Thanks a lot for the replies. The approach with two components is working
for me now. My mistake was to not define the conditions fully exclusive.
Thats why I got ICE30. Setting two different ShortNames manually was not
necessary.
Thanks again,

1603 = Fatal error during installation, which is largely meaningless.
You need to make an install log for more details.

You could add some logging to that.

A verbose log will tell you what happened about replacing that file. I suspect
you may not have incremented its file version.

I'm writing my first custom action using DTF from WiX 3.0.5419.0, and I'm
having an interesting issue: it appears that all of the MSI tables are not
accessible to my custom action. I'm using InstallShield 2010, and have set
up the custom action to run as an MSI custom action.
[CustomAction]
I'll assume a .NET setup is a Visual Studio Setup Project, but anyway there's
something missing in your description. You may have to be more precise about
what you did.
If you install an MSI file with a ProductCode, then that product guid is on the
system, that's the definition of a product.
Good idea but still not appearing in the build log.
Any more ideas out there?

Can you make a minimal *.wixproj that reproduces the problem?
