Custom Action Not Firing
Hi,
I have an installer which ships the Microsoft Data Access Engine, installing it after the main install as a custom action.
On Windows XP 32-bit it executes the action correctly.
On Windows 7 64 -bit it again executes correctly.
On Windows 7 32-bit, it does not execute. No error message, just doesn't launch.
I am assuming it's something to do with 32-bit win 7 as this is the only commonality I can find.
My custom action is set to use the SUPPORTDIR as I want the setup exe binned after it installs, all operating systems are targetted and no other conditions are set.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jon.

A verbose log may help you troubleshoot the issue. KB article Q104807 explains how to create the log.
