Is your code .NET 4.0? If so I was able to reproduce the problem, it appears that the COM+ CA doesn't work with .NET 4.0 assemblies. Can you use .NET 3.5? Have you tried manually installing a .NET 4.0 assembly into COM+?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Register a .NET DLL in a COM+ Application - Could not install type library... Hi Neil, thanks for your reply. All in all my code is from your tutorial and it works fine for native assemblys... but not for COM+ assemblys. Any ideas why? Something wrong in my code? Does anyone have a working example?
