Try to set "LOGVERBOSE=1" property to see the verbose logging of QuietExec. Try to print the full path of the executed binary before calling QuietExec, probably the path is incorrect.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] QuietExec in CA Hi, I am passing the exe I need to execute in quotes, with its complete path. In the msi log I see: CallQEx: Initialized. CallQEx: Error 0x80070002: Command failed to execute. Action ended 10:07:13: CallQEx. Return value 1. Where CallQEx is the C++ CA from where I call QuietExec. Has anyone of us used QuietExec in C++ CA and can point out what I might be missing here? Any help will be highly appreciated.
