Which user is running the installer - does that user have rights to the network location one or more files referenced by the installer live at?  
Example - share rights are set to a group but  the admin account executing the msi for the per-machine installation is not in the group

Hi Jacob,

I'm doing per machine install, none of my locations are redirected to a
network location.

Are any of your well known locations redirected to a network location? Ex:
APPDATA
Are you doing a per user or per machine install?

Hi,

I have a Wix Setup installer and it gives me the following error from the
log

MSI (c) (84:80) [14:19:24:181]: Note: 1: 1314 2:
MSI (c) (84:80) [14:19:24:181]: Note: 1: 1606 2:
Error 1606.Could not access network location  .
MSI (c) (84:80) [14:19:29:565]: Product: MyProduct -- Error 1606.Could not
access network location  .

Action ended 14:19:32: CostFinalize. Return value 3.
Action ended 14:19:32: INSTALL. Return value 3.

MSI (c) (84:F0) [14:19:32:750]: Custom Action Manager thread ending.

I don't find any other errors from the logs and this is not allowing the
installation further.

Can anyone help me find the cause for this error or to fix it.

Thanks,
James
