My first install with InstallAware 9 Developer using 1 notch under max compression fails with an error 2329 (see screen in attached file).
Same install works perfectly on XP, Vista 32, Vista 64.

As a separate issue, build for this install always hangs during compression using max compression. This worked perfectly with InstallAware 8 Developer. :(

Add a small file to your setup, this generally works around compression problems.

Understanding Error Messages

InstallAware is based on Windows Installer technology. If you receive a numeric setup error code, such as 2343, please consult Microsoft's MSDN Library for a description of the error message. For instance, the description of error code 2343 is "Specified path is empty." This information will help you determine the location of the error in your installation project and fix it - all in a fraction of the time it would take for InstallAware support resources to identify the issue on your behalf.
