Fixing problems building MSI's in Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite

 

Every time I create a MSI File I get the following error:

Error 1706.An installation package for the product Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite - ENU cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'vs_setup.msi'.

After checking the event log I had warnings with the following message:

Detection of product '{1862162E-3BBC-448F-AA63-49F33152D54A}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Ent_Suite' failed during request for component '{FD153241-37EC-11D2-8892-00A0C981B015}'

It has something to do with the installer cache that is not correct.

So I start google and found that I had to run the following command:

msiexec /fvomus {1862162E-3BBC-448F-AA63-49F33152D54A} /l*v vs8_repair.log

with the respective ID ({1862162E-3BBC-448F-AA63-49F33152D54A}) that appears in event log.

The "v" option in /fvomus will re-cache the source package.

Check Heath Stewart for more info.
