Oh, here it is
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="ConfigureClientAction" Before="InstallFinalize" />
</InstallExecuteSequence>
Once I fix the problem, how do I go back to a clean state in my system i.e.
guarantee that the uninstall has worked?

That's the definition of the CA, but where is it scheduled? Judging from the
name of the CA, it's modifying a payload the installer deploys. Since your CA
is modifying machine state, it should be a deferred CA and you should provide a
rollback/uninstall CA as well. (That's more than likely the root of your
problem, but until we can see your install execute sequence, it's just a hunch.)
To get verbose logs, use /l*v <path to log> when calling msiexec.
Ex: msiexec /l*v %TEMP%\debug.log /I foo.msi

My entry looks like this
<CustomAction Id="ConfigureClientAction"
Return="check"
Execute="immediate"
BinaryKey="ConfigureClient"
DllEntry="EncryptConfigFile" />
The action does a ActionResult.Success
I am no expert on Wix so I don't know how to find the log file!

What's the condition on your custom action? What does the log file on the
initial install look like?

Hi,
I have created a Wix installer with a custom action.
However, I need to run the installer twice (without uninstalling inbetween) for
the custom action to work.
Any ideas why?
I thought that I may have not properly uninstalled the application properly. I
used the Control Panel. Is there a registry setting I can remove which will
make my application be fully uninstalled from Windows.
Thanks
Jason
