Crystal Reports 13.0.5 Merge Module Crashing InstallAware

[FrancescoT]

Dear Fabricio,

honestly, currently I'm not informed about a possible new runtime version available with the next IA releases.
I'll drop a note to our dev team ... but I can't promise if it will be available.

Anyway, InstallAware is not a closed package and you can extend your IA runtime list with creating custom runtime packages ( ... as many many other IA users do).

All the required steps are described with the document; "Extending the Application Runtimes View " available at;
http://www.installaware.com/publications-whitepapers.htm

Thanks Francesco!

I am having a similar problem adding the Crystal Report 13.0.10 merge module to my project. It appears that the path for the output of the Single Compressed EXE File is too long. My project is in a folder called C:\Development\My Installations\TravCom Connect Setup, so the default output folder would be C:\Development\My Installations\TravCom Connect Setup\Release\Single\MySetup.exe. However, when I try to build the setup it gets to the point of adding the merge module and then InstallAware just closes down. No error message. If I remove the merge module it builds just fine. Or if I change the output folder to simply C:\My Setup\Release\Single\MySetup.exe then it builds just fine. So apparently there is still something wrong with having such a long path for the output folder when the merge module is involved.

I am evaluating InstallAware 18 (build 7.1.14)

Dear User,

it seems strange ... but let me see if I am able to replicate what you are reporting.
