When I add the = in the Substitution line: <Substitution Table="CustomAction" Row="setFoo" Column="Target" Value="[=fooProperty]"/>
The my install build fails with the following: light.exe(0,0): error LGHT0001: Encountered an unexpected merge error of type 'msmErrorDataRequestFailed' for which there is currently no error message to display. More information about the merge and the failure can be found in the merge log: 'C:\Users\timm\AppData\Local\Temp\1pzznh02\merge.log' The merge module itself builds okay, but the parent projects that has this Merge module will fail with the above error. And it will then give me errors on all other merge modules that are also in the parent project: light.exe(0,0): error LGHT0001: Encountered an unexpected merge error of type 'msmErrorDataRequestFailed' for which there is currently no error message to display. More information about the merge and the failure can be found in the merge log: 'C:\Users\timm\AppData\Local\Temp\qk5zabe1\merge.log' light.exe(0,0): error LGHT0001: Encountered an unexpected error while merging '..\..\..\../installs/x86/Release/Display Controller.msm'. More information about the merge and the failure can be found in the merge log: 'C:\Users\timm\AppData\Local\Temp\qk5zabe1\merge.log' light.exe(0,0): error LGHT0001: Encountered an unexpected error while merging '..\..\..\../installs/x86/Release/SBWDK.msm'.

More information about the merge and the failure can be found in the merge log: 'C:\Users\timm\AppData\Local\Temp\qk5zabe1\merge.log' light.exe(0,0): error LGHT0001: Encountered an unexpected error while merging '..\..\..\../installs/x86/Release\CorePNPx64Drivers.msm'. More information about the merge and the failure can be found in the merge log: 'C:\Users\timm\AppData\Local\Temp\qk5zabe1\merge.log' If I do not add the "=" in the substitution line then the projects all build, but as stated I do not get the property passed to the merge module. So there has to be something else that I have configured incorrectly... Any more help would be appreciated.
