Just tried with WIX 3.6.1314. Same behavior.

Subject: [WiX-users] XmlConfig action not running on patch rollback?
I've got the following component:
<Component Id="machine.config.Update"
Guid="573DF5B0-438D-498d-8919-C4B96835C1EF">
<RegistryKey Root="HKLM" Key="[REGISTRYKEY]\Settings\[TITLE]"
Action="createAndRemoveOnUninstall">
<RegistryValue Action="write" Type="integer" Name="MACHINEMEMORYLIMIT"
Value="1" KeyPath="yes"/>
</RegistryKey>
<util:XmlConfig
Id="CacheNode.memoryLimit.add"
File="[WindowsFolder]\Microsoft.NET\[FRAMEWORKDIR]\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.Config"
Action="create"
ElementPath="/configuration/system.web/processModel"
Name="memoryLimit"
Node="value"
On="install"
Value="90" />
<util:XmlConfig
Id="CacheNode.memoryLimit.remove"
File="[WindowsFolder]\Microsoft.NET\[FRAMEWORKDIR]\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.Config"
Action="delete"
ElementPath="/configuration/system.web/processModel"
VerifyPath="/configuration/system.web/processModel"
Name="memoryLimit"
Node="value"
On="uninstall" />
</Component>
I want to add an attribute on install of the component and remove it on
uninstall. Now this works just fine when the component is part of a full
install and uninstall, but does not work as part of a patch. When I apply the
patch, the component will install, the config edit will occur and the registry
key will be added. When I roll back the patch, the registry key is removed, but
the attribute is not removed.
I checked the logs and the action isn't even attempted. To make sure the action
actually works I manually edited the config file and ran it on install. And it
does work then. Also FRAMEWORKDIR is getting set properly on both the install
and rollback steps. Is there a bug in the WIX utilities? Or is there something
I'm doing wrong?
