Build error when using 64bit Merge Module

[PBach]

Hello,

if we are adding the 64 bit version of the attached merge module to our project then the build fails with error "Exception-Reason: Merge operation failed for module ShellExtMerger64.msm". When adding merge module with InstallShield everthing works fine.

Using 32 bit version of merge module works fine too.

Kind regards,
Paul

Hi Paul,

Please make sure the merge module's architecture matches the installer's architecture. Ex. if you're adding a 64bit merge module, then your package also needs to be a 64bit package. Make sure this is so by going to "Install Parameters" page and setting the "Package Type" field.

Best regards,
Gabriel

Hi Gabriel,

my project is mixed 32/64 bit (build with the project wizard for mixed bit packages).
Should'nt projects of this type support both 32 and 64 bit merge modules?

Thanks,
Paul

I've rebuild the project from scratch and now everything works fine.
Don't know what causes the problem but now it works.

Thanks,
Paul
