I’m trying to recache one of a number of packages before RemoveExistingProducts. My custom action extracts the new package from the Binary table, then attempts to MsiOpenDatabase() to update the new package’s ProductCode and ProductVersion to avoid needing a new package for each instance we’re trying to recache.
I’m getting Leaked MSIHANDLE messages like the following MSI (s) (D4:84) [14:23:56:565]: Leaked MSIHANDLE (71) of type 790541 for thread 1380 And it appears that the custom action is terminating immediately at the MsiOpenDatabase() call site as no other custom action code appears to execute after. I read in https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370338.aspx that “Because MsiOpenDatabase initiates database access, it cannot be used with a running installation.” Does this mean that I cannot use MsiOpenDatabase() from a custom action and that I’ll need an external executable to run from my bundle instead of recaching in a custom action? -- Edwin G.
