custom actions work in Wix 2.0. Specifically, I would like some advice on how
to debug a problem I am seeing when uninstalling my product. I am using this

It looks like you have two problems here in MSI terms:
There's supposed to be a ComboBox table in the MSI file but error 2205
indicates it's missing, as it says.
Error 2867 indicates that there is no error dialog so that Windows can
show you that error, that's the form at sequence number -3 in

I use a custom action to set a property and then use that property to
create the shortcut on the client desktop. However, I also display a
dialog so the user can specify the name of the server. Without passing
in the name of the server I don't see how it can know which machine to
use.

Is there a way that it can be done?

So, basically, you're wanting the client install to search the server
for the Component? I think ComponentSearch, since it is running in the
context of the MSI on the client, won't look to another machine for that

That's the way I meant it; it's dark's fault. The exception messages
aren't very user friendly. I was just trying not to spark a holy war
because all tools have their advantages and disadvantages.

No problem.
You may not have meant it the way you wrote it... but I don't agree with the
concept of InstallShield making dark throw exceptions.That is all dark's
doing.

Seems like there is a problem in drawing the dialog. What are you
attempting to do with the combo box on that page? Is there a custom action
that is populating it? If not, can you send the relevant snippet of the wxs

Hello wix-users,
this is a follow up to my emails from a few days ago about problems with COM
registration. I think the problem is that I am violating component rules,

My program ships with a com server dll file which will need to be upgraded
from time to time.

I've read tat you should digitally sign all MSI and CAB files when you make
