[WiX-users] Handling MSI with size more than 2GB using multiple embedded Media/Cab file

2011-11-02 Thread Reddy, Narasimha
Hi,

I have an MSI Installer which is generated using Wix and the size of MSI
is 2GB so I have written multiple media tags having multiple embedded
cab files, no error are shown during generation of MSI.

 

But when I try to install MSI I am getting an error saying the system
cannot open the device or file specified.

 

Media Id=1 Cabinet=contents.cab EmbedCab=yes
CompressionLevel=none /

Media Id=2 Cabinet=contents2.cab EmbedCab=yes
CompressionLevel=none /

 

Can someone please suggest how to resolve this issue?

 

Thanks  Regards

Narasimha Reddy

I'm not sure you'll be able to get an .msi bigger than 2gb working. Try 
it with the cabinets external.
