Hi!
I'm trying to get a Custom Action to be executed before the installer
creates/checks any direcorys. I want to remove some files and the location
of them are depending on a value that is retrieved by my Custom action
"GettingXmlValue" and thevalue is put into the property "PACKAGE_NAME".
Below are som extracs from my Wix file. If I run the resulting msi package I
get an error saying:
Could not access network connection "A package name"
"A package name" is the default value of the property PACKAGE_NAME so this
indicates that I'm using the property before the "GettingXmlValue" action
has been executed. I use the PACKAGE_NAME property in other places in my WIX
definition and there it has the value that has been set by the Custom Action
(so the Custom Action works).
/Hans
<Property Id="PACKAGE_NAME">"A package name"</Property>
....
<CustomAction Id="GettingXmlValue" BinaryKey="GetXmlValue"
DllEntry="GetXmlValue" />
...
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="GettingXmlValue" Before="AppSearch"> NOT
Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
...
<Directory Id="Directory11" Name="Geodata">
<Directory Id="Directory12" Name="index">
<Directory Id="PACKAGE_NAME">
<Component Guid="e4e283ab-ec9e-400b-b216-7a872cad96f2"
Id="Component5">
<RemoveFile Id="File6" Name="MyCategory*.ind" On="install" />
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
Ps Can anybody point me to a description of the sequencing variables (and
maby the order of the sequencing when a MSI is executed)? Ds
