Hmm, there is nothing below that looks wrong. Can you provide more details
about the exact command lines and exact .wxs file that is causing the problem?
If you can't send the whole thing, can you send an example .wxs file that
demonstrates the same problem? I just can't repro the problem your hitting.
PS: Have you tried using Reflector or ildasm to verify that the assemblies
have valid strong names?

Hi Rob
I have two assemblies that I am trying to install into the GAC. Both are
signed, both are generated using .NET 1.1 compiler.
One is a wrapper around a COM type library, generated by tlbimp, and the other
is a DLL which is dependent on the wrapper.
They are in separate components in the wix file.
Neither Candle nor Light gave any warnings or errors. I have tried the
following switches on candle to get more information out, but it doesn't report
anything on stdout:
light -v <assemblyname>
light -trace <assemblyname>
light -v -trace <assemblyname>
light -pedantic <assemblyname>
Dave

Yes, WiX should have generated that table for you. Is your Assembly strong
signed? Were there any warnings/errors from light during the build process?

Subject: [WiX-users] Installing to the GAC
Hi
I'm trying to install an assembly into the GAC using wix. I thought that all I
needed to do was add the Assembly=".net" attribute as shown below.
<Component Id="EmailSrv.dll"
Guid="{13D474A4-5710-473D-82B5-8BCCC90932B3}">
<File Id="EmailSrv.dll" Name="EmailSrv.dll" KeyPath="yes"
Source="EmailSrv\EmailSrv.dll" Assembly=".net" />
</Component>
Candle and Light both run without errors, but when I try to install the msi, it
fails with the following error:
DEBUG: Error 2228: Database: . Unknown table 'MsiAssemblyName' in SQL query:
SELECT `Value` FROM `MsiAssemblyName` WHERE `Component_` = ? AND (`Name` =
'Name' OR `Name` = 'NAME' OR `Name` = 'name')
The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This
may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2228. The arguments
are: , MsiAssemblyName, SELECT `Value` FROM `MsiAssemblyName` WHERE
`Component_` = ? AND (`Name` = 'Name' OR `Name` = 'NAME' OR `Name` = 'name')
When I look at the msi using orca, it is missing the MsiAssemblyName table.
Should wix not generate these entries for me when I add the Assembly attribute?
I am using candle/light version 3.0.2128.0
Any help would be most appreciated.
Dave
