I've defined the following MSIPackage in a chain (burn 3.6)
<!-- DacFramework x86-->
<MsiPackage
Id="msi_DacFramework"
SourceFile="..\..\External
References\MSI\Microsoft\SSDT\DacFramework\11.1.2825.1.May2013\x86\DACFramework.msi"
InstallCondition="(VersionNT64) OR (NOT VersionNT64)"
DownloadUrl="http://ourURL.com/updates/x86/DACFramework.msi";
Compressed="no"
Vital="yes"
Permanent="yes"
SuppressSignatureVerification="yes"
Visible="yes"/>
To my understanding, making it Vital and Permanent should mean it stays
installs on an upgrade to our product - the MSI in Question is a SQL Server
component that comes from Microsoft, so we're not going to be changing it.
The InstallCondition also should also return True.
As you can guess from the title however, it *IS* being uninstalled when our
product gets upgraded. From the log, it seems as if it is being asked to..
(REMOVE=ALL)
MSI (s) (D0:18) [17:03:04:781]: Command Line: MSIFASTINSTALL=7
REBOOT=ReallySuppress IGNOREDEPENDENCIES=ALL REMOVE=ALL
CURRENTDIRECTORY=C:\Program Files\CompanyName\Product CLIENTUILEVEL=3
CLIENTPROCESSID=4004
...
MSI (s) (D0:18) [17:03:04:781]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding REMOVE property.
Its value is 'ALL'.
What have I missed in the MSIPackage definition in order to think it's
being asked to REMOVE?
Thanks
