I changed my code to schedule my CA after FindRelatedProducts and to execute it immediate but got error: “Could not find the file ‘C:\Program Files\Producer\Product\MyCAdllname.InstallState’”
Is there any example of how to schedule C#(to read XML easy) CA outside InstallInitialize and InstallFinalize? <CustomAction Id="SaveConfig" Return="check" Execute="immediate" BinaryKey="InstallUtil" DllEntry="ManagedInstall" /> <CustomAction Id="SaveConfigSetProperty" Return="check" Property="SaveConfig" Value='/installtype=notransaction /action=install "[#MyCustomInstall.dll]" "[#ConfigFile]"' /> <InstallExecuteSequence> <Custom Action="SaveConfigSetProperty" After="FindRelatedProducts">$C_MyCustomInstall.dll>2</Custom> <Custom Action="SaveConfig" After="SaveConfigSetProperty">$C_MyCustomInstall.dll>2></Custom> </InstallExecuteSequence> Thanks, Yuri --- On Sat, 1/10/09, Rob Mensching <rob.mensch...@microsoft.com> wrote: > From: Rob Mensching <rob.mensch...@microsoft.com> > Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Save configuration data during upgrade. > To: "yun...@yahoo.com" <yun...@yahoo.com>, "General discussion for Windows > Installer XML toolset." <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > Date: Saturday, January 10, 2009, 12:22 AM > You can't schedule deferred (aka: in-script) > CustomActions outside of the InstallExecuteSequence script > execution phase. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Yuri N.
