I am having a problem with a custom action in my Wix installer, on a Clean Install of Windows 8.1.
The machine has .NET Framework version 4.5 installed. My custom action dll targets Framework 4.0 and works on a Windows 7 machine ( though this also has the 2.0 Framework installed ). The config for the Custom Action However when running the generated MSI on the Windows 8.1 machine with logging enabled I get the following errors in the log file for the custom action: Action 10:19:46: GetOfficeVersions. Action start 10:19:46: GetOfficeVersions. SFXCA: Extracting custom action to temporary directory: C:\Users\DEVELO~1\AppData\Local\Temp\MSI8D00.tmp-\ SFXCA: Failed to get requested CLR info. Error code 0x80131700 SFXCA: Ensure that the proper version of the .NET Framework is installed, or that there is a matching supportedRuntime element in CustomAction.config. If you are binding to .NET 4 or greater add useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true to the <startup> element. CustomAction GetOfficeVersions returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox) Action ended 10:19:46: GetOfficeVersions. Return value 3. Action 10:19:46: FatalError. Action start 10:19:46: FatalError. Action 10:19:46: FatalError. Dialog created Now I have the correct useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy set in the config file, but being a version 4.0 assembly it should work with 4.5 anyway. Any suggestions would be appreciated ?
