Hi,
I've created an MSM project which executes a Custom Action.. however
having hooked the MSM into a Setup project, during the installation if
fails with the following error...
<h2>CustomAction RegisterAddIn returned actual error code 1154 (note
this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your
support personnel or package vendor. Action RegisterAddIn, entry:
RegisterAddin, library: C:\Windows\Installer\MSI9DDB.tmp
</h2>
Oddly if I reference the CA from the setup proj directly its fine.
I've replicated this issue in a very simple installation package... the
bare nuts of which I've included below...
Can anyone suggest what I'm missing??
Code example....
** Custom action **
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult RegisterAddIn(Session session)
{
session.Log("Begin CustomAction1");
return ActionResult.Success;
}
