<Property Id="MYSERVER">  
  <RegistrySearch Id="MyServer" Root="HKLM" Key="SOFTWARE\My Technologies\MyServer" Type="raw" Name="InstallLocation" />  
</Property> 

<CustomAction Id='LaunchMyServer'   BinaryKey="MyServer.exe" ExeCommand="" /> 

<InstallUISequence>


<Custom Action="LaunchMyServer" Before="CostInitialize">MYSERVER>0 </Custom>
</InstallUISequence>

Answer 1

You are using the > character in the content. It should be html escaped to >

So try MYSERVER>0 instead.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

You have used >, so you have to use a CDATA-block:

<Custom Action="LaunchMyServer" Before="CostInitialize"><![CDATA[MYSERVER>0]]> </Custom>
