I am trying to execute a validation function when user clicks on Next Button on InputParameters Dialogue. My all other custom actions work find which are included in InstallExecuteSequence. If I use a VBScript to display a popup using following customAction instead of above function ValidateParametersFunc then that works fine.
<CustomAction Id="ValidateEnrollmentParameters" Script="vbscript" Execute="immediate"> <!CDATA[msgbox "You clicked?"]]></CustomAction>
But I want to execute the function ValidateParametersFunc. I am getting error:
