Hi All, I have an interest problem that I have not really found the answer to elsewhere.
I have a Wix project that is installing five different satellite assemblies to the GAC. The main assembly is also GAC'ed. All the assemblies (including the satellite assemblies) are strong-named. I asked around on the .NET groups and they indicated that multiple satellite assemblies can be installed to the GAC even if the same name because the actual name includes the culture. So therefore, strong named satellite assemblies would not conflict. So, why then would WiX raise the following error:- error LGHT0204: ICE30: The target file 'Res_0.dll|Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' is installed in '[TARGETDIR]\GlobalAssemblyCache\' by two different components on an LFN system: 'SkyTriggerServer.0.Resources' and 'SkyTriggerServer.1.Resources'. This breaks component reference counting. I initially tried a solution that involved installing each resource assembly to a sub-directory named after the target locale. But that doesn't work for the GAC; only for application installation directory. Here is how the WiX fragment looks like:- <DirectoryRef Id='GlobalAssemblyCache'> <Component Id='SkyTriggerServer.0.Resources' Guid='e0d9f93c-7e92-4f4e-b216-57ca9a6e2200' Win64='$(var.is64bit)'> <File Id='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.0.dll' DiskId='1' ShortName='Res_0.dll' Name='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' Source='c:\source\wpsazure\Release\debug\amd64\MyPhone\Locales\lba\de\Skybox\locstudio.target\Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' KeyPath='yes' Assembly='.net' Vital="yes" /> </Component> <Component Id='SkyTriggerServer.1.Resources' Guid='e0d9f93c-7e92-4f4e-b216-57ca9a6e2201' Win64='$(var.is64bit)'> <File Id='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.1.dll' DiskId='1' ShortName='Res_1.dll' Name='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' Source='c:\source\wpsazure\Release\debug\amd64\MyPhone\Locales\lba\en\Skybox\locstudio.target\Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' KeyPath='yes' Assembly='.net' Vital="yes" /> </Component> <Component Id='SkyTriggerServer.2.Resources' Guid='e0d9f93c-7e92-4f4e-b216-57ca9a6e2202' Win64='$(var.is64bit)'> <File Id='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.2.dll' DiskId='1' ShortName='Res_2.dll' Name='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' Source='c:\source\wpsazure\Release\debug\amd64\MyPhone\Locales\lba\es\Skybox\locstudio.target\Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' KeyPath='yes' Assembly='.net' Vital="yes" /> </Component> <Component Id='SkyTriggerServer.3.Resources' Guid='e0d9f93c-7e92-4f4e-b216-57ca9a6e2203' Win64='$(var.is64bit)'> <File Id='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.3.dll' DiskId='1' ShortName='Res_3.dll' Name='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' Source='c:\source\wpsazure\Release\debug\amd64\MyPhone\Locales\lba\fr\Skybox\locstudio.target\Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' KeyPath='yes' Assembly='.net' Vital="yes" /> </Component> <Component Id='SkyTriggerServer.4.Resources' Guid='e0d9f93c-7e92-4f4e-b216-57ca9a6e2204' Win64='$(var.is64bit)'> <File Id='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.4.dll' DiskId='1' ShortName='Res_4.dll' Name='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' Source='c:\source\wpsazure\Release\debug\amd64\MyPhone\Locales\lba\it\Skybox\locstudio.target\Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' KeyPath='yes' Assembly='.net' Vital="yes" /> </Component> <Component Id='SkyTriggerServer.5.Resources' Guid='e0d9f93c-7e92-4f4e-b216-57ca9a6e2205' Win64='$(var.is64bit)'> <File Id='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.5.dll' DiskId='1' ShortName='Res_5.dll' Name='Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' Source='c:\source\wpsazure\Release\debug\amd64\MyPhone\Locales\lba\ja-ploc-jp\Skybox\locstudio.target\Microsoft.MyPhone.Server.SkyTrigger.Resources.dll' KeyPath='yes' Assembly='.net' Vital="yes" /> </Component> </DirectoryRef> Any guidance is appreciated.
