Troubleshooting Merge Module Issues

InstallShield 2024

Deleting an Associated Merge Module

If you delete a merge module that is currently associated with your installation, the message [Merge Module Not Found] is displayed, thereby making you aware that the module cannot be included in your installation.

Changing the Language Property of a Merge Module

If you change the language property of a user-defined merge module or another company’s merge module after it has been added to the redistributables gallery, a build error occurs if you try to associate the changed merge module with your project. This error occurs because InstallShield uses the language identifier—along with the module identifier— to identify the module file.

If the language identifier of a merge module file is changed after the file is added to the redistributables gallery, InstallShield cannot find the file.

To locate the correct merge module file, you can browse to it from within the Redistributables view. To learn how, see Browsing for Merge Modules.
