On wix_users: I posted that, we were thinking of changing of removing the MSINEWINSTANCE=1 from the property list on Uninstall in Wix Burn code.
We want to know : What steps should we follow in writing a Custom BA to address this issue with InstanceTransforms. After a week of looking at Transforms, Embedded transforms etc... we really do need to use Instance Transforms. They need to be installable, repairable, patchable and uninstallable. The actual post said this: We are thinking about modifying the MsiEngineComcatProperties() to allow optional handling of MSINEWINSTANCE=1 on Uninstall. Optional meaning - on uninstall we would exclude this from the parameters so that msiexec.exe will unistall the transform. We are using a Multi-Transform msi and need to use the MSINEWINSTANCE=1 on Install. However using WIX, we have not found any means to exclude the msiProperty MSINEWINSTANCE=1 from the Chain on uninstall. If the parameter MSINEWINSTANCE=1 is defined, msiexec.exe /x will fail. Rob stated: Short answer: this is something a custom BA could handle. Supporting instance transforms is a much bigger problem than just setting MSINEWINSTANCE. If you'd like to discuss how to add support for multiple instances to Burn, let's continue on wix-devs. Any suggestions would be appreciated. - Jon ----- - jon -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/We-are-thinking-about-modifying-the-MsiEngineComcatProperties-tp7584324.html Sent from the wix-devs mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
