I create MSIs through the use of merge modules. I have been using Wix
version 2.0.3309 for a while now and have not had any problems generating
the MSIs, I have tried a few times to upgrade to later versions of Wix. I
have tried 3719 and now 4820. With both the latter versions, The MSM
generation looks fine, but I get the following error during the final light
phase when it attempts to create the MSI from the MSM.
light.exe : error LGHT0001 : Retrieving the COM class factory for component
with
CLSID {F94985D5-29F9-4743-9805-99BC3F35B678} failed due to the following
error:
8007007e.
Exception Type: System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Stack Trace:
at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Binder.MergeModules(String
databasePat
h, Output output)
at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Binder.Bind(Output output)
at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Tools.Light.Run(String[] args)
I think I have seen some prior posts about installing Orca and registering
mergemod.dll to fix this problem. I have done both and I can find the CLSID
above in the registry as a registered COM object. Still get this failure.
What else is needed to get this to work ?
Thanks for your responses,
