For some reason, when I make an msi build using WiX, sometimes the MSI that
comes out is missing custom actions in my InstallExecuteSequence. The custom
actions are correctly identified in the CustomActions table in Orca but in
the InstallExecuteSequence, they are not there. This doesn't happen to
not find a record for the dialog" so that
may mean there's reference that is still looking for it.

Hello,
I have an application that is wrapped in an MSI. It contains 1 service and 1
exectuable that is 'in use' during an upgrade.
On Windows XP, I do not get any notice/popup that the service and executable
is in use with any dialog to ask me if i want to ignore or shut it down.
On Windows 7,
I have a binary custom action exe. I am having a strange issue with running
this EXE during a very specific install sequence.
I have 3 MSI versions (say version 1,2, and 3).
1. I use GPO deployment for version 1. (works fine)
2. After it is successful, I do a manual install (double click on MSI

It looks like it is being spit from PrepareDlg. Not sure why it is showing
property values yet. Is it necessary to show this dialog?

When I double click on my MSI, right before the welcome dialog pops up, I get
a screen that shows some of the properties in my MSI and whether they are
TRUE or not. This screen shows really quickly (maybe .25 of a second) and
then moves on to the welcome dialog.
Any ideas what is causing this and
, check out the MsiLogging and MsiLogFileLocation properties.

I have a custom action that occurs right before InstallFinalize. Pressing
cancel and selecting 'yes' doesn't seem to cause a rollback. Is this a
timing issue since no rollbacks are allowed after InstallFinalize? The MSI

I have a filesearch action that checks for existence of a file and stores
this in a property. During the UI sequence, I have a dialog that pops up if
this file doesn't exist (it just checks the value of the property that was
set during the filesearch). However, if a user were to manually make thi
I changed a custom action from immediate to deferred and now the log shows
theres a return value of 3 from InstallFinalize. However, no other errors
before this. How can I debug this or what would cause this?? I am certain
the CA is in between installinitialize and installfinalize.

If I pass a property to my msi via command line, it seems like it is only
reflected in the current msi context but not when removeexistingproducts is
called to uninstall the old product. Is tehre any way to make this public

During an upgrade, what is the easiest way to patch the older msi? Can this
be done via the new msi or does a separate patch have to be issued and
installed?

I moved REP to After InstallFinalize and now it seems I can execute my
rollback action before Remove Files. However I need the REP to be After
InstallInitialize . Is there any way to make the rollback action work before
RemoveFiles while keeping REP After InstallInitialize?

REP is right after InstallInitialize. I can't put this Rollback action in the
older MSI. Here is the reason why. I am installing drivers using custom
actions. When installing the newer version as part of the upgrade, say
something goes wrong with the driver installation. At this point a rollback
