I made sure all those files were deleted, rebuilt it and tried it again. I know the error it is mentionis is an 'invalid args' error, but I can't see anything wrong with the args I gave in the WXS file.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Certificate error Hello All, I am experiencing the same issue, same symptoms. I manually deleted the bin and obj folders and did a rebuild, but the result was the same. Rob, when you say "an old table definition that is getting in and being confused" what does that mean? How does one test for that? I opened the MSI in Orca, and I did not see anything that particularly stands out. I did see there was a thread ("Uninstall certificate error") indicating that bug fix was expected for the "next build." That bug was also one I was experiencing in v3.0.4415.0, which caused me to try v3.0.4513.0, which has lead me to my current state. Is the aforementioned "next build" v3.0.4513.0, or will it be a future weekly release? Thanks.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Certificate error Except you want to look at the hex number by the "Error". In this case: 0x80070057 = E_INVALIDARG. Can you be sure you recompiled all of your files. It is possible you have an old table definition that is getting in and being confused. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ryan O'Neill Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2008 04:21 To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.' Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Certificate error The error code 3 is a Win32 error for file not found. You can find win32 error codes online or in MSDN or at a dos prompt by typing 'net helpmsg 3' and it will give you the error text a lot of the time. I suggest using filemon (from MS) to see what file is being looked for and where.
