So on an upgrade, I noticed that some important files were not installed. So I looked in the log and found these:
MSI (s) (7C:28) [12:04:18:128]: Component: Service_Component; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Null MSI (s) (7C:28) [12:04:18:128]: Component: Admin_Component; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Null And these are the two components that did not get installed on upgrade. The previous version was installed using InstallShield. Of course, this version is now using WiX/MSI. I found a couple of threads in this forum about using SharedDLLRefCount="yes" to circumvent this problem. My question is: Should I put SharedDLLRefCount="yes" on every component to prevent this problem in the future? What is the downside of this approach? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/SharedDllRefCount-on-Upgrade-tp5639450p5639450.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run across multiple browsers and platforms.
