Visual Studio installer does not include satellite asset build

I have a VS2008 installer project that installs a .NET Windows service. One of the service dependencies is a .NET assembly, which has localized resources as a companion assembly. For some reason, the installer doesn't package or install the satellite build, and hence the service won't start. Any ideas?

If you right-click on the project in Solution Explorer and choose View> Files, you can see which files will be installed on the target machine.

It can be as simple as adding a localized resource file as output in the Target Machine application directory.



However, check the installer project dependencies and make sure all projects (main assembly, etc.) are listed.

Hope it helps!
