Right, sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I'll consider this a bug with the task, and add a check to make sure that ProductCode and UpgradeCode are defined. Thanks for pointing this out...

By adding the following, <property name="ProductCode" value="{EEDB0FA4-01F3-465f-8D1F-1705181B560E}" /> everything looks AOK. Ted Original message: I'm trying to figure out how the msi target works by creating an incredibly basic example and playing around with components, features, etc. (see below). The target builds and successfully creates an msi file. When I execute the msi file, everything runs fine until the very last step. I get the following errors: "Install Engine Not Initialized" Followed by: "Called InstallFinalize when no install in progress!" This is probably due to a very simple and perhaps obvious omission/error. The problem is that it's not obvious to me. Any thoughts?
