The documentation for ImsmMerge2::Merge wasn't exactly helpful (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa369275.aspx):
Return Value The Merge function returns the following values. E_FAIL The merge failed catastrophically. This indicates an operational error, and is not the normal error return for a failed merge. Check that the path to the MSI and the path to the MSM are fairly short? What does smoke say about the MSM? Can you open it with Orca? If you have an on-access virus scanner, try disabling it temporarily or asking it not to scan on writing the file? -- Mike Dimmick -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DexterSinister Sent: 31 May 2007 21:59 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Error while trying to build with Crystal Reports XIr2 -Any ideas ?
