I am having a problem calling an external boo script from wix. Here is the tag
<CustomAction Id="InstallScript" Property="INSTALLSCRIPTRESULT" ExeCommand='"[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]boo\booi.exe" "[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]install.dir.boo" "[WEBINSTALLDIR]." "[INSTALLDIR]." "[DIRECTORYNAME]" "[DATABASEPASSWORD]"' /> If I paste the command text from the log into a command prompt it runs as expecte. The ExeCommand is quoted using single quotes (as I *think* i need to use double quotes for paths, i havent tested this though). Here is the relevant log section: Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action: InstallScript, location: , command: "C:\Program Files\PROGRAM\PROGRAMWebModuleV56\install-script\boo\booi.exe" "C:\Program Files\PROGRAM\PROGRAMWebModuleV56\install-script\install.dir.boo" "C:\Program Files\PROGRAM\PROGRAMWebModuleV56\." "C:\Program Files\PROGRAM\." "PROGRAM" "test" MSI (s) (B4:6C) [19:31:47:268]: Product: AAA PROGRAM V5.6 Web Module -- Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.
