I am getting an installer error that does not happen consistently. I am using Wix 3.0.5419.0 and have a package that installs two IIS web application. From the log below it looks like it successfully created the app pool and added one of the sites ... but then starts failing and does not install the web application. I run the installer again and I don't get the error and it installs successfully. This error happens every so often.
My system is Win7 (64bit), IIS 7 with IIS 6 Management Compatibility Mode On Here is the log portion that errors: MSI (s) (04:C4) [09:32:34:127]: Invoking remote custom action.
