Your call to dism has the path '[WindowsFolder]SysWOW64\dism.exe'. If you open an Admin CMD box and type your full command you will get a better explanation of the error. SysWOW64 specifies the 32 bit operating system files. Error 11 is returned which indicates that you cannot service a running 64 bit image with the 32 bit version of dism.exe.
On a 64 bit system you would want to use [System64Folder]dism.exe. I have also been working on this issue and find that it is not uncommon to come across Windows 8 installations which have the NetFx3 feature 'payload removed', which also causes dism.exe to fail. However in this situation I find that "[System64Folder]fondue.exe" /enable-feature:NetFx3 /hide-ux:all succeeds. fondue.exe is not available pre VersionNT < 602. I am still researching some of these issues, but I hope this infor helps. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Simple-MSI-failing-Error-3-2147287038-tp7592771p7592789.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.
