I guess this is only a part of the install log. Are you sure that there
is not something that failed before?
As for error 1603, here's what I found:
http://support.installshield.com/kb/view.asp?articleid=Q107182

<quote>
This error message is displayed by the Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI)
engine and is a generic error code that indicates a problem occurred
during the installation. The following is a non-exhaustive list of known
causes for this error:
     * Short file name creation is disabled on the target machine.
     * An InstallScript custom action is prototyped incorrectly.
     * A file is locked and cannot be overwritten.
     * The Microsoft Windows Installer service is not installed correctly.
     * The Windows Temp folders are full.
