COM dll registration and installer project

Gary Hughes

I have an installer project for a COM dll on my solution,
when I build the installer I get a warning - see below.
The properties are set so the the dll should be registered
upon installation however since this warning has started
appearing the dll no longer registers automatically
although I can do it by hand with no problems. Does anyone
have an idea of what could cause this or how to get more
information from the installer as to why its failing?

------ Build started: Project: ITGAcom_install,
Configuration: Debug ------

Building file 'c:\bin\ITGAcom.msi'...
