Installer Error Logs
Hello-
I am creating a windows installer and testing it on a windows 2003 server. For some reason the installer will not run. I get the following screens:
1. Extracting msi
2. Installation Complete, The wizard was interrupted before My Application could be completely installed.
The following event is in the Event Log:
My Application - Installation operation failed.
I removed all custom actions and made sure the application is not in Add/Remove Programs.
Is there anywhere else I can look for logs or does anyone have any other ideas to debug this issue?
UPDATE: To get logging enabled, enter the MsiLogging property to your Property Manager and set the value to e. Then when the Installer fails it will display a log file.
Thanks,
Drew

Hello,
Did you log your installation using the "/l*v" command-line?
