Yes, I really hate merge modules. Wixlibs are much better. Always have issues with merge modules I haven't authored.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Resolve Light 1056 Warning FYI It turns out that, although John's suggestion did work, different Microsoft merge modules have different values for some of the standard folders, and so I will be following Rob's suggestion and just ignoring those warnings. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Morey Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2013 5:08 PM To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.'

Subject: [WiX-users] Resolve Light 1056 Warning I am creating a WiX installer for an application that requires some Microsoft merge modules. I'm getting several warnings like: warning LGHT1056: The Directory table contains a row with primary key(s) 'SystemFolder' which cannot be merged from the merge module 'C:\_blah\blah\COMCAT.MSM'. This is likely due to collision of rows with the same primary key(s) (but other different values in other columns) between the database and the merge module. I looked at the merge module and my MSI with Orca and found this difference in the DefaultDir column of the Directory table: MM DefaultDir - .:System32 My DefaultDir - System32 How do I author my project so that I get the ".:" designation in the DefaultDir column?
