I am trying to use AdminStudio 5.5 to package simple legacy applications, but have a major problem with getting it to recognise merge modules correctly, so the resulting MSIs break my target workstations.
In the specific example I am supplying here, it has failed to include the three merge modules for MS Common Dialog Control 6.0, MS Flexgrid Control and MS Windows Common Controls (6.0). They have been included by Repackager, as can be seen in the captured data, but when imported to DevStudio it includes them as files in SYSTEM32, rather than redistributables.
If I perform the exact same installation using AdminStudio 3.5 then the correct merge modules are detected and included, so this is clearly an AdminStudio 5.5 problem.
I have re-downloaded all merge modules from the InstallShield site. Under Tools, Options, Merge Modules the search behaviour settings for 'same version' and 'same location' are both UNCHECKED.
The attached zip file is a copy of the captured install and the resulting .ism file. All I have removed is the .msi output file as that made the zip too big to upload.
Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong here? I desperately need to migrate to AdminStudio 5.5, but until I can get it to reliably detect merge modules I cannot use it.
TIA,
Graham
