[WiX-users] Wix-3.0 and MDAC27ENU merge module

[David H. <da...@dy...>]

Hi Again,

I am now trying to using the MDAC27ENU.MSM in my wix-3.0 project.

Again, this msm was obtained from the InstallShield (or MS) website.

When I run light, I receive the following warnings and errors:

Microsoft (R) Windows Installer Xml Linker version 3.0.2015.0

.wxs(28) : warning LGHT1056 : The Directory table contains a row with 
primary key(s) 'DesktopFolder' which cannot be merged from the merge 
module 'C:\Merge Modules\mdac27enu.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.

light.exe : error LGHT0204 : ICE99: The directory name: 
PrimaryVolumePath is the same as one of the MSI Public Properties and 
can cause unforeseen side effects.

light.exe : error LGHT0204 : ICE99: The directory name: WindowsVolume is 
the same as one of the MSI Public Properties and can cause unforeseen 
side effects.

If I don't include this particular merge module, I don't receive any 
warnings or errors.

I understand I can ignore the warnings, however how do I overcome the 
errors?

Cheers,

David.
