I have an install file that includes DPinst to install some drivers that works perfectly well under Windows XP. When I use the same installer on Vista, it installs everything in the right places but does not run DPinst. If I run it, manually, after the installation, it works as expected.
I have signed drivers, MSI and EXE files (both the installer and DPinst.exe just in case), but that doesn't seem to matter. Any other thoughts as to why this won't run?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,
Use "Deferred with no impersonation" execution option for the custom action. Let me know if this solves the problem.

Hi Dave,
Deferred - the Custom Action will be executed in order as part of the script built out of all the non-immediate actions.
Impersonation - run the Custom Action as the user installing the application, not under the local System account.
"Deferred with no impersonation" is a combination between "Deferred" and "Impersonation" flags. This option means that the custom action is executed at scheduled point within script. Executes with no user impersonation. Runs in system context.

I have an installation that has no problems on most machines. However, when I try to install on one particular machine, none of my custom actions are being run during installation on that machine.
There doesn't seem to be anything different about that machine. I also tried changing the type of my custom actions from 1025 to 3073 (defferred with no impersonation), but that did not seem to work.
Does anyone have any insights?

Hi,
What OS and Windows Installer version are installed on that machine? Maybe there is a problem with the Windows Installer version on that machine. Try to reinstall it and tell us if the problem persist.
