Bob, I generated a log file this morning and here is the section for my custom action...
Action 9:21:43: LaunchFile. Action start 9:21:43: LaunchFile. Action ended 9:21:43: LaunchFile. Return value 1631. Action ended 9:21:43: ExitDialog. Return value 1. Action ended 9:21:43: INSTALL. Return value 1. Property(C): INSTALLDIR = C:\Test foo\ INSTALLDIR is correct and all of my application files where installed there. The 1631 error is ERROR_CREATE_FAILED...The Windows Installer service failed to start... Sounds like MSI is try to start again...not start my app?? HMMM.
