Hi, I am using InstallShield 2011. I have a Standard dll custom action that I am calling in the deferred sequence. I am passing in a securecustomproperty as CustomActionData. The msi log file correctly displays the CustomActionData. But within the dll method, the property is blank.
Here is a log file snippet. Any ideas why the customActionData is correct, but the property is blank within the method? (The property should show up next to "(UNKNOWN) Log: Create IIS Web App - Parameter: " below)
(SERVER) MSI (s) (CC:F8) [15:55:12:668]: Executing op: ActionStart(Name=CREATEMANAGERAPP,,) (UNKNOWN) Action 15:55:12: CREATEMANAGERAPP. (SERVER) MSI (s) (CC:F8) [15:55:12:668]: Executing op: CustomActionSchedule(Action=CREATEMANAGERAPP,ActionType=3137,Source=BinaryData,Target=DLL2,CustomActionData=1|ArcGIS\|C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ArcGIS\|Manager|ArcGISApplicationsAppPool) (SERVER) MSI (s) (CC:44) [15:55:12:684]: Invoking remote custom action.

Registering user
Hi, Another thing I forgot to mention, if I change the custom action to an Execute immediate custom action (instead of Deferred, system context) then the customactiondata gets passed to the property correctly and everything works. I can confirm that the property is listed under Securecustomproperties.
