Hi,
I tried to extract an MSI file generated by installshield (basic msi
project without any installshield specific extensions).
While extracting, Dark is using short names for the paths in file table of
msi database. This is causing problem as Dark is trying to locate the file
name by the short name in the extracted directory (file is extracted
correcly with its long name).
dark.exe : error DARK0001 : Could not find file
'C:\Software\WiX\test\extract\1\
IPCINS~1.EXE'.
Exception Type: System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Howver, dir listing in the extract/1 directory shows,
06/19/2005 10:33 PM 83,456 IPCINS~2.EXE ipcinstlsp.exe
File entry in the MSI database shows,
IPCINS~1.EXE|ipcinstlsp.exe
Any ideas on how to get Dark ignore short names or any workarounds to
convert project from MSI to WiX?
Regards,
Krisp
