I am struggling to get <util:CloseApplication> to work and wondered if
anyone else has got it working (I am using 3.0.4415.0). First, what I
would expect to see is a dialog offering to close my application if it
is still running - is this what it does?

 

I have added a line like this to my installation:

                <util:CloseApplication Id="MyApp" CloseMessage="yes"
Target="MyApp.exe" />

 

But it doesn't seem to do anything and I still get the normal "File in
use" dialog. Looking at the scheduling of WixCloseApplications it
appears to be happing after the file in use testing. 

 

I have found a posts that suggested adding this:

<InstallUISequence>

    <Custom Action="WixCloseApplications" Before="LaunchConditions" />

</InstallUISequence>

<InstallExecuteSequence>

    <Custom Action="WixCloseApplications" Before="LaunchConditions" />

</InstallExecuteSequence> 

 

But this gives the error in the install log:

                DEBUG: Error 2762:  Unable to schedule operation. The
action must be scheduled between InstallInitialize and InstallFinalize.

 

Anyone got any ideas?

 

Thanks

 

Neil
