I fix the problem :). There was a action missing in the InstallUISequence
tables, adding the correct steps made all working fine..
Thanks

Subject: Error in Install Directory Dialog - WiX 3.0
Hi,
I am pretty new to WiX and MSI creation, trying to learn and do things.
I am trying to achieve a very basic functionality in my MSI where user can
see/edit the install directly path from the UI.
I have added two dialogs (InstallDir and Browser) for this in UI file. And
tried to impalement the way it's in documents and tutorials, however the things
seem not working.
I get Error 2343. An internal error has occurred. ( ). On UI
when the InstallDir dialog called.
The dialogs I have written are:
<!--Dialog to display/edit the Install directory path -->

<Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="Microsoft">
I can share more details if needed,
Few things I tried.
If I use Property instead of TARGETDIR at all the places and assign
the Property with fix values like "c:\" the InstallDir dialog works but now
error is thrown by Browser dialog.
Please suggest if anyone has come across such issue or know the fix.
Appreciate any short of help.
Thanks
Sachin
