Display custom error instead of WiX default error for "MainEngineThread is returning 1624"

179 Views Asked by At

After silent installation of WiX MSI, it writes the default MSI error when the Instance or Transform is invalid. It's not even reaching to custom action method before that MSI fails.

MSI (s) (A0:D0) [00:48:39:793]: Machine policy value 'TransformsSecure' is 0 MSI (s) (A0:D0) [00:48:39:793]: User policy value 'TransformsAtSource' is 0 MSI (s) (A0:D0) [00:48:39:793]: Note: 1: 2203 2: Instance26 3: -2147287038 MSI (s) (A0:D0) [00:48:39:793]: **MainEngineThread is returning 1624**

How to throw a custom message instead of a default MSI error saying instance or transform is invalid?
