I have a situation where on install a file in my msi may be in use on upgrades. I have a custom action that will get rid of any lock on the file. however this custom action has to be run as a 64bit process which it does now.
so I need to run the custom 64bit exe file during install before copying the files to the destination directory.... 1. extract files 2. run custom action 3. copy files to dest dir is it possible to run the custom action exe before all the files are copied to the dest dir? (i.e. does the msi extract somewhere first where I could run it?) or I could have the msi copy files (even if one fails because in use), then run CA, the copy them again. any suggestions on how I could do this? Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
