Hi there,

We've created a Wix based installer that has a few COM dlls that use VC 9.0 
runtime dlls. We've included the VC9 runtime merge modules in our product.wxs 
file & it even installs the merge modules.
But it fails to self register the COM dlls. Surprisingly if we ignore the 
failure & complete the installation we are able to register the dll manually 
(using regsvr32). I've seen some posts where self registration is
discouraged but I haven't been able to find a fix.

Already spent a few days to figure out a fix so any help would be appreciated.
