Re: [WiX-users] Error 1723
Yea, and the million dollar question is, which dll is missing? The exact error message I get is: MSI (c) (C0:1C) [10:18:19:335]: Note: 1: 1723 2: caStripCharsFromNetworkPort 3: StripExtraCharsFromRegSearchValue 4: C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.LAB\LOCALS~1\Temp\MSI151.tmp Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action caStripCharsFromNetworkPort, entry: StripExtraCharsFromRegSearchValue, library: C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.LAB\LOCALS~1\Temp\MSI151.tmp MSI (c) (C0:1C) [10:18:20:664]: Product: Email Management Services -- Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action caStripCharsFromNetworkPort, entry: StripExtraCharsFromRegSearchValue, library: C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.LAB\LOCALS~1\Temp\MSI151.tmp This custom action is a managed assembly. I unpacked the MSI and CAB and pointed .NET reflector at the assembly and all its references were found. I set the fusion log to log while running the MSI and it doesn't report any errors. I ran msiexec within a WinDBG session and didn't get any module load failures. Does anyone have tips on how do debug this type or issue? Or basically any debugging related to WiX/MSI? How can the wixpdb files be used? Thanks for the reply, I know you didn't write WiX though I've had an easier time debugging hex machine code than the WiX/MSI process. > Message: 6 > Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2011 11:05:01 +0200 > From: "Dan Vasilov" > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Error 1723 > To: "'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.'" > > Message-ID: <02fc01cbd401$eb598740$c20c95c0$@ro> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > It is very likely the .dll is not included in the MSI package at > build. > Another possibility is the .dll is missing some dependent .dll files. > > -Original Message- > From: Colin LeMahieu [mailto:clemah...@gmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2011 7:26 PM > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [WiX-users] Error 1723 > > I'm getting this error on startup for an MSI that previously worked. > Are there any tips for debugging this error?

[WiX-users] Error 1723
I'm getting this error on startup for an MSI that previously worked. Are there any tips for debugging this error? Is it unreasonable to expect the name of the offending DLL or some way to attach a debugger to an MSI while installing? -- Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk.

This was the solution to the problem. I agree, this was very hard to find an the error message gave no indication as to the solution and pointed to the incorrect location. -- The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.

[WiX-users] LGHT0170
I've been working on a WiX project for the past few days, which has been nothing short of a nightmare of caveats and unclear error messages, I've run in to an issue I can't seem to fix: 18>C:\delivery\Dev\wix35_public\src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib\WixUI_Advanced.wxs(125,0): error LGHT0170: The InstallUISequence table contains an action 'WelcomeDlg' that is declared in two different locations. Please remove one of the actions or set the Overridable='yes' attribute on one of their elements. 18>C:\delivery\Dev\wix35_public\src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib\WixUI_Minimal.wxs(63,0): error LGHT0171: The location of the action related to previous error. I filed bug report https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3170990&group_id=105970&atid=642714 which was quickly dismissed as "not a bug" Another person had a similar issue http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Custom-UI-sequence-td5894155.html which he gave up on trying to fix thoug I'm not attempting to replace the WelcomeDlg. It seems like both WixUI_Minimal and WixUI_Advances are both references though *neither* is references. In fact I've commented out every UIRef element in the entire solution and this is still the error I get. Perhaps looking at the InstallUISequence table would help but no files are generated because of the errors. The error message gives no indication as to where the references are. Does anyone know of a solution to this issue or could give some pointers on what steps I can take to get a more exact error message? -- The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.
