Ok, I now have a major problem. User tries to install the application and she receives error messages. I suggested her to copy installation directory to her local drive and run the setup.exe, but it gives her the error...
I'm going to try to run the installation from disks myself (I tried to run it from the distribution directory before and it worked fine). Can I use files from another directory while building Setup? May be it was the problem?

This isn't an area that I've tested with the DLL, however. Using the short path isn't all that bad. I know that in the case of some versions of IIS, you can't use an LFN.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
