Thanks for the reply. Making a component 'Transitive' will make the condition get re-evaluated upon re-install but, nothing is happening during uninstall. During uninstall the component was still getting executed :-(. Now, I suppose we have fixed the issue. We have made that component 'Permanent' so that it is not executed during uninstall. We then created another component which has a 'RemoveFolder' element and that one runs upon uninstall. We have a custom action which removes any sharing before the folder is deleted. I know this is a very twisted approach, but, we were finding no other way to deal with this problem. Thanks. // Sudripta. -----Original Message----- From: "Phill Hogland" Sent: Friday, 28 February, 2014 12:13am To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Product removal fails as ConfiguresmbUninstall fails
I think (and I am not an expert) that the Component condition is only evaluated the first time it is installed, unless you also mark the component as Transitive. So if you add that Condition statement to the component, I think you want to also add Component/@Transitive="yes". -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Product-removal-fails-as-ConfiguresmbUninstall-fails-tp7592984p7592992.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
