Took me a 2 days to figure this out, so thought to pass it along. If you try to install Enterprise Service Bus Guidance 2.0 CTP2 on x64, it will throw an error similar to “The Application required Enterprise Library version 4. Please install the Enterprise Library V4 and then run the installer.”
The problem is that the MSI is looking for this registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Enterprise Library v4
While EntLib created the key here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Enterprise Library v4
So…create the key and string values yourself. Enjoy!
