I have a binary custom action exe. I am having a strange issue with running this EXE during a very specific install sequence.
I have 3 MSI versions (say version 1,2, and 3). 1. I use GPO deployment for version 1. (works fine) 2. After it is successful, I do a manual install (double click on MSI file) of version 2. (Note that during the removal process of the older version, after rebooting the system a 'ghost' entry in add/remove programs shows up with the old version along side the newer version. Almost as if 2 versions are installed but really only the latter one is and works fine) 3. After this, I do another manual install of version 3. (PROBLEM) The problem seems to happen in my binary custom exe. It gives the standard error of: "Action 22:21:53: LaunchDriverManagerInstallReboot. Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action LaunchDriverManagerInstallReboot, location: C:\WINDOWS\Installer\MSI2A.tmp, command: installreboot MSI (s) (A4:EC) [22:22:18:199]: Product: Pano Direct Service 2.8.2 Debug Build -- Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action LaunchDriverManagerInstallReboot, location: C:\WINDOWS\Installer\MSI2A.tmp, command: installreboot " Now I have verified through log messages that this exe isn't even being running (by putting a log message in the first line of its main() ). Also I have checked event viewer to make sure no side by side assembly issues were happening. What else could cause this exe not to run (in this special 3 part scenario?) -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Binary-Custom-Action-tp3792595p3792595.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
