IS2013SP1 crashes with Error 28 Out of Stack Space

Hi,

I created an Install Shield 2013 SP1 Install Script project which builds fine on my local Windows 7 workstaion. However, when I try and build that same exact project on our Server 2012 Standard "TFS 2012 Update 4" build machine using either the Stand Alone Build (SAB) or IDE version of Install Shield 2013 SP1 I run into a problem where Install Shield crashes with an "Error 28: Out of Stack Space." I checked to make sure all of my Install Shield project files were writable (not read-only) because I've run into problems in the past where TFS made files read-only which caused Install Shield to crash, but that didn't help solve this crashing problem. Our build machine appears to have plenty of memory (4GB) and disk space available (100GB). We don't have any anti-virus software running on our build machine. My Install Shield project is fairly complicated with a lot of custom dialogs and Install Script functions, but I tried creating just a real simple "Hello World" type Install Script project but when I try and build that it also causes Install Shield to crash on our build machine with the same error.

Does anyone have any other ideas or suggestions to try to troubleshoot this problem?

Thanks,
Greg

I discovered Install Shield is crashing when it tries to do .NET dependency scanning and I was able to work around the problem by turning that feature off during build -- set the "Organization -> Components -> .NET Settings -> .NET Scan at Build" option to None.
