Without deeper knowign the issue: Are you trying to run an MSI from
another one ? If yes: Not recommended! The only workaround is to abuse
the InstallUI sequence for such an approach. This fails e.g. if user
runs installer without UI! A short fragment to illustrate such an
approach:
<CustomAction Id="Install_MSI" Impersonate="yes" Execute="immediate"
Directory="WindowsFolder" ExeCommand="msiexec.exe /i
"c:\MyMSIpackage.msi" /qb" Return="ignore" />
<InstallUISequence>
<Custom Action="Install_MSI" After="ProgressDlg">Not
Installed</Custom>
</InstallUISequence>
But to emphasis it again. Not recommended by MSDN but to be honest I
do a similat approach as well e.g. for deploying the VCRedists.
