Software Deployment

Hi,

I can't figure out what this means, googled it and the few solutions I found that worked for others where already in place.

Problem is that this vendor MSI (we install as is, no MST) doesn't install correctly the first time. Doing a repair afterwards fixes it most of the time, sometimes two repairs are required. Also sometimes it installs fine the first time.

The difference in the log file when it doesn't install correctly compared to a log file where it does are these extra lines.

MSI (s) (84:28) [14:15:08:646]: Entering MsiProvideComponentFromDescriptor. Descriptor: nnPl(}XP9?_,O3?,aFS^>M5KDYSUnf(HA*L[xeX)y, PathBuf: 244F340, pcchPathBuf: 244F33C, pcchArgsOffset: 244F294

All custom actions return a value of 0 or 1 and the exit code is also 0. 

Thanks for your help.
