Hi!
I need to save install directory during major upgrade. To do this I
change
INSTALLFOLDER property using custom action.
Action="ChangeInstallFolder" Before="InstallInitialize"
MajorUpgrade Schedule="afterInstallInitialize"
Action="Install" Before="ProcessComponents"
But if I look at the log file:
Action start 4:30:53: ProcessComponents.
...
MSI (s) (FC:6C) [04:30:53:865]: Dir (source): Key: INSTALLFOLDER
,
Object:
C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{GUID}v{version}\ , LongSubPath: {DEFAULT
PATH}, ShortSubPath: ...\...\
So, property was changed, but directory still has default path.
Can I change install folder by custom action?
Regards, Alexey.
