I had some similar problem <http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/RollbackBoundry-Can-t-Upgrade-or-uninstall-bundle-td7598888.html> a few weeks back, and while Bob's suggestions were helpful, I set aside that problem to work on some other fires, and did not return to complete the analysis. What did get me past the problem, for the moment was to comment out all of my uses of <RollbackBoundry />
I believe what was going on was that my bundle chain had several PackageGroupRefs to ExEPackages which were marked as permanent. Then I had a RollbackBoundry. Then I had various MSIs. So I think my scenario was that the MSI after the RollbackBoundry had a problem. So when I deployed the new bundle (with all packages and the bundle built with new versions and product codes), the new bundle caused the old bundle to uninstall. But the uninstall exits with success as it seems to think that nothing is installed, because all msi packages were previously uninstalled on rollback. The bundle never uninstalls due to the permanent packages still in the chain prior to the RollbackBoundry. Again, this is theory, and unproven at this point. After removing all of the RollbackBoundary authoring, and start testing on a clean VM, I did not duplicate the problem again. I have not had a chance to get back and focus on this specific issue. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Upgrade-issue-tp7599324p7599327.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
