Thanks alot,
That did the trick, however the Directory attrib expects a property id
of an existing Directory, so no need for the []:
CustomAction Id=InstallScript
Directory=INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR
ExeCommand='[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]boo\booi.exe
[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]install.dir.boo
[WEBINSTALLDIR].
[INSTALLDIR]. [DIRECTORYNAME] [DATABASEPASSWORD]' /

Hi Nick,
Try this:
CustomAction Id=InstallScript
Directory=[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]
ExeCommand='[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]boo\booi.exe
[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]install.dir.boo
[WEBINSTALLDIR].
[INSTALLDIR]. [DIRECTORYNAME] [DATABASEPASSWORD]' /
Add please tell me the sequence of this custom action.
Thanks

I am having a problem calling an external boo script from wix.
Here is the tag
CustomAction Id=InstallScript Property=INSTALLSCRIPTRESULT
ExeCommand='[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]boo\booi.exe
[INSTALLSCRIPTINSTALLDIR]install.dir.boo
[WEBINSTALLDIR].
[INSTALLDIR]. [DIRECTORYNAME] [DATABASEPASSWORD]' /
If I paste the command text from the log into a command prompt it runs
as expecte. The ExeCommand is quoted using single quotes (as I *think*
i need to use double quotes for paths, i havent tested this though).
Here is the relevant log section:
Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
program required for this install to complete could not be run.
