An error occurred merging module [MODULENAME] for featur Hello all So this is my first time working with InstallShield, I was playing around with it but I still haven´t manage to create my first installer... I´m using the VB6 Wizard but I´m getting two errors when I try to build the installation... ISDEV : error -4075: File not found. An error occurred merging Module 'DAO360.5B60FF9E_851D_11D4_A752_00B0D0428C0C:0' for Feature 'ScannedProject1'. ISDEV : error -4075: File not found. An error occurred merging Module 'MDAC27ENU.C9C35FC7_5AEE_4C1E_8BD2_80ED9FA87FFF:1033' for Feature 'ScannedProject1'. I read that IS can´t find these two files, so i´m pretty clueless on what to do next. What can I do to solve this problem Reply With Quote 10-27-2008,04:04 PM #2 SherylSikora View Profile View Forum Posts InstallShield Software Engineer Join Date Oct 2001 Location Schaumburg, IL. Posts 438 You will need to download these redistributables onto your machine. You can do this by going to the Redistributables view in the InstallShield IDE. You will see an entry for DAO 3.60 that probably shows its location as "Needs to be downloaded". You can select it and then right-click on this entry and choose the "Download Selected Item..." menu item. This will place the file on your system for your build to pick up. Then you can do the same for the MDAC 2.7 redistributable. It is named "Microsoft Data Access Components 2.7 (English)". Sheryl Sikora - Staff So

An error occurred merging Module 'Microsoft_VC100_CRT_x86.F1DD796A_B984_3DCA_A68D_6B352BDC86F3:0' for Feature 'xxx'. I know I am missing a merge module Microsoft_VC100_CRT_x86.msm. I have found different versions of Microsoft_VC100_CRT_x86.msm from somewhere else but I cannot identify which module is the missing one. According to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370051(v=vs.85).aspx, ModuleID is an identifier that uniquely identifies the merge module. For example, if the readable name of the merge module is MyLibrary and the http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31716269/how-to-get-the-moduleid-from-merge-module GUID is {880DE2F0-CDD8-11D1-A849-006097ABDE17}, the entry in the ModuleID column becomes MyLibrary.880DE2F0_CDD8_11D1_A849_006097ABDE17. My question is by what tools/methods, I can read the ModuleID from a merge module so that I can identity these merge modules? P.S. I am using Installshield 2009 for building installer. There is no information shown to identify the merge modules I have. windows-installer installshield merge-module installshield-2009 share|improve this question asked Jul 30 '15 at 6:09 David Chik 384 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote accepted Edit the module using ORCA and look at the Module Signature table. share|improve this answer answered Jul 30 '15 at 21:59 Christopher Painter 42.1k63163 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

I have a case where I need to install one version of a DLL when the client machine has version X installed and a different verion of the DLL when they have version Y installed. I was hoping there was a setting (Condition) that could be used like there is is with SQL scripts. Can this be done or do I need to do something like have one feature for version X and another feature for version an error occurred Y where the user can only choose 1? installshield share|improve this question asked Apr 2 '12 at 15:40 Michael Hayes 45312 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 0 down vote accepted No, it's simply not possible for InstallShield to have this level of understanding of what your installer needs to do when "dynamically" picking up files. I don't suggest using dynamic at all but if you must, you need to list your file name to "exclude" from the "dynamic" and then author those files as components directly in your installer. Once you do that, you can take advantage of the condition property on the component. The only other alternative would be to create additional dynamic components and associate them to features that have conditions to manipulate the Install Level of the feature and it's components. share|improve this answer answered Apr 2 '12 at 17:06 Christopher Painter 42.1k63163 1 I removed the dynamic link and used the component wizard to add all of the folders and files from my web app. Upon attempt to build I now get "File not found. An error occurred merging Module 'MDAC27ENU.C9C35FC7_5AEE_4C1E_8BD2_80ED9FA87FFF:1033' for Feature" I saw a post you did on the Flexera Software Forum from 2008 saying one should be careful about adding that module. I checked the Redistributable Downloader and MDAC27 does not show up in the list. Why the change in build behavior from dynamic link
of project. This project type is no longer available in InstallShield. Upgrading InstallScript MSI Object Projects If you open an InstallScript MSI Object project in InstallShield 2015, InstallShield will convert it to a merge module project. Predefined InstallScript event handlers are not available in merge module projects that have InstallScript custom actions. Therefore, if you have an InstallShield 11.5 or earlier InstallScript MSI object project that uses InstallScript event handler functions, you must manually schedule custom actions that call these functions when the project is converted to a merge module project in InstallShield 2015. To learn how, see Creating and Scheduling InstallScript Custom Actions that Call InstallScript Event Handlers for Basic MSI Projects. Note that InstallShield 2015, as well as earlier and later versions of InstallShield, can consume InstallShield 2015 merge modules that have InstallScript custom actions. Upgrading Projects that Contain InstallScript MSI Objects Building upgraded projects that contain already-built InstallScript MSI objects (.imm files) will fail; these objects cannot be consumed in InstallShield 2015. If you try to do so, a build error such as the following one occurs: ISDEV : error -4075: File not found. An error occurred merging Module 'InstallShieldMSIObjectName.4F635B62_07BF_4779_B74E_D80C29D508E3:0' for Feature 'NewFeature1'. where “InstallShieldMSIObjectName.4F635B62_07BF_4779_B74E_D80C29D508E3:0” is information that is specific to the missing InstallScript MSI object. To resolve this build error, remove this InstallScript MSI object from your project; you can do so by clearing its check box in the Redistributables view.
