The Property attribute should just be the name of a property containing the full path of the executable. You need to schedule another custom action before CreateCaspol20CA that sets the full path of the executable to a property and then use that in the Property attribute of CreateCaspol20CA.

If I copy everything after the 4: in the error message above, and paste it on the command line, it works fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
