I have a burn 3.6 installation with a number of packages in the chain. One
of the MSIPackages I want installed no matter what other msi packages are
each time, and therefore have forced the InstallCondition to "1"....
<MsiPackage
Id="msi_SharedComponents"
SourceFile="..\..\External
References\MSI\6.0\6.0.164.0\SetupSharedComponents.msi"
InstallCondition="1" DownloadUrl="http://oururl.
../setupsharedcomponents.msi"
DisplayName="Shared Components"
Compressed="no"
Vital="yes" />
As you may have guessed by the post title, during an upgrade the package is
uninstalled but not reinstalled during a quiet / passive upgrade.
I've obviously made a wrong assumption somewhere about forcing the
InstallCondition. Any help would be appreciated.
What follows is just to state what's happening in the logs if it helps...
In the install log, after "Apply begin" this package isn't listed as a
verified acquired payload like the other packages, such as...
[0A24:0DBC][2013-04-23T11:04:51]: Verified acquired payload: msi_Sales at
path: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Package
Cache\.unverified\msi_Sales, moving to: C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\Package
Cache\{42B9B03B-15C3-48D0-B605-F574B1374160}v6.0.166.0\SetupSales.msi.
... and then afterwards there is no "Applying execute package"... so it's
not that it tried to re-install the package and failed - it doesn't want to
know about the package
>From the planning stage..
Planned package: msi_SharedComponents, state: Present, default requested:
Present, ba requested: Present, execute: None, rollback: None, cache: No,
uncache: No, dependency: Register
Planned package: msi_Reports, state: Absent, default requested: Present, ba
requested: Present, execute: Install, rollback: Uninstall, cache: Yes,
uncache: No, dependency: Register
Planned package: msi_Sales, state: Absent, default requested: Present, ba
requested: Present, execute: Install, rollback: Uninstall, cache: Yes,
uncache: No, dependency: Register
reports and sales re-install fine. SharedComponents doesn't. I assume that
"execute: None" vs. "execute: Install" in the other packages is key...
