That wordpress code seems (reasonably enough!) to be based on this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367525(VS.85).aspx
where it says that both an immediate and deferred custom actions are needed for this. The code at that wordpress link seems to have both required pieces of code in one custom action where the code path depends on whether it's in immediate mode or deferred mode. So my suggestion is that you need to add this action both immediate and deferred, and it does the right thing based on InstallRunMode.Scheduled.

We are using the Manager Custom action. I have tried by executing the Custom Action in Both Deferred and Immediate custom action. But the Progress text alone changed but no progress bar. I have also tried this even no progress bar. http://taocoyote.wordpress.com/2009/05/19/adding-managed-custom-actions-to-the-progressbar/ Is any idea ? How to move the progress when custom action is running.
