Hi
I am having a serious problem with an Advanced Installer 7.7 Professional project. I need to add a dll to the project, but when I do so the resulting msi fails on install. If I add another type a file, e.g., a .txt file the msi works fine.
There seems to be a problem with the CAB archive. The installer fails when unpacking a totally unrelated file. If I choose to place files unpacked next to the MSI database (option on the Media tab) it also works fine.
Here is a log extract of the failure:
