Two (sets of) questions: 1. Does your PatchFamily have any children or is it empty? If it has children, what are they?
2. Please look in your .wixmst file for the <table name="PublishComponent"> element and look for the row where the category is modified. Do you see the new value in a field of that row? Do you see the old value in the previousData attribute of the field? And do you see an attribute named "op" with a value of "modify" in that row? Just trying to isolate if the change didn't get picked up by torch or if it was being ignored by pyro. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Perrigo [mailto:jeff.perr...@microsoft.com] Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 6:08 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Category not updated with patch Hi all, I have a component that contains both a category and a file. This is a new component that didn't exist in the old MSI. I've added this component to my patch, and the file is getting updated correctly but the category isn't touched. I used Orca and applied my msp to the original MSI and verified that the "PublishComponent" table does not get modified with the new category. How can I patch a category with an msp? I understand that if I do this my MSP can't be uninstallable. Thanks in advance for any help.
