Re: [WiX-users] Custom action from ControlEvent fails

Thanks Pavan, Phil. Turned out I had defined my custom action incorrectly: Since this is a type 50 CA, Property should be set to executable name. So this works: I changed this to use CAQuietExec so the console window doesn't pop up. Works well now. Thanks! -- View this message in context:

Re: [WiX-users] Custom action from ControlEvent fails

Thanks Pavan. "Execute" is set to "immediate" if not specified. I explicitly set it to "immediate". Still get the same error. Setting to "deferred" generates the error: DEBUG: Error 2762: Unable to schedule operation. The action must be scheduled between InstallInitialize and InstallFinalize.
