Make sure you are signing your bundle using the provided targets.  If unsure, 
post what you are using.

Subject: [WiX-users] Burn 'Unspecified Error' after signing bundle

I have a bundle which has three EXE and 1 MSI, all third-party, and then my MSI 
for a total of five packages.  This is my first bundle and it has been 
installing on a Win 8 x64 test system successfully.  I install and uninstall on 
this test box, rather than going back to a clean OS as I have WinDbg and VS 
also installed so that I can step into the code.

I had figured out the MSI localization some time ago, but reset the VS culture 
parameter to english, and removed the post build steps to embed the mst files 
and sign the msi, to save time in doing test builds as I developed the bundle.  
Now I am happy with the bundle so I added those msi localization and signing 
steps back into the build process, and I added signing to the bundle for the 
first time.

Now the setup always fails while trying to process the first EXE package (which 
is VC 2008 SP1), previously installed as permanent.  Even if I remove VC 2008 
SP1 the package fails with the same error "0x80004005 - Unspecified Error"

In WinDbg the failure happens at:
Wix37_source\src\burn\engine\core.cpp #1339 ::GetExitCodeThread(hCacheThread, 
(DWORD*)&hr) gets set to 0x80004005

Earlier a check for the cache path directory failed (as that GUID named dir 
does not exist) but then I failed the figure out what it is trying to do when 
it is failing.

As an experiment I rebuilt my bundle with all packages except the first one 
commented out, and it still fails on that first package.  I suspect the fact 
that it is marked as a 'permanent' package and the fact that I added bundle 
signing is a factor in this issue.  The bundle is not installed when these 
problems are happening.  Any thoughts on how I can get past this issue (or 
narrow it down)?
Phill
