Hi, Think we have it!
I have got a C++ developer here (Paul Simpson) to look at this with me. We've
continued down the path of logging messages to determine where it fails and
what is happening.
Function is StrAllocStringAnsi (in strutil.cpp)
The error occurs in the second call into ::MultiByteWideChar.
cchSource = ::MultiByteToWideChar(uiCodepage, 0, szSource,
(int)(cchSource+1), *ppwz, (int)cch);
Here (int)(cchSource+1) is longer than szSource. The length of szSource is
also manipulated in ScaSqlStrsReadScripts before the call into
StrAllocStringAnsi. Here the length of the string is also maniputlated before
StrAllocStringAnsi is called.
cchScript = (cbScript / sizeof(CHAR))+1;// + 1 so we can ensure a null
at the end
So we are copying up to two bytes more of szSource than there is.
We changed the call to use (cchSource-1) instead, and have tested it four times
successfully. However it still does not really explain the inconsistency of
the problem.
Some pure speculation: The file that was causing this problem is 2207 bytes
long (2208 is divisable by 32 hmmm). We changed the Code to use
(int)(cchSource) and this script stopped being the problem, we then moved to a
script that is 192 bytes long (192 is also a multiple of 32) causing the same
error.
Attached is a copy of the SQL Scripts in question. Although be aware we are
still not getting a 100% failure rate (I had the install work twice today for
instance).

Michael Osmond is still doing analysis. I added some information in the
attached thread. If you wanted to try those debugging instructions as well,
maybe someone will eventually get a callstack pointing to the problem.

I am having this problem consitantly now. We have been building and Installing
our MSI for about a year now and have not had a problem.
Did anyone find out why this was happening?
