/uninstall | /package 'The 'After' column for the 'EngineStartup.4F635B62_07BF_4779_B74E_D80C29D508E3' CustomAction defines 'Action to come before BaseAction' (0) defined by the 'BaseAction' column which in this case is 'ISMsiServerStartup'. When the merge module has been merged into the msi the EngineStartup action will be inserted right before the ISMsiServerStartup action making sure to installer the required ISScript support before the ISMsiServerStartup action establishes the connection between the InstallScript engine and the Windows Installer engine. Just make sure the ISMsiServerStartup action has the same sequence order in the msm as in the msi. ' I'll give the suggestions made in that thread a shot.
