silent/passive mode does not work with regasm.exe

Hi,
if I start my setup.exe or the .msi in normal mode, the installation is successful.
At the end of the installation a custom action should start the creation of registry keys for my .dll.
Therefore I used the C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\RegAsm.exe with the option: /nologo /codebase "C:\...\my.dll".
If I use the normal mode with the dialog windows the registry keys are created.
If I use the silent/passive mode either setup.exe or msi, the installation is successful except from creating the registry keys.

Does anybody have an idea what I am doing wrong?

kind regards
Christopher

Hi,

Where is it sequenced after exactly?
If you are scheduling it after "After Setup Complete Success dialog", the custom action will be tied to the Finish button.
Since, silent install does not have this dialog, the custom action does not run.
