I'm trying to install a .NET 3.5 web application I on a Win 2003 server with IIS6. The application installed fine a few versions ago and the old msi still works. As far as I know nothing has changed with the installer apart from a version number, one more dll in the application and the ProductCode of the setup project. However, the latest msi stops with the message:
The installer was interrupted before <ApplicationName> could be
installed. You need to restart the installer to try again.
The log contains this error:

This page says error 1615 is an SQL syntax error but the action is a standard MS action so I can't do much about. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks.
UPDATE: I've tried creating a new web app in Visual Studio 2008 and a setup project for it and that installer does not work either so I suspect it's something with my Visual Studio. I can't think of what though so I still need help...
UPDATE 2: Curiouser and curiouser... a colleague compiled the code without making any changes and the installer works. Now the question becomes what has happened to my VS2008 and how can I fix it?
could be a change in the projects database structure.
Possibly you have a database with an older version of the Combobox table from previous versions.
Try deleting the db before preforming a clean install of the application.

I am unable to figure out why, any help please ?
In your error you can see it says
System.ArgumentException: '6.1.6,6.2.3' is not a valid version string.
And indeed your problem is actually in this file: https://github.com/MohamedBenighil/WebAppWithDatabaseDemo/blob/055037f9f22bdac6db2edadeab01b412f3c4dca2/WebApp/WebApp.csproj
where you have that invalid Version string in your package reference:
<PackageReference Include="System.Management.Automation" Version="6.1.6,6.2.3" />
When Build Project. Error The "RazorGenerate" task failed unexpectedly. .Net Core 2.2
The fix for me was to introduce a new System Environment Variable with the Key "DOTNET_HOST_PATH" and the value "dotnet" and then to restart Visual Studio.
I did 3 steps to get it to build AND to get the ( ~/ ) variable to work.
Open cmd and write this: setx DOTNET_HOST_PATH "%ProgramFiles%\dotnet\dotnet.exe"
Open C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk in here delete the folder: NuGetFallbackFolder
Restart your pc!
It worked on the build server, after I added this Nuget package:
Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Razor
Since I added the Net.SDK.Razor package, it builds successfully.
I had also added Microsoft.AspNetCore.Razor.Design, but only Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Razor is actually needed.
My Wix toolset installer installs many files, but only one of these I would like to register for COM interop. I have tried the heat automatic registration but can't get it to work, so am falling back to what I used to do in installshield which is run a custom action at the end of installation to register using regasm.
This is failing for reasons I don't understand.
My Product.wxs file registers the action as follows:
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="RegisterAddIn" After="InstallFiles">NOT REMOVE</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
Then creates the action here:
<Fragment>
<CustomAction Id ="RegisterAddIn" Directory ="INSTALLFOLDER" Execute="immediate" ExeCommand="[WindowsFolder]Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\regasm /codebase /tlb "[INSTALLFOLDER]Aeolus.Excel.Addin.dll"" Return ="check"/>
</Fragment>
On running this installer I get the error
"A program run as part of setup did not finish as expected."
Extract from the msiexec log doesn't shown below.
CustomAction RegisterAddIn returned actual error code 100 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)

Editing the .msi file with Orca, I have this entry in the table which looks correct to me:
[WindowsFolder]Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\regasm /codebase /tlb "[INSTALLFOLDER]Aeolus.Excel.Addin.dll"
If I remove these custom actions, run my installer, then run this in a command prompt (run as administrator):
%WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\regasm /codebase /tlb "C:\Program Files (x86)\Aeolus\Aeolus.Excel.Addin.dll"
It registers fine. if not run as administrator it fails of course. Can I assume any custom actions will be run as administrator?
In case anyone else has similar issues, I managed to fix it. It turned out to be a permission issue. I was assuming that the installer and all custom actions ran as administrator but actually you have to tell it to run at that level of permission.
So I needed to make 3 fixes.
1. Request elevated permission in package definintion:
<Package InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" InstallScope="perMachine" InstallPrivileges="elevated" AdminImage="yes"/>
Set "Execute" to "deferred" and "Impersonate" to "no" in custom action definition:
<CustomAction Id ="RegisterAddIn" Directory ="INSTALLFOLDER" Execute="deferred" ExeCommand="[WindowsFolder]Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\regasm /codebase /tlb "[INSTALLFOLDER]Aeolus.Excel.Addin.dll"" Return ="check" Impersonate="no"/>
Then it all runs as expected.

Any ideas of what is going on?
Thanks in advance.
I got this problem many times and at the end solved it according to many resources.
First, go to
C:\ProgramData\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody\8.1.1x64\Share\etc\msvcmake.bat
Then open the file and change
if "%4"=="VC10" set VS_PATH=%VS_2010_PATH%
to
if "%4"=="VC10" set VS_PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0
The path is where you installed the Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0.
The last step (many answers missed this): go to IBM Rational Rhapsody and open your project, then click "Build Framework" at the bottom of "Code" menu.
Then you're free to go!
This is my sample code from asp.net project
Doc abcpdfDoc = new Doc();
abcpdfDoc.MediaBox.String = "0 0 612 1008";
abcpdfDoc.Rect.String = abcpdfDoc.MediaBox.String;
abcpdfDoc.Page = abcpdfDoc.AddPage();
int docID
docID = abcpdfDoc.AddImageUrl(url_html.ToString()); //CAUSES webserver to crash
The code compiles with no warning/error. During debugging, I get a webserver crashed message - the following is the message

I am using abpdf7, downloaded the trial edition and ran the msi in admin mode using command line msiexec /i on win 7 running 32b OS
The reason of crash is that the older version of the library does not work with IE 9.x, upgrading to latest version of library resolved the issue
