The crucial part of the log - the part which shows which Custom Action returned '3' - is missing. The entry for InstallFinalize shows that value because, in effect, it inherits it from the failing CA.

Use ProcMon as you install. I'm pretty confident it'll show you some ACCESS DENIED errors, most likely in the registry, because the account you're using has insufficient rights to write entries in the relevant keys.

You missed my point. It doesn't really matter about the log. You need to determine WHY whatever action is involved is failing and the only way to do THAT is to monitor it as it executes. For that, you need a process/file/registry monitor. Anything else is just guess-work.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
