Hello, I am currently using the Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller to check some components for an install that I have done. However I have noticed that a lot of my components are coming up with the InstallState.Absent state. They are mostly images, aspx, and css files, but since they show up as absent I can't get the path on disk for them. Below is my test code that I am using to and for the absent components I hit the FileNotFoundException , but the installer did install them. Is there anyway I can get the path to disk for these files or did I do something wrong in the wix to make them show up as absent? Also none of these components have the MultiInstance = yes and this install does support multi instance, but the product code I am testing with is for instance 0.
public static IEnumerable<ComponentInstallation> GetComponentsForProduct(string productCode) { return ComponentInstallation.AllComponents.Where(c => c.ClientProducts.Any(p => p.ProductCode.Equals(productCode))); } foreach (var componentInstallation in GetComponentsForProduct(productCode)) { try { Console.WriteLine("File: {0}, Version: {1} State: {2}", componentInstallation.Path, Installer.GetFileVersion(componentInstallation.Path), componentInstallation.State); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { Console.WriteLine("Component: {0}, State{1}", componentInstallation.ComponentCode, componentInstallation.State); } catch (ArgumentException) { Console.WriteLine("Component: {0}, State: {1}", componentInstallation.ComponentCode, componentInstallation.State); } } Below is a section of the Wix Code for one of the components that shows up as absent. <Component Id="css02_extallnotheme.css.component"> <File Source="net\exampleuseradmin\exampleuseradmin\app_themes\avantgarde\css\02_ext-all-notheme.css" /> </Component> <Component Id="css03_dctExtJsExtensions.css.component"> <File Source="net\exampleuseradmin\exampleuseradmin\app_themes\avantgarde\css\03_dctExtJsExtensions.css" /> </Component> <Component Id="css04_dctExtJsOverrides.css.component"> <File Source="net\exampleuseradmin\exampleuseradmin\app_themes\avantgarde\css\04_dctExtJsOverrides.css" /> </Component> <Component Id="css05_extxthemegray.css.component"> <File Source="net\exampleuseradmin\exampleuseradmin\app_themes\avantgarde\css\05_ext-xtheme-gray.css" /> </Component> Tyler Reid | Operations and Infrastructure | Accenture Software | P&C Insurance 1807 Jones Street | Bolivar, MO 65613| USA Office: +cc.xxx.xxx.xxxx | Fax: 417.777.3792 E-Mail: tyler.w.r...@accenture.com<mailto:tyler.w.r...@accenture.com> | www.accenture.com/pcsoftware<http://www.accenture.com/pcsoftware> ________________________________ This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged, proprietary, or otherwise private information.
