Hi All,
I have created two cumulative patches (say patch1 and patch2 where patch2
supersedes patch1) with an additional custom action in patch2. I defined custom
actions in wix script file in following manner:
Patch1: Contains custom action that runs only on patch un-installation and code
in patch.wxs is as follows:
<Binary Id='Utility' SourceFile='C:\windows\system32\notepad.exe'/>
<CustomAction Id='Notepad1' BinaryKey='Utility' ExeCommand='' Impersonate='no'
Execute='deferred' PatchUninstall='yes'/>
And in InstallExecuteSequence specified in following manner:
<Custom Action="Notepad1" Before="InstallFinalize"></Custom>
Patch2: This is cumulative patch superseding patch1 and added one more custom
action in addition to above custom action as follows:
<CustomAction Id='Notepad2' BinaryKey='Utility' ExeCommand=''
Impersonate='no' Execute='deferred'/>
And in InstallExecuteSequence specified in following manner:
<Custom Action="Notepad2" Before="InstallFinalize">(REMOVE = "ALL")</Custom>
My issue here is un-installing patch2 from Add Remove Program throws an error
saying: "The patch package is not permitted by software restriction policy."
Also I observed logs and it shows that it failed at very beginning even before
running any of the custom actions.
Below is snippet from log file:
