InstallShield 2010 SQL Script multi line comment bug?

I think I found a bug with multi-line comments and SQL scripts in InstallShield 2010.

To reproduce the bug, create a basic MSI project. Go to Installation Designer -> SQL Scripts, create a SQL connection then add a new script that contains the following script:

/*
USE [master]
GO
*/

USE master
GO

Build the MSI and try to install it, you will receive the following MSI error:

Error 27506.Error executing SQL script sqlscript.sql. Line 3. Missing end comment mark '*/'. (113)

Changing the multi-line comment t开发者_开发问答o -- form will solve the issue. Also, if the end comment mark is not being preceded by a GO statement, the install will not fail. For instance:

/*
THIS
WILL
NOT
FAIL
*/

Has someone experienced this bug? Any way to "fix" it?

PS: I'll be posting this to Flexara's forum.

This sounds like known behavior to me. I believe the parsing looks for lines of GO without respect to anything else, so multi-line comments do not affect it. See hidenori's second response on the thread Install Shield is trashing SQL Scripts.

You appear to have already identified the workaround - change the GO to a --GO.
