Hi,
Iam using the following function to write the error message into the WindowsInstaller log. But I couldn't trace out the correct error message in the windows installer log.
function BOOL LogMessage(hMSI, szMessage)
....
nNumberOfFields = 1;
hRecord = MsiCreateRecord(nNumberOfFields);
if (hRecord != 0) then
nFieldIndex = 0;
if (MsiRecordSetString(hRecord, nFieldIndex, szMessage) = ERROR_SUCCESS) then
nReturnValue = MsiProcessMessage(hMSI, INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO, hRecord);
if (nReturnValue = IDOK) then
bMessageLogged = TRUE;
end;
The Real scenario is, Im using some validation functions in my script. As the concerned function execution fails(just like invalid serial number) then the above mentioned LogMessage function invokes and the error result will displays in the windows installer log.
Can any body trace out my code and suggest me where I went I went wrong. or Is there any other way to generate

From the top of my head:
| CODE |
| hRecord = MsiCreateRecord(1); MsiRecordSetString(hRecord, 0, "[1]"); MsiRecordSetString(hRecord, 1, szMessage); MsiProcessMessage(hMSI, INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO, hRecord); MsiCloseHandle(hRecord); |
Note: include error handling on all statements.
