Ah, ok,  the one in [ProgramFilesFolder]Microsoft Visual Studio
8\SDK\v2.0\BootStrapper\Packages\vcredist_x86 is up to date with SP1. 
 
While I'm on this subject, I've noticed that Orca will unconditionally
change modify dates on merge modules. You don't need to alter them in
any way, just open and close.  The result is that they look like data
files that have been modified, and in this particular case it means that
VS 2005 SP1 will not update you with new versions of the merge modules
because of the MSI update rules.

I find it hard to believe they put a refresh up there on April 10th that
is not for SP1, but you're right, it's for the RTM. The embedded
versions are still at 8.0.50727.42, sigh.

        As an easy test, install the VC support redist for VS 2005 on a
test system and see if your custom action (writtten in VS 2005, yes?)
works. That'll isolate it to a C++ dependency on the 8.0 CRT etc

Unfortunately this is the "pre-SP1" version of the runtime, and there
doesn't seem to exist a link to the "post-SP1" version...

        I found a co-worker lucky enough to have 05 installed and built
my dll there (easy as pie) but the CA still bails, apparently before it
has a chance to log anything.

         

        Is there any way to determine from the log why a CA is failing
to execute, if it appears that its never even getting into the CA in the
first place?

        I read that they might be defined by default in VS05, but not in
VS03 (what I'm using.)

        
        Did you rebuild wcautil.lib? I'm not sure whether you're going
to run into problems mixing an '05 static lib with '03.
