Hi all,
I have a problem with understanding a MSI feature/behavior.
Below is the setup structure.
* Feature A
* ComponentGroupRef containing:
Component A
Executable
Advertised shortcut to executable, with exe arguments including
a file from "Component 1"
Component B
Registry value containing the install folder for "Feature A"
* Feature B
Component 1
None of the features can be advertised.
I install "Feature A" in folder "F:\Folder1". By default, it would get
installed in "C:\Folder1".
"Feature B" is installed as by default in "C:\Folder2" - which contains the
file sent as argument to the advertised shortcut.
The registry value contains at this point "F:\Folder1\".
I manually delete "C:\Folder2".
Starting the exe from the advertised shortcut triggers MSI repair (at least
this is what I understood).
The problem is that after MSI finishes repairing my installation,
the registry value contains "C:\Folder1\"....
This looks to be the server side property value....
Why ? Can anybody point me in the right direction and make me understand my
mistake (I hope I made a mistake...) ?
Is it a problem in have an advertised shortcut when none of the features can be
advertised ?
Thanks and regards,
Adrian
