I have had the situation where I am using a Dynamic Link in a Component, and due to network issues external to InstallShield the Dynamic Link does not detect any files or subfolders. So they are 'missing' from the resulting package. There is no error reported because Dynamic Link included everything it found for the Component, which was nothing. This is a risk that you take when you use Dynamic Linking rather than Static Linking. But without reviewing your build report, one can only guess that the issue might be related to a Dynamic Link. After this Dynamic Link issue bit us a few times we scripted into our build process a procedure that compares the new build report to the last build report and produces a 'difference' report. Using this I can detect when this problem happens, fix the network problem, and rebuild the package prior to ever passing the defective package to QA. Yes.I looked the report too. There I am able to see like File is "". Size is some KB. Identifier is something and the Source is "I\Media\...". So the source is correct. But the file name is simply with "". And some of the files are missing here. But I am sure every file copied into the source folder of the installation.

I have installed the Installshield 2011 in my machine. I have copied the existing project from my old machine to this one. But the old machine also have the IS 2011. But I am not able to build my project in the new machine. Though the build successful, when I launch the setup, it throws an error (-5006 0x8007007b) and says something like "kernel\serviceprovider.cpp". I tried so many things and suspect the data1.cab and data1.hdr files. If I replace them with the old set of files, the installation succeeds. So I believe the data1.cab and data1.hdr creates the issue. In cab file viewer, I opened the data1.cab. I expand the components, and expand the folder and "File" is there. If I click the "File" nothing is listed in the rightside pane. But in my explorer files are present actually. Is there any configuration missing? Have I missed any thing in the new machine IS Installation?

Hi, When I extract my data1.hdr I found that most of the files are missing under components. Mostly, the data1.hdr didn't include the files but include the folders only. (For example, Parent is a folder under child1 and child2 are files. In data1.hdr,only parent\ has been included but it should be like parent\child1,parent\child2.) I believe some configuration is missing.Please suggest...
