ALL,

I have found error in MSI log file. I am getting following error.

MSI (s) (A8:A8) [12:15:01:067]: Note: 1: 2262 2: Error 3: -2147287038
MSI (s) (A8:A8) [12:15:01:097]: Note: 1: 2262 2: Error 3: -2147287038

Please, help me and let me know. Why it is happenning.
 
The log file snippet isn't actually indicating an error. It's logged as a
"Note:". Normally if you have an error during the install, the MainEngineThread
will report a non-zero return (usually 1603) and you'll most likely find the
"Return value 3" text somewhere in the log.

In any case, you can easily translate the note that you have there using the
Windows Installer documentation on MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...si/setup/windows_installer_error_messages.asp.

2262 = Stream does not exist: [2]. System error: [3].

Then substitute the fields to create the full message. In this case, you have:

Stream does not exist: Error. System error -2147287038.

Translate the error code to hex and then look it up in winerror.h.

-2147287038 = 80030002

From winerror.h it's
//
// MessageId: STG_E_FILENOTFOUND
//
// MessageText:
//
// %1 could not be found.
//
#define STG_E_FILENOTFOUND _HRESULT_TYPEDEF_(0x80030002L)


All that log file notation is saying is that your package doesn't have an Error
table authored in it.
