Mihai,
Thank you for the response, however I am still unable to properly trap and execute my custom action in this scenario.
In my log file I see "Configuration failed" and then "MSI (s) (54:7C) [17:04:23:250]: MainEngineThread is returning 1638". How would I go about executing a custom action ...

Re: Temporary file missing when upgrading

Active Directory object picker
Has anyone or is it possible to implement an Active Directory object picker in an installer dialog? We need a user to be able to select a valid Active Directory user for the service being installed.
Thanks!

Re: Prevent custom action execution on upgrade install
That was a typo in my post. It is in the format you suggest in my project. However, my custom action continues to execute when I perform an upgrade. Is this the correct execution condition to accomplish what I am looking for? Is there something else I am missing that I should investigate?
Thanks ...
Thanks ...
