I am getting a

"The Installation Did Not Complete"

message. There is no information about what was the issue.

Essentially nothing was changed in the script.

How can I find out what causes SetupBuilder to display this message ?

You might look to see whether there's an installation log in the folder to
which you were installing that could give an indication.

Or try starting the installer with the /E command-line switch to enable
event logging and see if that gives some hint.

Thank you Jane.

I enabled logging, found the file and found this line

|04/06/2011|19:18:27:687|@FATALERR (4:9:Script aborted. Normal program termination)


Only trouble is that it gives no indication of what the problem is.

Perhaps "4:9:" is meaningful?

It appears that using an "Exit Installation" after the finish dialog was causing the problem.

All OK now...but doesn't make sense.

I checked this and a "Exit Installation" after the Finish dialog does not
trigger this here. Can you send a small project that demonstrates this
behavior?

IMO, you have the "Cancel Wizard" option enabled in the "Exit Installation"
script function. If you do this in a "Wizard Loop" then it "cancels" the
installation and displays the "This wizard was interruped" message.
