This is dangerous territory. The docs explicitly say you can't do this:

And generally you need two MSI files for different architectures:

I think maybe Burn is your friend if you can have two packages and just get
the appropriate combination installed for a system.

Subject: [WiX-users] Third Party Merge Module Issue (32/64bit)

Hello

 

I have a third party merge module returning this error:

error LGHT0204: ICE80: This package contains 64 bit component

 

The error refers to a registry component.  My installer is 32bits and needs
to remain this way.  I initially had an installer built with VS2010 and all
this worked fine without any interaction from  me.  I am curious on learning
wix and want to convert this VS setup project to something more flexible.  I
have successfully included the VS MSMs to my package but this third party
MSM is mixing both 32 and 64bit components in the same MSM.

 

Any suggestions on how to deal with this in WIX.

 

Thanks for the help

Marc
