ERROR_INDEX_ABSENT

ERROR_INDEX_ABSENT means that the qualifier requested for a qualified component is not present. Qualified components are published MSI components that callers can locate by component category and qualifier.

What to check

  • Verify the component category and qualifier passed to the lookup; a qualifier is not the same thing as a ProductCode.
  • Confirm that the product expected to publish the qualified component is installed or advertised in the relevant context.
  • For package authors, inspect the component publication data instead of adding a fallback to an unrelated component.
