I have used Setup Factory since version 6, but am new to MSI Factory. I am trying to build my first MSI project; all it has is a few MSM modules and an executable file, which I am trying to run upon exiting the installation. When building the project I receive an error:
error CNDL0006 : The ConfigurationData/@Value attribute's value cannot be an empty string. If you want the value to be null or empty, simply remove the entire attribute.
Error 4001: candle.exe returned 6

I am not sure what this error means and what to do to fix it. Please help.

Thank you
Yelena

I assume you are using a Custom Action -> Run Executable to run the app. Take a look at this post that runs your app by pushing a button. The concept should be similar:

Thank you for quick reply.

I found the problem; one of the modules I was installing requires a key to be entered in the "Configuration Variables" section of the "Merge Module properties".

Thanks again.
