Hello Prabhakaran,

Does the Vista run as x64? Then it's possible that MSI checks for the 32-bit
registry key (Wow6432Node) instead of the 64-bit. To do that set @Win64=yes
in the RegistrySearch element.

Best regards,

Subject: [WiX-users] Registry search condition problem

Hi,
    I am following a registry search condition. This condition is to check
if the SQL Server of version 9.00.4035.00 is installed at the time of
install/repair/change. 
    This works fine in windows XP Professional, i get this message when SQL
Server of version 9.00.4035.00 is not available during
install/repair/change. But this dont work for me in windows Vista Business i
have this version of SQL installed in my Vista machine and i dont get the
message while install/repair (as expected) but when i try to change i get
this message "SQL Server was uninstalled manually. Please run Setup.exe". 

<
<PropertyId='SQLREGISTRYSEARCH'>RegistrySearchId='MicrosoftSQL'Type='raw'Roo
t='HKLM'</
<
<![CDATA[Key='Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\SQLEXPRESS\MSSQLServer\CurrentVersion'Name='CurrentVersion'/>Property
>ConditionMessage="SQL Server was uninstalled manually. Please run
Setup.exe">SQLREGISTRYSEARCH ="9.00.4035.00"]]>OR REMOVE</
 
Any suggestions?
 
Thanks
