John,
It may be a silly question (and hopefully is), but does the application
itself have any path-related dependencies? I.e. can you use the same
command line as Installer would use successfully, bearing in mind that
the working directory and the application's installation directory may
not be the same. I haven't launched an installed application using the
mechanism described, but I have triggered the opening of a specific file
from the location it was installed to without any trouble.
Regards,
Richard

Subject: [WiX-users] Run program after installation
Following the steps outlined at the excellent tutorial at
http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson8.php#8.6 works great unless the
user changes the installation directory from the default.
When going down the happy path the log says that the LaunchFile custom
action returns 0 and the program starts. If the installation directory
is changed during installation the log says that LaunchFile returns 1631
and the program does not start.
Is there a way around this problem or another way to run a newly
installed program from the installer.
John
