Actually, in this case, it's failing because the CustomAction is trying to run
*long* before the files are installed. The CustomAction would need to be
deferred and scheduled after InstallFiles to launch successfully. *Then* it
would hit the problem Jim notes below. <smile/>

It is probably failing because you are trying to invoke an installer when an
installer is already running. You need to install separate installers
sequentially, not from within one another. You would need a bootstrapper to do
that.
