New standard dll located in search path

Did anybody used this Custom Action before?
(New standard dll located in search path)

I am searching for a dll on the target computer, using SystemSearch:
AppSearch Action found:
[MYFILEEXISTS]='c:\mydll.dll'

Then, I used a Custom Action to access that dll:
Dll Filename = mydll.dll
Function Signature = void mydll::MyFunc()

At install time, I get a message, that mydll.dll is not found.

Do you have any clues of how this CA's are working?

Thanks

This issue is typically caused by missing dependencies required to successfully load the custom action DLL. The Windows LoadLibrary API reports a generic "file not found" error and therefore this is the error displayed by the standard DLL wrapper.

Information on troubleshooting this issue can be found in the following article:
