I get ISEXP : error : -6109: Internal build error when building an ASP.NET installer. What are the likely causes? Or what can I tinker with to resolve this?
InstallShield 2013 SP1 Express Edition
Here is the output window: ------ Rebuild All started: Project: Install, Configuration: CD_ROM ------ Created release folders AdminExecuteSequence table successfully built AdminUISequence table successfully built AdvtExecuteSequence table successfully built AdvtUISequence table successfully built InstallExecuteSequence table successfully built InstallUISequence table successfully built Directory table successfully built Feature table successfully built FeatureComponents table successfully built Component table successfully built Loading File table Building File table ISEXP : error : -6109: Internal build error
In my case, I had changed the contents of a folder in the ASP.NET project. Some files in that folder were new, some deleted, and some modified. That folder was included in the 'Content Files' in the installer. Evidently, the installer did not like the deleted files. The 'fix' was to delete that entire folder from the asp.net project, and then add it again. After that, the -6109 installer build error disappeared.
This seems like an installer bug. Has it been fixed in 2014?
