Re: [WiX-users] How to set a condition, that prevents custom actions on error

[Derek Cicerone]

Could you please elaborate on how errors would be “handled” a bit more?  It’s possible (though tricky) to trigger some special behavior for certain error cases.   Thanks, Derek   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Arnson Sent: Monday, July 17, 2006 10:32 PM To: Markus Libiseller Cc: WiX-users Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to set a condition, that prevents custom actions on error   Markus Libiseller wrote: Thanks for your answer. I would like to set a property that prevents the start of my custom action in cases of installation failures, perhaps if the service could not be installed or anything. How can I set a property (let’s call it ‘installationError’) in the WIX-file that gets the value ‘true’ if any errors happened? I would like ‘handle’ this case in the custom action. Please keep wix-users on the list so everyone can participate. If an installation action fails, the whole install fails. There are exceptions for custom actions, where errors can be ignored -- and a few rare cases, such as marking services as non-vital -- but they don't record their errors. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org
