Hi all,
I have an installer which is dependent on the main product being installed
and its services in place, so that when it is installed / uninstalled it can
stop and start the services.
However if the main product is uninstalled and thus the services removed,
the installer cannot be uninstalled because the services are no longer
there, if the installer is being uninstalled with the product in place it
needs to stop and start the services as well. Is it possible for a
condition to be in place to only run the service control component if the
services are in place, I have been experimenting with conditions and using
Transitive="yes" but it always runs when trying to uninstall with the main
product uninstalled. I could write a custom action to do all this logic for
me but I would prefer if possible to stick to wix to do this.
Is there anything in wix that could help me with this?
<Component Id="Control_Service"
Guid="{GUID_HERE}"
Directory="INSTALLDIR">
<CreateFolder/>
<ServiceControl Id="Service"
Name="Service_Name"
Start="both"
Stop="both"
Wait="yes"/>
<Condition>PRODUCT_FOUND<>""</Condition>
</Component>
