Hello NG

Can anybody help me?
Hint, you can rename, the .ism file to .msi to open it in Orca, fix the issues, then rename it back to .ism and build it in InstallShield.
MSI (s) (E8!34) [12:06:47:525]:
"
The last section of the beginning of each line, 12:06:47:525, is a timestamp in the form of hh:mm:ss:miliseconds. If you review the lines you posted, you'll note that the time elapsed is minimal.
I would suggest reviewing the log and looking for a set of timestamps where the amount of time you're expecting has elapsed between two log lines.
For example, the following two signatures for log lines might demonstrate this issue:

To determine why files are not being updated, check the feature and component states in the InstallValidate action and check for file replacement during the InstallFiles action.
Also note that, based on the file keys listed in the log output, it appears you are using some form of dynamic file links. When using dynamic file links, rules 1 and 3 of the following KB article need to be implemented for a patch to update files successfully:
