1. RegistrySearch. I am trying to do a registry search and it is not
working.
<Property Id="USERINSTANCENAME">
<RegistrySearch Id="InstanceNameSearch" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\[ProductCode]"
Name="InstanceName" Type="raw" />
</Property>
Now I thought it was just this simple, but the property is not being
set. Here is part of the log. (If you need more of the log, let me know).
I have gone into the registry and manually verified that the registry
value is set. This log comes from doing a repair after installing.
AppSearch: Property: USERINSTANCENAME, Signature: InstanceNameSearch
MSI (c) (04:D8) [12:14:45:067]: Note: 1: 2262 2: Signature 3: -2147287038
MSI (c) (04:D8) [12:14:45:067]: Note: 1: 1402 2:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\{A53A5F7C-7AF1-4854-9B4F-01A6C77CC4AB}
3: 2
Action ended 12:14:45: AppSearch. Return value 1.
2. Multi-Instance. I have a boot strapper that is using
Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller (or DTF) and when it builds, a dll and
an xml file are created.
The problem is that I now have an msi, dll, and xml file that I cannot
figure out how to package into a single exe. Does anyone have a suggestion
on how
this could be handled.
3. Multi-Instance. I am having a problem doing major upgrades. I ran into
the problem of all instances being uninstalled instead of just the specified
instance. I learned each instance needs to be part of its own
upgradecode family, so now each instance transform has its own upgradcode.
The problem
is that I can't figure out now how to search for the specific upgradcode
code and mark it for uninstallation. I was trying to use the 'Upgrade'
element,
but it doesn't allow for a condition, which is the only way I see it
working. What have other people done to make multi-instance major upgrades
work?
Thanks
