Only thing is ActiveMQ doesn't have an installer, just a "copy these files here, run this batch file, then start the service" set of instructions. So my first wix project is writing writing an installer for someone else's app who can't be bothered to make their own. At least it's an easy set of instructions. Copying the file was easy enough, but I'm stuck on the running the batch file step. The fragment to run InstallService.bat looks like this: <Fragment> <Property Id="QtExecCmdLine" Value="unset"/> <CustomAction Id="CA_InstallActiveMQService_Property" Property="QtExecCmdLine" Value='"[INSTALL_Win64_FOLDER]InstallService.bat"' Execute="immediate" /> <CustomAction Id="CA_InstallActiveMQService" BinaryKey="WixCA" DllEntry="CAQuietExec" Execute="immediate" Return="ignore"/> <InstallExecuteSequence> <Custom Action="CA_InstallActiveMQService_Property" Before="InstallServices">NOT Installed</Custom> <Custom Action="CA_InstallActiveMQService" After="CA_InstallActiveMQService_Property"></Custom> </InstallExecuteSequence> </Fragment> When I run it the files are moved over right, but the service isn't installed and the log for this step says: MSI (s) (B8:E0) [14:18:53:853]: Doing action: CA_InstallActiveMQService_Property MSI (s) (B8:E0) [14:18:53:853]: Note: 1: 2205 2: 3: ActionText Action 14:18:53: CA_InstallActiveMQService_Property.
