I am trying to use my first custom action in WiX and I get: error 2896: Executing action CustomActionTest failed. I am using Visual Studio 2010, WiX 3.5, 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate, .NET Framework 4. Here are what I think are the relevant sections: <Binary Id="JudgeEditionCA" SourceFile="..\JudgeEditionCA\bin\Debug\JudgeEdition.CA.dll" /> <CustomAction Id="CustomActionTest" BinaryKey="JudgeEditionCA" DllEntry="CustomActionOne" Execute="immediate"/> <Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="248" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17" Default="yes" Text="!(loc.WixUINext)" > <Publish Event="DoAction" Value="CustomActionTest">1</Publish> <Publish Event="DoAction" Value="InvalidClientDesc">CLIENT_DESC_VALID = "0"</Publish> <Publish Event="NewDialog" Value="VerifyReadyDlg">CLIENT_DESC_VALID = "1"</Publish> </Control> From the action: namespace JudgeEditionCA { public class CustomActions { [CustomAction] public static ActionResult CustomActionOne( Session session ) { return ActionResult.Success; } } } And the configuration file from the custom action: <configuration> <startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="false"> <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" /> </startup> </configuration> And finally I have used a project reference in my WiX project to the custom action. I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
