E 1603

Hello All,
MSI Error code 1603 seems to be exotic different things could generate it. I could just generate this error code by calling an IA MSI blank setup project from another IA project.
However my blank setup is utterly empty, which means, zero number of code line in MSIcode !
Please take a glance on my attached log file and enlighten me what could be a problem.
Regards,
Tommy

This basically happens also when a blank setup project calls another blank msi file.

Dear Tommy,
it is not relly easy to find out what exactly is causing the error from your log ... it seems a call to DLL failure ... but I can't confirm it.
Try to post a very minimal project and I'll verify it.

Hello,
I will attempt to solve this problem without having an additional MSI call because (according to the documentation) "Run Program As" command should be able spawn new process with defined environment.

Tommy

Hello,
I have two IA QuickSetup projects
A and
B, which is required by
A.
I can install
B by just installing it, however the following error occurs while installer
A starts to install
B as a runtime pre-requisite.
Action start 15:45:17: ACTEZ.
MSI (s) (C4:60) [15:45:17:799]: Note: 1: 2235 2: 3: ExtendedType 4: SELECT `Action`,`Type`,`Source`,`Target`, NULL, `ExtendedType` FROM `CustomAction` WHERE `Action` = 'ACTEZ'
MSI (s) (C4:60) [15:45:17:819]: Creating MSIHANDLE (7) of type 790542 for thread 2400
MSI (s) (C4:FC) [15:45:17:832]: Invoking remote custom action. DLL: C:\WINDOWS\Installer\MSI5DD5.tmp, Entrypoint: ActProc
CustomAction ACTEZ returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
MSI (s) (C4:FC) [15:45:17:882]: Closing MSIHANDLE (7) of type 790542 for thread 2400
Action ended 15:45:17: ACTEZ. Return value 3.
Any clue ?
Regards,
Tommy

Dear Tommy,
it is not easy to say which could be the cause of your issue without having your projects ( ... pratically impossible).
You must provide more details ... otherwise, how can I be able to have a possible idea of what really happen?
