workaround : the setup must have at least 1 install condition.

so yeah, it is resolved to me, but strange.

I had a similiar problem using IS2008.

Found out from your workaround on Install Conditions that I had a 'rogue' condition in there.

It listed a PROPERTY there that I was going to use for a system search result.

During the defining of a new system search, I got as far as using " set property and use this in INSTALL CONDITION ". The Condition Builder came up, and this is when i decide no, lets use another solution. Cancelled this.

What seems to have happened in IS2008 is an Install Condition has already been added to the Install Conditions list in the General Information Section.

On top of this, the message that would prompt is an empty string.

Hence Everytime trying to launch an install under this property, a message box with nothing in it bar okay button would come up (displaying the empty message), and then the installer would move on to installation error.

Went on to delete the 'rogue' install condition and all is well again.
