Hi all,

I am trying to do an admin install of an MSI with a conditional feature and I 
need the feature to be installed regardless of the condition.  The condition is 
a property which I've tried setting on the command line, but the feature still 
isn't installed.  It appears that the condition is being ignored.  Is there a 
way with an admin install to force all features to be installed?  Any help 
would be much appreciated.

Here is the command I am running:
msiexec.exe /qn /a "myinstall.msi" TARGETDIR="C:\temp\msitest" MY_PROPERTY="#1" 
ADDLOCAL=ALL /lv*! install.log

Here is a line from my log file showing that request and action are null for 
this feature:
MSI (s) (04:64) [15:00:39:123]: Feature: FT.MyFeature; Installed: Absent;   
Request: Null;   Action: Null

Below is the authoring for my feature:
    <Feature Id="FT.MyFeature" Title="My Feature" Absent="allow" 
AllowAdvertise="no" Description="My Feature Description" Display="expand" 
Level="0" InstallDefault="local" TypicalDefault="install">
      <Condition Level="1">  <![CDATA[MY_PROPERTY = "#1"]]>  </Condition>
      <ComponentRef Id="CP.Some_Component" />
    </Feature>

Thanks!

Jeff
