I modified the custom action to put the DLL that houses the custom action in the 
[TARGETDIR] but I am still getting the same error.

Any ideas?

I have attached the log output. I think the problem DLL is the DLL that contains my 
customactions. From the log file:

Action start 9:00:53: ConfigureDB.
Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for 
this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package 
vendor.  Action ConfigureDB, entry: DoSQLUpdate, library: 
C:\WINNT\Installer\MSI51D2.tmp 
Action ended 9:00:55: ConfigureDB. Return value 3.
Action ended 9:00:55: INSTALL. Return value 3.

But I am not sure how to fix the problem. Here are the applicable lines in the <msi> 
task.

            <binaries>
                <binary name="PPCINSTALLATION" 
value="${build.dir}\InstallSupport\PPCInstallation.DLL" />
            </binaries>

            <customactions>
                <customaction action="ConfigureDB" type="1" source="PPCINSTALLATION" 
target="DoSQLUpdate" />
           </customactions>

            <sequences>
                <sequence type="installexecute" action="ConfigureDB" value="750" 
condition="NOT Installed" />
            </sequences>

Thanks again.

Kevin

Sure... use msiexec.exe to log the output.
