I've ported a project from IS2010 to IS2014 where code was developed using VS2008. I had the port working, but then installed VS2010 SP1. Now, I get error -7184 when merging modules:
Merging modules... Merging Microsoft Component Category Manager Library: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\COMCAT.MSM Merging MFCDLL Shared Library - Retail Version: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\MFC42.MSM Merging MFCDLL Shared Library - Retail Version: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\MFC42U.MSM Merging Microsoft (R) C++ Runtime Library: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\MSVCP60.MSM Merging Microsoft (R) C Runtime Library: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\MSVCRT.MSM Merging Microsoft OLE 2.40 for Windows NT(TM) and Windows 95(TM) Operating Systems: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\OLEAUT32.MSM ISDEV : error -7184: The FileName column of the File table includes characters that are not available on code page 1252: "?" ISDEV : error -7184: The FileName column of the File table includes characters that are not available on code page 1252: "21BA~1|?" (about 12 lines of this)
I tried changing the redistributables to eliminate some older modules that will not be needed, but I still get the error, but with a different merge module, for example: Merging modules... Merging Microsoft Component Category Manager Library: D:\InstallShield\IS2014\Modules\i386\COMCAT.MSM ISDEV : error -7184: The FileName column of the File table includes characters that are not available on code page 1252: "?" ISDEV : error -7184: The FileName column of the File table includes characters that are not available on code page 1252: "21BA~1|?"
The various msm files in my local IS2014 modules folder are the same as in the Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Modules folder. It seems that perhaps something in VS2010 SP1 has incompatible msm files?
