The only certificate installation bug I found in the old sourceforge site was this: http://sourceforge.net/p/wix/bugs/1353/ and that one was marked fixed in 2008 (it also describes a different bug with the same error code) and in the new system is found here: http://wixtoolset.org/issues/1768/.
The "tracker” link below isn’t to a specific bug but to the “bugs” group on SF. Otherwise the existing bug report never contained the error number. I would suggest opening a new bug. Include your knowledge of the Overwrite attribute causing the error message. Also please include the with the bug report.

InstallCertificates: Error 0x80070057: Failed to resolve certificate: SSL_Cerificate CustomAction InstallCertificates returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox) Turns out that Overwrite="yes" is the culprit. This bug has been reported and acknowledged long ago, but is still present in WiX 3.8. The quoted link to the bug database is a dead end. I just lost an entire afternoon to this because who would think that Overwrite="yes" causes this failure, and then only when CertificatePath is used? Would someone please supply an update on this bug and, if appropriate, a fresh link to its entry in the bug database? Also, there is zero documentation on the semantics of the Overwrite property.
