My feature tree is: <Feature Id="ProductFeature" Title="My Service" Level="1" AllowAdvertise="no" InstallDefault="local" Absent="disallow" ConfigurableDirectory="INSTALLLOCATION"> <!-- Note: The following ComponentGroupRef is required to pull in generated authoring from project references. --> <!--<ComponentGroupRef Id="Product.Generated" />--> <ComponentRef Id="ServiceWebsite" /> <ComponentRef Id="ServiceComponentContent" /> <ComponentRef Id="ServiceComponentBinaries" /> <ComponentRef Id="SqlServerProviderConfiguration" /> <Feature Id="Postgres" Title="Postgres Support" Level="1" AllowAdvertise="no" InstallDefault="local" Absent="allow"> <ComponentRef Id="PostgresComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="PostgresProviderConfiguration" /> </Feature> </Feature> The installer is intended to configure a web.config connection string for the first installation to assign a provider value depending on whether Sql Server or Postgres is used. My components for updating the web.config are: <Component Id="PostgresProviderConfiguration" Guid="{77187558-B8F1-45A7-A6E2-CA9430D349A1}" Directory="INSTALLLOCATION"> <CreateFolder /> <Condition><![CDATA[&Postgres = 3 AND NOT INSTALLED]]></Condition> <!-- Set Connection provider --> <util:XmlFile Id="SetConnectionProviderToPostgres" Action="setValue" File="[INSTALLLOCATION]\web.config" ElementPath="configuration/connectionStrings/add[...@name = 'MyService'[\]]/@providerName" Value="Npgsql" /> </Component> <Component Id="SqlServerProviderConfiguration" Guid="{C4E8F847-56F9-475F-A944-04BE2D928D46}" Directory="INSTALLLOCATION"> <CreateFolder /> <Condition><![CDATA[&Postgres = 2 AND NOT INSTALLED]]></Condition> <!-- Set Connection provider --> <util:XmlFile Id="SetConnectionProviderToSqlServer" Action="setValue" File="[INSTALLLOCATION]\web.config" ElementPath="configuration/connectionStrings/add[...@name = 'MyService'[\]]/@providerName" Value="System.Data.SqlClient" /> </Component> Neither of these components are run no matter which features are selected. I have removed the condition and also tested the condition with just NOT INSTALLED and both these scenarios cause the appropriate component to be actioned. I have also incorrectly spelled the feature name and compiled with an error to ensure that the correct feature name is being used. It seems like the &Postgres = 2/3 is not being evaluated correctly. Where am I going wrong?
