MSI package can't pass the MPR Test Tool: MsiDriverPackages

Hello,

I've a problem with the Advanced Installer, building a project which pass the Microsoft Platform Ready Test for type "Windows Server 2012".

Problem description:
The test failed, because the MPR Test Tool reported in a test case named "MSI package validation" follows "Custom table starting with msi : MsiDriverPackages"
The MPR Test Tool does not allow "Custom table starting with msi"

Why the generated MSI package includes this custom table? How can I cut out this custom table from MSI package?

How to reproduce:
Install on a Windows Server 2012 the MPR Test Tool at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... x?id=37143 and test the attached Installer Project, which based on the AI-Template "Simple Project".

Environment:
Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Standard, Version 6.2.9200, 64-bit
- Virtual Machine on Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V
- 4 Processores/Cores

Enabled on Server should be:
- Debugging Setting: Kernel Memory dump
- Firewall
- IPv6
- User Account Control
- Windows Error Reporting (WER)

Advanced Installer Version 9.0.1
Visual Studio 2010

Thanks in advance for your support.

Razvan

Re: MSI package can't pass the MPR Test Tool: MsiDriverPacka

Hello Razvan,

I'm afraid this was an Advanced Installer limitation which was fixed starting with version 10.1 of Advanced Installer. Can you please build your installation project using our latest version (10.3) of Advanced Installer and see if the behavior still persist?

All the best,
Daniel
