Re: [WiX-users] Sequencing issue with a major upgrade

[Dana Gutride]

Simon:

Try something like this:

<Custom Action="" After="RemoveFiles"><![CDATA[REMOVE="ALL" AND NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE]]></Custom>
 
The UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE property is set during the upgrade and available during the previous product removal.

Hi

 

Does anyone know how I can sequence a custom action so that it is run during an uninstall (before the files are removed) but not run as part of a major upgrade when I RemoveExistingProducts? I have the following source:

 

<CustomAction Id='AlreadyUpdated' Error='[ProductName] version [ProductVersion]is already installed.' />

                <CustomAction Id='NoDowngrade' Error='A later version of [ProductName] is already installed.' />
                <CustomAction Id='InstallPerfCounter' FileKey ='installservice.bat'
                        ExeCommand='&quot;[INSTALLDIR]Exchange\Enterprise Library\Caching\bin&quot;' Return='check'/>
                <CustomAction Id='UninstallPerfCounter' FileKey ='installservice.bat'
                        ExeCommand='&quot;/u&quot; &quot;[INSTALLDIR]Exchange\Enterprise Library\Caching\bin&quot;' Return='check'/>

               
                <InstallExecuteSequence>
                        <?if $(var.BuildType) != Dev ?>
                                <Custom Action='' After='FindRelatedProducts'>PATCHFOUND</Custom>
                                <Custom Action='' After='FindRelatedProducts'>NEWERFOUND</Custom>
                        <?endif?>
                        <RemoveExistingProducts After='InstallFinalize' />
                        <LaunchConditions After='AppSearch' />
                        <Custom Action="" After="InstallFinalize">NOT Installed</Custom>
                        <Custom Action="" Before="RemoveFiles">Installed</Custom>
                </InstallExecuteSequence>

Currently when I author and run a major upgrade, it runs the InstallPerfCounter custom action first and at the end runs the UninstallPerfCounter custom action so I end up with no perf counters installed.

 

Any help appreciated.
