ScheduleReboot action

Prasanna <csoprasanna-nos...@hotmail.com>

I am trying to schedule a reboot if certain actions were done as part of my
custom action. I have a CA1 that runs in a deferred mode. This CA1 sets a
registry key to indicate whether a reboot is necessary following the
installation. I need to have another CA2 run after my CA1. CA2 checks for
the registry key and must call ScheduleReboot action.

I run CA2 on a deferred mode. I just call
Session.DoAction("ScheduleReboot"). However my installation is giving an
error whenever it hits this CA2.

CustomActionSchedule(Action=aaa,ActionType=1062,Source=Session.DoAction
"ScheduleReboot"

I have CA1 scheduled to run after StartServices action. I have CA2 schduled
to run after CA1.

Am I doing something wrong?
