Hello,
I'm having exactly the same problem as described in the email titled
"[Wix-user] Odd failure of XmlFile in wix-2.0.4221.0", but I don't see the
solution for that problem being posted. I have to post this question again, and
hope I'll get help from somebody.
The installation failed at the ExecXmlFil custom action. In the install log I
do see a second process (PID 1448) trying to open the database.xml file and
failed. What I don't understand is why there is a second process? How to
resolve this problem? This problem happened only on one of our customers'
machine. It never occurred on the machines we did test on.
The related install log is attached.
Thanks,
Li

Subject: How to update an url shortcut for upgrade install?
Hello,
I have the following code to create an URL shortcut on Desktop:
<IniFile Id="launchFromDesktop" Action= "addLine" Directory="DesktopFolder"
Name="MyHome.url" Key="URL" Section="InternetShortcut"
Value="http://localhost:[HTTP_PORT]"/>
This works well for a new install. But when I do an upgrade install(major
upgrade), the URL keeps using the old port. For example, the first time install
8080 was entered as the http port. Perform upgrade install, and enter 6060 as
the http port. The registry and configuration file are all updated correctly,
but the shortcut was still "http://localhost:8080 <http://localhost:8080/> ".
The following is related section from the install log file. From there I don't
see how the old port gets used again.

MSI (s) (68:D4) [16:25:05:184]: Executing op:
ActionStart(Name=InstallServices,Description=Installing new

I'm really appreciated if somebody can point me out what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks.
Li
