Hmm... could be. Is it possible that &MyAppFeature is not initialized yet because I'm running before "InstallValidate"? I have to run before InstallValidate, because I want to run before the Restart Manager pops up and asks to close the app for me.
What is the recommended way to debug such problems? Is there a tool that can trace through the install process?
