I'm not sure how Team Build goes about its business. I know that it's a machine level service, beyond that it's just a black box to me. I've made the windows installer policy information the least restrictive, but I still encountered the issue.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] LGHT0217 & VSTS Well, it probably isn't that then. Another bad stab, your Team Build doens't start inside a build environment does it? By default I believe they don't. The error message is puzzling because it seems to be saying that it just can't find msiexec.

Cc: John Nannenga Subject: Re: [WiX-users] LGHT0217 & VSTS Hey John, Sorry to leave you hanging on Friday. I know you mentioned that UAC has been turned off on the machine, but does the service account running the build have Admin. rights (...stabbing in the dark here...)? Is it allowed to run MSIs? I haven't worked with Team Build at this point so I am not sure where else to look off the top of my head.
