Unknown error occured in Repackager

[jodie_phipps]

I created a couple of different installations from exe's (adobe reader 8.1, google earth, some Dell apps etc..) useing the Installation monitoring method. When I go into the repackager to "build" the MSI I get(my Build log):

Well this seems to be a problem with corrupt legacy setups or failings while the Install Monitoring Process..

You shoud check the "Files and Folders" Entrys within the Repackager on the actual project file and shoud then exclude all files and folders which aren't necessary for the project..

I occured the same problem with the new Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 after
sucessful "Install Monitoring" the build failed with the same error

and if i exclude the "corrupt" folder with no content the build of the MSI works then fine...
