Hello,
I tried to execute the CA before the CostInitialize action but it wont be
executed (logfile / verbose). If I put the CA after CostInitialize it will
be executed and the property is set to 1, but the file wont be installed
and the service wont be started.
Is there anz other way? Can I divide the start of a service and the
installation of the .exe? In case that the condition will work someday the
next problem will appear:
If the condition is false the file wont be installed, but I want it to be
installed in both cases!
Thank you,
Chris

Per the MSI SDK doc: Any standard or custom actions <custom_actions.htm>
that affect costing should be sequenced before the CostInitialize action.
Check out a verbose install log to see the actions MSI is planning to
take with each component.

Hello,
I have following situation - I want to install an .exe and start it as a
service
<Component Id="SERV_Arcserv.exe"
Guid="{C28EA890-4649-4A33-801F-BD846B8E3A55}">
<File Id="SERV_Arcserv.exe" Name="Arcserv.exe" KeyPath="yes"
Source="Services\Arcserv.exe"/>
<ServiceInstall Id="ServInst_Arcserv" Name="ARCSERV"
Start="auto" Type="ownProcess" ErrorControl="normal"/>
<ServiceControl Id="ServCont_Arcserv" Name="ARCSERV"
Start="install" Remove="uninstall" Wait="yes" Stop="uninstall"/>
<Condition><![CDATA[(HASARCNET="1")]]></Condition>
</Component>
The default value of the Property HASARCNET is 0. With the help of a
Custom Action I set it to 1 if the arcnet driver is installed.
The Property is set to 1 as I see it in the log but the file wont be
installed and the service wont be started.
If I use a lower Sequencenumber for the CA, the CustomAction fails - I
see it in the log.
When should I execute the CA or is there another way to handle this
Thank you,
Chris
