Help! Build Error 6118 issues with DetectIIS6Compat.dll in 2019 project
Hi,
We are currently attempting to update our installshield projects to Installshield 2019. We have one which installs our software's webservices which is working fine in 2016. However when we try to build it in 2019 we are getting the following errors
Error RC2170 : bitmap file <Path>\DetectIIS6Compat.dll is not in 3.00 format
Error -6118: The Resource compiler failed to build the RES file "<Path>\ProteanWebServices74\_ISUser_0x0409.res" required to link the DLL.
I have tracked it down to a custom action for detecting IIS6 compatibility using DetectIIS6Compat.dll as described in this article
https://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/installshield22helplib/helplibrary/IISMetabaseCompat.htm
As far as I am aware this is a dll that is included within Installshield. Anyone have ideas on how to solve this?
Any help would be gratefully received
Thanks
Simon
