We've recently upgraded from InstallShield 2015 to 2016 SP2. I opened my existing Projects in 2016, and InstallShield upgraded them with no errors. But when I try to build in the GUI I get the following:
Error 429: ActiveX component can't create object
When I try to build using the commandline...
IsCmdBld.exe -p "C:\Path to IS Project file\ProjectFile.ism" -v
...I get the following:
InstallShield (R) Release Builder Copyright (c) 2016 Flexera Software LLC.
All Rights Reserved. -1131: Failed to load sabuild.dll.
We have several older versions of InstallShield on the particular machine. These Project files were working fine until I tried building them in 2016. I can open copies of the backed up Project files in 2015 and they still build without error. I have searched the entire computer for "sabuild.dll". None found.
This occurs when I try to build MSI or EXE.
We have InstallShield 2016 SP2 Professional and the update manager says we are on the latest. This is installed on Windows 10 Pro 32-bit (don't ask, I'm not operations and I inherited this setup).
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package.
Also Installshield 2016 originally had an issue with detecting vc++ libraries, so you may need to update to SP2.
