i have a merge module that needs to fire off a CAQuietExec custom
action:<Property Id="QtExecDeferred" Value='"Tools\mytool.exe"' /><CustomAction
Id="QtExecDeferred" BinaryKey="WixCA" DllEntry="CAQuietExec" Execute="deferred"
Return="check"/><InstallExecuteSequence> <Custom Action="QtExecDeferred"
Before="InstallFinalize"/></InstallExecuteSequence>my installation fails and
rolls back with this error in the log:CAQuietExec: Error 0x80070002: Command
failed to execute.CAQuietExec: Error 0x80070002: CAQuietExec Failedi am
thinking it is a path problem and it cant find the exe because if i comment out
the custom action and run the same commandline after the install everything is
fine, the exe to run is specified in the merge module in a tools subdirectory
like this:<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory
Id="MergeRedirectFolder"> <Directory Id="TOOLS" Name="Tools">
<Component Id="mytool.exe" Guid="{SOME-GUID}"> <File Id="mytool.exe"
Name="mytool.exe" KeyPath="yes" Source="mytool.exe" />
</Component>...i would like to use a fully qualified path but haven't been able
to figure out how to get the QtExecDeferred property to be fully qualified
(properties like INSTALLDIR dont seem to be accessible? i tried a few different
things like this:<Property Id="QtExecDeferred"
Value='"[MergeRedirectFolder]\Tools\mytool.exe"' />or<Property
Id="QtExecDeferred" Value='"[TARGETDIR]\Tools\PerformanceCounterCreator.exe"'
/>and got the following results in my log:QtExecDeferred.THE_MODULE_GUID =
"[MergeRedirectFolder]\Tools\mytool.exe"and
QtExecDeferred.THE_MODULE_GUID = "[TARGETDIR]\Tools\mytool.exe"please help...TIA-------------------------------------------------------------------------
