ERROR:This application has failed to start because mia.lib

applicationPackaging created the topic: ERROR:This application has failed to start because mia.lib
Hi.
I am using installaware 9 to install my application, in a Web Deploy configuration.
Now when I try to run a new version of the installer, On XP everything works fine.
When I try to install it on vista the most strange thing happens – I get a pop-up saying “This application has failed to start because mia.lib was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem”

BUT the application itself does install and does run!!

I searched the forum and saw that this error is mentioned, but what other people wrote does not reflect exactly my problem.
