Thanks. We had an additional feature, that seemed to have confused the
installer. Seems to be some side effect. With the same feature set it
works.

Don't set REPAIR when applying the patch?

The default action when a patch is applied is to apply as few features
as possible based on the changed components. The only way a previously
not-installed feature is automatically added is when it and all of its
components are added by the patch.

A verbose log should tell you why you are getting features set to
install when you apply the patch.

Subject: [WiX-users] MigrateFeatures with patch

Hi,

 

I'm following http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/patch_building.htm
to create a patch, but while testing the patch I discovered, that it
didn't remember the feature settings from the original installation. I
found that there is a way via MigrateFeatures on UpgradeVersion, but
this seems to be the other patch process
(http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_patching.htm). Is there a
way to achieve my goal with the first approach?

Thanks,

  Christoph
