[wix-users] Restart from MBA

My MBA appears to uninstall successfully but if I subsequently re-install (without a manual reboot) the install fails. The log file includes:

  Apply complete, result: 0x8007015e, restart: Required, ba requested restart:  No

I presume that indicates the uninstall should have requested/triggered a restart? I had assumed (hoped) restart would be handled by the Burn engine but either that's not the case or (more likely) I'm am doing something (or not doing something) in my MBA which is screwing it up.

I have looked at the WiX sources but haven't managed to figure out how I should be handling restart. Does anyone know of samples or pointers for what I should be doing? Or suggestions where to start looking for what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks
Kev
