"Could Not Register Type Library" Error with WinINSTALL MSI Package
Hi folks!
I'm trying to use WinINSTALL LE to create an MSI package for WordPerfect Office 12 to use in deploying that application to our Windows XP workstations via group policy in Active Directory.
I successfully installed WinINSTALL on a clean machine, ran a discovery, installed WP Office, and ran a new discovery. It said it successfully created the package. However, when I go to another machine and attempt to use the resultant package to install, I receive several errors that say "Could not register type library for file" and then list a file name. The files it references are:
C:\Program Files\WordPerfect Office 12\Programs\CdrPDFUI112.dl
C:\Program Files\WordPerfect Office 12\Programs\CRLFRMWK112.dl
C:\Program Files\WordPerfect Office 12\Programs\cdrpdf112.dll
The only way I can proceed is to tell the installer to ignore the error, but if I do so, when it completes, the Start Menu shortcuts to the programs are not valid. I could create a shortcut directly to the executable file for WordPerfect, which seems to have been properly created, but I'm afriad that with those errors there will be problems.
Any suggestions on what is causing this problem would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Ithizar

Thanks. How do I get rid of the errors during the install, though? When I build the MSI package, it is supposed to be completely unattended, which is what I need since I intend to deploy via group policy, but when it hits those errors, it's stopping and asking for a user response.

This is not a program I am writing. This is a commercial piece of software that I am trying to wrap up in an MSI package for easy deployment through Active Directory.
