Subject: [wix-users] Error code 2819

I received the following error when running an installer I have created:

The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2819.

Not the most helpful error message 😊

The error occurred when I changed the UIRef to ‘WixUI_InstallDir’. I have the INSTALLDIR defined as recommended. Any help would be appreciated.
