Your CA isn't running because although you've defined the custom action within
Product.wxs you haven't scheduled it for execution (you have no sequences
defined which would invoke your CA).
For example...
.
.
.
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="TestManagedAction" After="LaunchConditions">1</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
</Product>
</Wix>

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] CustomAction following specific CustomAction fails
Can I do anything to find out what is happening in this install project. I
guess the OpenDialog customaction seems okay, with the change Rob suggested.
Yan, you had a good suggestion but it doesn't seems like the managed action
is actually invoked.
My guess is that it is related to the action invoking the managed action (is
it the part called DTF?) but I do not have a clear understanding of what is
going on.
Does it make sense to try some kind of weekly build pr anything?
Can I do anything to find out, ask anyone or can I do anything?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Jesper
