Hi, 

 

I have an xml file (e.g.: Sampleconfig.xml) that contains a number of key-value 
configuration data such as connection string. During installation time, there 
is a custom action that takes these data from the sample config file, and 
populate them as MSI properties.  E.g.: the custom action takes 
"connectionstringvalue" from "SampleConfig.xml" and put it in a msi property 
called "connectionstringxml" which is used by the wix custom action "xmlfile" 
to modify xml entry in  the target file  "web.config".

 

For the msi package, the wix xmlfile custom action run just fine. Now, I built 
a patch and in a verbose log I see that during the installation the 
"SchedXMLFile" custom action was called with return value 1.  However, I don't 
see new updates to my target "web.config" file.

 

My question is, what is return value 1 mean for the xmlfile wix custom action? 
Was it run or aborted? How can I get the xml replacement to work for the patch ?

 

Many thanks for your help.
