I found out that when setting the InScript execution type of the managed CA from Deferred in System Context to Deferred Terminal Server Aware, then it works.

From http://blogs.msdn.com/windows_installer_team/archive/2006/10/30/preview-of-upcoming-kb-articles-windows-installer-4-0-on-windows-vista.aspx: *KB Title:* Windows Installer (MSI) packages only have access to the specific privileges of the Windows Installer service on Windows Vista. *Summary:* Software developers should be aware that, starting with Windows Vista, the Windows Installer service only has privileges required for software installation. Custom actions that require additional privileges will fail. *More Information:* The Windows Installer service has the following specific privileges: SeTcbPrivilege,SeCreatePagefilePrivilege,SeLockMemoryPrivilege,SeIncreaseBasePriorityPrivilege,SeCreatePermanentPrivilege,SeAuditPrivilege,SeSecurityPrivilege,SeChangeNotifyPrivilege,SeProfileSingleProcessPrivilege,SeImpersonatePrivilege,SeCreateGlobalPrivilege,SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege,SeRestorePrivilege,SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege,SeShutdownPrivilege,SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege,SeLoadDriverPrivilege. Since Custom Actions inherit the same privileges of the Windows Installer service, custom actions will have only these privileges, even when running in an elevated context. If your application installation requires configuration that requires other privileges, it can not be done though a Custom Action. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
