Hi,
In my case the Guard service does not allow administrators to stop it, due
to the possible unpleasant side-effects of stopping it while managed
applications are running. That means the uninstall cannot stop it in the
normal way. Instead, we have a custom action which runs
"StopGuardForUninstall" which requests that the service stop itself using a
specialized signal.
Following is the custom actions for the same
<CustomAction Id="StopGuardService" Return="check" HideTarget="no"
Execute="deferred" Impersonate="yes" TerminalServerAware="no"
ExeCommand="StopGuardForUninstall" FileKey="xyz.exe">
</CustomAction>
<CustomAction Id="StartGuardIfSafe" Return="check" HideTarget="no"
Execute="immediate" Impersonate="yes" TerminalServerAware="no"
ExeCommand="StartGuardIfSafe" FileKey="xyz.exe">
</CustomAction>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="StopGuardService" Sequence="1569">Installed And
REMOVE="ALL"</Custom>
<Custom Action="StartGuardIfSafe" Sequence="5902">Not Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
But Still am facing same problem.
Can anyone give any pointer regarding how to solve this issue?
