The problem does not seem to be specific to an OS or virtual machine. I've
seen this on WinXP and Vista all running without VMs.

Are there additional trace/log facilities that I could turn on to better
debug this?

| Hi Bassam,
| 
| You're right, it does sound related to the .NET custom action issue that I
| posted about earlier in the year. What OSes are the problematic machines
| running? Are they virtual machines?
| 
| I have not yet found a solution to my problem unfortunately, although it
only
| occurs rarely so it hasn't been too much of an issue.

| 
| I'm seeing the following weirdness in the setup log on some of our
clients'
| machines:
| 
| 
| 
| MSI (s) (74:88) [16:20:20:178]: Invoking remote custom action. DLL:
| C:\Windows\Installer\MSIC1F3.tmp, Entrypoint: SaveOldConfig
| 
| Action start 16:20:20: CA_SaveOldConfig.
| 
| SFXCA: Extracting custom action to temporary directory:
| C:\Windows\Installer\MSIC1F3.tmp-\
| 
| SFXCA: Binding to CLR version v2.0.50727
| 
| Calling custom action
| migrateconfig!Migration.MigrateCustomAction.SaveOldConfig
| 
| SaveOldConfig: Save successful.
| 
| CustomAction CA_SaveOldConfig returned actual error code 1603 (note this
| may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
| 
| Action ended 16:20:20: CA_SaveOldConfig. Return value 3.
| 
| 
| 
| Note that CA succeeded and returned ActionResult.Success. However, the
| CA still failed with 1603. Is this something SfxCa.cpp or in the wrapper
| CustomActionProxy that might have returned the 1603? Note that the CA
| runs in immediate mode and this error happens on a small number of
| machines.
| 
| 
| 
| This seems related to
| http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/NET-
| Custom-Act
| ion-fails-intermittently-on-some-machines-td4659699.html. Was that issue
| resolved?
| 
| 
| 
| Also I think we are only using the 32-bit sfxca and deploying it on both
64 and
| 32 bit machines. Could this be causing this problem?
| 
| 
| 
| Any help would be greatly appreciated.
| 
| 
| 
| Thanks!
