I edited the original e-mail to put the elements on different lines only.
Try adding an Id attribute to the CustomAction element that sets the
property, i.e., Id='SetProp_QtExecDeferred'. Also, set execution of this to
'immediate'. You also need to call this custom action within the
InstallExecuteSequence, like so:
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action='SetProp_QtExecDeferred' ... />
<Custom Action='QtExecDeferred' ... />
</InstallExecuteSequence>

Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Should I not be using V3 of WiX? I was under the impression that I needed
to use V3 if I wanted to use the "feature-rich" version of Votive.
Thanks,
Kevin

attribute on Custom element
I'm trying to execute a deferred command line in my MSI. I want it to
execute only on uninstall prior to a service being stopped/uninstalled. I'm
following the code snippet I found in the help. So I have some code like:
<CustomAction Property="QtExecDeferred" Value="[INSTALLLOCATION]foo.exe" />
<CustomAction Id="QtExecDeferred" BinaryKey="wixca" DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Execute="deferred" Return="check"/>
<Binary Id="wixca" SourceFile="wixca.dll"/>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="QtExecDeferred" Before="StopServices">Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
When I try to compile this I get the error: Cannot set column 'Action' with
a null value because this is a required field. I'm using WiX version 3, the
version released in December 2006. Any ideas? Thanks,Kevin
