Merge Module Properties Proble

[hess_joel]

I am trying to install the Crystal reports Runtimes with my application. I have used Orca and added the LicenseKey Property to the merge module and then rebuilt my installer. After installation, the runtimes are there, but it doesn't appear to have applied the LicenseKey property. The result: reports don't work. I have tried a few variations on this (starting a new install, building from a different system) and still am not having any success.

Is there any way I can verify that the property is being read out of the MSM correctly by installaware?

Other Suggestions?

I'm under a sizable deadline here so I'll try anything to get this working.

Hi Joel

Did you re-add the MSM to the InstallAware project folder after making the changes? MSMs are locally copied to the InstallAware folder so be sure you have edited the correct MSM file.

Yes, I also verified that the license key property was set after the msm was copied.[/code]

Can you look at the MSI produced by InstallAware to see if your custom data is present there also?

[hess_joel]

I have verified that the LicenseKey Property that is set in the MSM is present in the msi created by InstallAware.

Then it sounds to me something else might be going wrong?

[hess_joel]

Any Ideas where I can look to for that?

I don't really know! If InstallAware is creating an MSI file that has the correct data recorded into the MSM, it would seem to indicate that the configuration initially recorded into the MSM might be erroneous.
