Custom Action Return Code

[Bruno_D_Amico]

I created a custom action (called Permissions) in my package which modifies the ACL on the installation directory of the application.

I logged the installation of the package and found the following:

MSI (s) (D8:EC) [10:59:30:172]: Doing action: Permissions
Action 10:59:30: Permissions.
Action start 10:59:30: Permissions.
Permissions:
Action ended 10:59:30: Permissions. Return value 1.
MSI (s) (D8:EC) [10:59:30:189]: Doing action: InstallFinalize

Can someone please explain to me what the Return Value of 1 represents?

thank you

BD

it means that it worked. Logically you have 0 or 1. normally, 0 means failure and 1 means success.
