问题
We, at Microsoft, had been using WIX toolset version 3.5.2519.0 for so long to build the installer and patches for our product named (System Center Service Manager aka SCSM). Recently we need to update to WIX Toolset 3.14.0.1703 as this version has support for TLS1.2.
Building our project with WIX Toolset 3.14.0.1703 went fine, but while installing it, I am getting the below error:
Then I built the product one by one with all the WIX versions, and here are the results:
Product built with WIX ToolSet Version 3.8 and lower ar fine and installer worked fine.
But with ToolSet 3.9 and above, installer is getting failed with error: An error occurred while executing a custom action RegisterComPlus

Are there any changes taken in WIX Toolset 3.9 and above is breaking my installer? Any resolution for this?
Please let me know in case any more info is required on it.
Thanks, Rajeev

Hmm, no suggestions so far. This will not be an answer, but some suggestions to try to get you going helping yourself. This happens all too often for deployment questions since they are hard to debug or determine what is going on with the limited information available.
It looks to me like this might not be a COM+ problem since it looks like that custom action completes OK:
Action ended 21:11:37: RegisterComPlus. Return value 0.
Let's maybe try a few long-shots. Bear with me since a lot of this will be a bit out there. Torpedos. Full spread and all that :-) (run for cover):
Comparative Misery - :-): I might compare the working MSI and the new MSI using the compare approaches found here. I don't think you will find a lot, but should probably be done. Compare MSIs directly and decompile using dark.exe? The latter makes little logical sense, but I want to see if something has changed in how WiX links the MSI.
Eliminate Complexity: I like to take out complex parts and see if the rest of the setup installs OK. This can be a real waste of time, but sometimes illuminates.
I would take out that merge module that adds that custom action and verify that the rest of the package installs as expected. Sometimes this doesn't work if there is high coupling going on for the custom actions (obviously).
You can also set a condition for some custom actions to
0. This should prevent the custom action from running. You can addAND 0if there is an existing condition.
Disable Rollback?: Another long-shot. Disable MSI rollback and try a test install on a clean virtual? Just to see if problems are in the rollback custom actions. I would use the DISABLEROLLBACK property to disable rollback. Note that disabling rollback is no solution though! (has to be mentioned for others who find this).
Custom Action Source Access: If you have access to the custom action source code I would try to debug interactively using Visual Studio as described here: Debug C# Custom Actions. You compile the code in debug mode (so you have debug dll's in your MSI - be sure to not include those accidentally for public release!) and show a message box from the custom action, then you attach the Visual Studio debugger and step through the code. For native code attach to
msiexec.exe, for managed code attach torundll32.exe.
