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?
