Re: [WiX-users] Error 1721 - How to resolve
Without seeing your code I can't be sure of this, but many custom
actions are woefully short of error checking. Calling APIs and not
checking the result is unfortunately common, so you need to check these
things.
You can log errors into the MSI log with something like this in your
custom action:
UINT LogMessage (MSIHANDLE hInstall, LPCTSTR msg)
{
PMSIHANDLE rec = MsiCreateRecord (1);
MsiRecordSetString (rec, 0, msg);
MsiProcessMessage (hInstall,
INSTALLMESSAGE(INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO), rec);
return ERROR_SUCCESS;
}
