I am trying to execute the custom action which was also in the previous msi and was working fine. In the upgraded msi when i runs it throws the following error:
*Error 1001. The installation failed, and the rollback has been performed. --> Could not find a part of the path 'C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_MSIL\x\1.0.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\x.InstallState'. * does anybody have the idea on this? I will appreciate the help on this.
