Here is a dropbox link to the same project: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/53351620/InstallShieldTest.zip Your suggestion to turn off Multiprocessor builds has had no effect. I still get Failed to load ISWIBuild: -2147221164 as soon as the second InstallShield project starts building. (I suspect the problem might be that the InstallShield task descends from Microsoft.Build.Utilities.Task instead of AppDomainIsolatedTask. This causes the ISWIBuild assembly to remain locked.

Hi Chiranjeevi, Thanks for your replies. I am aware of MSBuild's capabilities and have tried nesting MSBuild projects without success. I cannot get any command line build to work. I have attached a simplified VS 2012 solution. It contains two console applications and two corresponding setup projects. Could you please provide any method of building the Setup1.msi and Setup2.msi from the command line using ISLE. I have included two batch files: The first one (BuildSolutionDirectly.cmd) runs msbuild.exe against the .sln file and fails with Failed to load ISWIBuild: -2147221164 The second one (BuildWithXml.cmd) uses Build.xml and fails with No outputs for project Thanks for any help, Rob ...

That link doesn't help. Whenever I build a single isproj file I get No outputs for project "MyProject1" were provided but the installation project references "MyProject1.Content Files". It doesn't seem to matter whether I use MSBuild from the command line or the MSBuild task. To summarize: If I build the whole solution with MSBuild, I can only include one isproj project, otherwise I get a Failed to load ISWIBuild: -2147221164 If I build the whole solution with DevEnv, I get -6225 errors If I build a single isproj with MSBuild, I get No outputs for project ... were provided ...

Can you give me an example of how to do this? I am currently using Configuration=$(Configuration) Platform=$(Platform) BuildInParallel="false" StopOnFirstFailure="true" Targets="Build" If I change MySolution.sln to MySetup1.isproj, it fails with No outputs for project "MyProject1" were provided but the installation project references "MyProject1.Content Files". I can't see how to get the outputs without building the whole solution. ... View more
