Thanks so much for the suggestions guys :-) I will definitly look at the dotNetInstaller bootstapper. Please correct me if I have misunderstood: I can still call this bootstrapper from my msi, which will install all the prerequisites and once all is successful, my msi can resume with installation of the application? The reason for installing SQLExpress using .msi is that, I need to create a setup that would take care of all the components needed for my application without without much manual intervention. many thanks! -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/CustomActi on-fails-with-error-code-1603-tp6000977p6001174.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.
