Hi,

When Building one MSI project i am getting the build Error 6552

Error -6552
The file key %1 of component %2 could not be synchronized with the previous package because that file key is already in use.

I got this link but its also not giving any information about why this is happening

was this project upgraded from previous version? do you have the build log ?

[manomatt]

no the project was not upgraded the error comes when i was trying to create a patch from it. So in the release setting i pointed to my old msi and when i tried to take the build this error pops up.

Build log says just this one liner ..only

[Shekar]

can you attach the build log

[manomatt]

Have you added removed any files in component BatchFiles from the project and re-added them? Have you changed any files in present and previous packages?

Nice observation...
That component had some 5 files and i wanted the patch to remove some files so i removed those files from the component and added those entries into RemoveFile Table. so only one file was left in that component.
