I was talking specifically in your MBA, on the ApplyComplete handler. I was in the 3.8 codebase, but Wix doesn't check for e.Error but rather e.Status.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] CA Error with MBA HI Jacob, Yes, I wrote the CA myself, its pretty simple, it changes some values in an INI file based on choices the user makes during the install. I have several custom actions that do different things, and I found that if any of them fail it does not return an error to my MBA. I broke this one on purpose for testing, and if something goes wrong, I have it write the exception to the log, and return ActionResult.Failure. Let me know if you need any more info.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] CA Error with MBA Not enough information in what you have provided to give you more info... Did you write this CA yourself? What does the CA do? Do you have logging turned on for the CA? To me, it sounds more like the CA is crashing and not actually sending an error back to the BA. Debug the CA to identify the underlying exception. -----Original Message----- From: Nick Miller [mailto:nmil...@livetechnology.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 9:53 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
