Chapter 13: Identifying and Resolving Application Conflicts Using ConflictSolver

Application Conflict Evaluators (ACEs)

To resolve this conflict:

Open the transform file or MSI package in InstallShield Editor.

Once the project is open, navigate to the Components View, and find the component that needs to be

modified by referring to the component name displayed in the error message.

In the Component's Property grid, change the value in the Component Code field to match the Component

Code (ComponentId) of the component in the other project.

If it is unclear what the Component Code should be changed to, follow these steps:

Open up the package that will not be modified in Direct Edit mode by selecting Open on the File menu,

and then selecting Direct Editor under Additional Tools. A list of the package tables is displayed.

Select the Component table and search for the Component Name displayed in the conflict.

Once the entry is found, take note of the value displayed in the ComponentId column. This is the

Component Code that should be used for the component in the other package.

Select Save As from the File menu and save the changes as a Windows Installer Transform (.mst) file.

Open ConflictSolver and reimport this package with its newly created transform file into your Application

Catalog, and then use the Conflict Wizard to check it against ACE17 again.

ACE18 checks the Package Code to see if it is unique. The ACE18 Error String is displayed in the following format:

The package code [PACKAGE_CODE] in the package [PACKAGE1] is the same as the package code in the

package [PACKAGE2].
