1334. The file '_FE8AEF51_FCC5_4155_B790_76E179FF7CBE' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'media1.cab'. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package.
I am using morphed GUIDs for FileIds of newly added files in the File Table. I cannot use the file names because there can be multiple files in different directories with the same name. The same FileId is provided in the KeyPath column of Component table. Looks like the installer is expecting a file with this name and not the real name. I ran Dark.exe to confirm the file is packaged in the msi. so, my question is, why is the installer not finding it? What am I missing here? Do I need to make any entry in property table?? Please let me know if I should provide more info. thanks, sangeeta -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/DTF-How-to-add-CAB-file-into-InstallPackage-tp5796761p5798580.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
