That error message and error 193 seem to indicate that Heat is
expecting a Win32 Self Registering COM Dll, not a .NET Dll. What are
you expecting to harvest?

It looks like you have the .mst files because you are then embedding
into the MSI file. So you can open the base MSI file with Orca and use
the Transforms menu to apply them, the changes being highlighted. Do
you maybe no longer have the mst files or something?

You have a majorupgrade element as well as an upgrade element. I'm
not sure why. A single majorupgrade element with AllowDowngrades=yes
should suffice. You should also post the entire log.

If this is a deferred CA in a per machine install the code will be
running with the system account which usually has not network access
