Unable to compile msi action set ini entry

Post by hankypanky99 »

Hello everyone!

I am facing this problem when I am building my installer.

Error during build: Unable to compile msi action set ini entry

I have 4 different edit ini statements after each other.
If i "comment out" the first one, I can build it. But if all four are active, it doesn't work.
In other script, it could be another statement that "commented out" for it to work. There is no logic at all.

Has anyone faced this problem before, or have an idea why this is happening?

I have attached an ready to build project, if someone want's to give it a try...

Thanks everyone!

/Henrik

Dear Henrik,

The problem you have is caused by an optimization issue.
If you set LONGCOMPONENTS to TRUE on the Windows Installer Power Tweaks page, it fixes the MSI generation problems.
