Running msiexec with '/log installationLog.txt' the log file contains: EXEREG_PckgInstllr Action 17:17:03: EXEREG_PckgInstllr. Action start 17:17:03: EXEREG_PckgInstllr. EXEREG_PckgInstllr: Action ended 17:17:03: EXEREG_PckgInstllr. Return value 1.
I take this to mean it ran and succeeded. Still, the app that depends upon it does not find it, nor does it exist in the registry until I manually register it. Any further suggestions? I'm going to try Orca to see if it reveals anything. Any suggestions of what to look for? I love inheriting code... =) Raj > -----Original Message----- > From: Brian Simoneau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2007 11:04 AM > To: Tanikella, Rajanikanth (SCR US); wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Registering an EXE via a Custom Action > > That would imply a different issue.
