Chapter 13: Identifying and Resolving Application Conflicts Using ConflictSolver

Application Conflict Evaluators (ACEs)

This conflict requires a manual resolution. Use ONE of the following solutions:

Replace the file in the source package with the same file found in the target package

Retrieve a copy of the file from the operating system in which the target package was taken.

Open a transform file or MSI package in InstallShield Editor.

Once the project is open, navigate to the Files and Folders view, and find the file causing the conflict.

Replace that file with the one retrieved from the operating system.

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 transform file into your Application Catalog, and then

use the Conflict Wizard to check it against ACE23 again.

Change the destination of the component that installs the file in the MSI package

Open a transform file or MSI package in InstallShield Editor.

Once the project is open, navigate to the Components view, and select the component that contains the file

causing the conflict.

In order to quickly find the component name, go to the File Table via the Direct Editor view and search for the

file name. Then, check the component column for the component name.

Select the Destination field of the component from the Property grid and change it to a new destination.

Changing the destination may cause the application to break. Before changing the destination, verify that the

application will still work using the new destination.

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 transform file into your Application Catalog, and then

use the Conflict Wizard to check it against ACE23 again.

ACE 24 checks to see if registry entries with the same registry hive, key, and value name have the same data type

and value. If a registry entry with the same registry hive, key, and value name in a package is found in both the

source and target package, but the registry entry has a different data type or value, ACE24 fails.

The ACE24 Error String is displayed in the following format:

The registry entry [REGISTRY_ENTRY] in [PACKAGE1] conflicts with the same registry entry in the

[COMPONENT] in [PACKAGE2].
