Actually that was the complete error message:
candle.exe(0,0): Error CNDL0001: Cannot set column 'Action' with a null value
because this is a required field.
Julie hit upon the solution in another reply. I needed to add an "Id"
attribute to the CustomAction Property="QtExecDeferred" listed below. The
error message was a little misleading though.
Now I'm running into a new issue though. It can't find wixca.dll. I didn't
see it under \program files\windows installer xml\...
Is there a new way to use CAQuietExec in Wix V3?
Thanks,Kevin

Can you post the complete error message? If you want to use WiX v3, you should
update more often, from the weekly releases site if there aren't "official"

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Should I not be using V3 of WiX? I was
under the impression that I needed to use V3 if I wanted to use the
"feature-rich" version of Votive. Thanks,Kevin

I'm trying to execute a deferred command line in my MSI. I want it to execute
only on uninstall prior to a service being stopped/uninstalled. I'm following
the code snippet I found in the help. So I have some code like: <CustomAction
Property="QtExecDeferred" Value="[INSTALLLOCATION]foo.exe" /><CustomAction
Id="QtExecDeferred" BinaryKey="wixca" DllEntry="CAQuietExec" Execute="deferred"
Return="check"/><Binary Id="wixca" SourceFile="wixca.dll"/>
<InstallExecuteSequence><Custom Action="QtExecDeferred" Before="StopServices"
>Installed</Custom></InstallExecuteSequence> When I try to compile this I get
the error: Cannot set column 'Action' with a null value because this is a
required field. I'm using WiX version 3, the version released in December
2006. Any ideas? Thanks,Kevin
