While installing the message "Error trying access httpd.conf file. You will need to manually configure the web server.". In this stage none of the apache or php files are installed yet, the msi install script is being generated. Inside php's msi there is a custom action configApache that has type 6, and so is run immediately. I think it should be a "deferred" action, so that it gets run when the actual files are installed. When changing the type to 6 + 1024 ( = 1030) using Orca, error 1720 appears: There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Custom action configApache script error -2147467259, Msi API Error: TargetPath,Folder Line 11, Column 5, This is in the line of PHPInstallerScripts52.vbs where Session.TargetPath is accessed. Any ideas how to fix this? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47426&edit=1
