I found a way by opening (via orca) my previous installer (made by Visual
Studio 2010 basic msi). All the custom actions are using component
conditions. I am not at all comfortable in this. So I am modified my
current installer with following CAs. Its working great.
<Custom Action="CA_SetBase_Install" Before="CA_Install">NOT
Installed</Custom>
<Custom Action="CA_Install" After="StartServices">NOT Installed AND
NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE</Custom>
<Custom Action="CA_SetBase_UnInstall"
Before="CA_UnInstall">Installed</Custom>
<Custom Action="CA_UnInstall"
After="MsiUnpublishAssemblies">Installed</Custom>
The CAs are working as desired. I want to ask about what is the diff
between this approach and with component approach?
Also If I want to use rollback custom action then how to use it? Should
Rollback be after StartServices and then Install CAs (coz this is how orca
showed me, first rollback followed by install CA)?
