Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Custom actions failing on XP Multithreaded ought to be fine - I was referring to the dynamically/statically linking options (lib vs dll), but if you've already got the runtimes on the machine, then it wasn't the problem I was thinking about. -----Original Message----- From: Natalie Carr [mailto:natalie.c...@measuresoft.com] Sent: 25 January 2013 11:24 To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.'

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Custom actions failing on XP Have you tried linking to the C++ runtimes statically instead of to the DLLs ? The target runtime might be missing on XP. -----Original Message----- From: Natalie Carr [mailto:natalie.c...@measuresoft.com] Sent: 25 January 2013 10:35 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Custom actions failing on XP Hi along with my wix installer I have a dll created using the C++ custom action project. However on running my setup on XP the custom actions are all returning value 3 and failing. I believe they are not even getting entered as the logs don't show them being initialized. I need help asap as I have to resolve this quickly. Anyone any ideas what could be wrong? Please I am using VS2012 if that could be the issue.
