I have the following situation:

I am creating an MSI in which I need to run a CA early in the 
installation process, the DA is in a C dll. The CA "Requires" Admin 
access under Vista.  I am wrapping the msi in a setup.exe boot strapper 
that has a manifest with requestedExecutionLevel 
level="requireAdministrator". In my WIX project I have a condition for 
AdminUser and in the package I have InstallPrivileges set to elevated. 
The dll has requireAdministrator in its manifest.

The problem that I'm having is that the code that I'm executing in my CA 
fails to execute correctly.  I extracted the code and compiled it into 
an exe with the same manifest as above.  When I run the exe the code 
completes correctly!

In both cases I am getting prompted for an Admin password...which would 
lead one to think that the installer is running as an Admin user...but 
the CA fails.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx
Chuck
