files installed but setup indicates opposite

I am running InstallShield Express 4.1 with an an
installation that appears to installing the necessary
(all) files to run for program or software. However, at
the end of installation when the Setup Completed dialog is
shown, the following is message is shown:

"The wizard was interrupted before [msi file name] could
be completely installed.

Your system has not been modified. To complete
installation at another time, please run setup again."

There are few custom actions that are included in the ise
file. Could the problem possibly stem from this? That is,
could a custom action operate as it should but a bad
return code, for example could cause the problem?


any help is appreciated.

Hello Stefan,

Yep, that did the trick. Thanks a bunch!

Yes, that's one possibility. Generate a verbose log file of the install to
see where and why it fails.
