SYMPTOMS
When you use the Application Deployment Wizard to install an application that contains very complex files or a large number of files (for example, more than 5000) to the Exchange store, the progress bar reaches 99% complete and the Application Deployment Wizard disappears from the screen.



CAUSE
As the number of items in an application, the number of properties on each item, and the size of the data for each property increase, the size of Package.xml directly increases. Eventually the computer runs out of memory loading the file and the Application Deployment Wizard exits without warning. The number of files that it takes to cause this failure varies with the complexity of each file.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Successfully package an Exchange store application that contains more than 5000 files.
 * 2) Use the Application Deployment Wizard to deploy that application to a new location.
 * 3) Monitor the progress bar.
