Multiple Project MSI Installer not running after install

Question

I am working on a project with multiple projects in it and I need to add an msi installer. I have been using tutorials to setup a standard msi and an msi with custom actions so far. At the moment, I get my .msi file in the release folder but when I install it and then try to run it, nothing happens.

The one main project is set to the primary project output since that is where the executable is created. I've also tried to add the primary project output to the custom action to see if it would help but nothing new happened.

I do get the correct file structure in the program files but the program does not run. Any ideas??

Thanks Anna, that was a good hint. There was a new config file that was added to the project that was messing things up. After I deleted it and debugged it I found the culprit to be a bug in my fellow developer's code. After that was fixed I was able to create the msi and run the program after install. Thanks for your help.
