We really need the AIP file, without it there is nothing we can do. The 1627 is a generic error.

Hi,

I get the same error while building the msi.
Its a 2 cd installer.
My Installer content size is around 1.2 GB.
The total space left in the first cd is around 330 Mb and second CD I have around 645 MB.

I have given volume information in Media as 330 and 645 MB.
and also opted for compressed cab files.

Is there any reason for this particular error.
which came up while building it.

Hi,

even if I only try to do the simple tutorial (copy one file) I get the error

Building package (en): D:\Ms\AdvancedInstaller\Test1\t2.msi
Creating CAB file(s)... done.
Creating MSI database... error.
Exception - Reason: Error calling Msi API: 1627 Method: MsiViewExecute Table: Property.

Build finished because an error was encountered.


I am using version 3.9


What's going wrong ?
Do I have to have administrative privileges on the machine ?

Regards,

Carli

Hi,

The problem you are encountering might be related to a bug that is present in version 3.9 of Advanced Installer (which has already been fixed). In some situations, the language for a Simple project is not set to "English" (the only language supported by this type of project).

There is a simple workaround for this bug, though: in the "New Project" dialog, if the "Language" combobox shows a language other than English when "Simple" is selected above, then first click on "Professional", then click again on "Simple" (if you wish to create a Simple project). Now, the "Language" combobox should contain English.

Another workaround would be to delete the following registry key:

Code: Select all

HKCU\Software\Caphyon\Advanced Installer\New Project\Last New Project Language
If this is not the case please send the AIP file to support at advancedinstaller dot com and then I shall investigate.

Ionut

version 4.9

Building package (en): C:\shapes13.msi
Applying file transforms... done.
Creating CAB file(s)... done.
Creating MSI database... error.
Exception - Reason: Error calling Msi API: 1627 Method: MsiViewExecute Table: Registry Extended Error:
1: 2210 2: C:\shapes13.msi 3: 5 .

Build finished because an error was encountered.

All I am doing is importing a regfile in that looks like this into a simple project. Pretty simple stuff the rest of the MSI Package is copying files.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls]
"C:\WINDOWS\unvise32.exe"=dword:00000002

If I remove the above reg file the MSI is created without any errors..

I tried the above deleteing of that reg key same issue occurs.
