Hello Uwe,
Thanks for the info. This is my action script code:
*public class CustomActions
{
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult MySimpleAction(Session session)
{
try
{
File.AppendAllText(@"c:\tmp\time.txt", ";Installation: " +
DateTime.Now.ToString());
}
catch (Exception)
{
return ActionResult.Failure;
}
return ActionResult.Success;
}
}*The above custom script is creating a text file under tmp folder. It
works fine when tmp folder exists without error. But when I remove temp
folder to check the error message to display, setup is ending prematurely.
Following are my CustomAction and Install Sequence
* <CustomAction Id="myActionId"
BinaryKey="myAction"
DllEntry="MySimpleAction"
Execute="deferred"
Return="check" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="myActionId" After="InstallInitialize"></Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>*
Thanks & Regards,
