In the log, does it give a specific error code after the part where it says it's returning a status of 3? Oftentimes it will and you can use that to look up its meaning.
I noticed that you're running this custom action as "immediate". If you're deleting files, should it come during the deferred stage? That way it can be rolled back if there's a failure. If the folder is empty at the time you're trying to delete it, could you use the WiX element RemoveFolder? ----- Nick Ramirez Learn WiX with the book: https://www.packtpub.com/wix-a-developers-guide-to-windows-installer-xml/book WiX: A Developer's Guide to Windows Installer XML -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Custom-Action-tp5677972p5682719.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
