Re: File:// path for local network URL prerequisite
Here is an update to my last posting. It appears that file:// only works if you place the prerequisite run under the pre-install section. If I put under the feature-based or post-install packages that is when I receive that error. Do those sections not have access to the file system or what? Or am I ...

Re: Invoking a Rollback
How I do I know when to show that error message? "Error Message" is only enabled in the install finalize sequence. I don't know if my program has errored because I cannot check my return code of my application from AI? Let me ask you this, what does "Synchronous executing, check return code" mean? I ...

Re: Invoking a Rollback
I'm going to give a better explanation of what I'm trying to accomplish and maybe that will better help you help me.

Invoking a Rollback
Is it possible to invoke a rollback myself? I have a custom action exe (writting in vb.net) that I run that performs database maintenance (ie adding tables, columns, etc) on a database installed on the user's computer. This custom action will be used primarily during Uninstall/Reinstall operations ...

Re: Patch Family/Families
Ok that makes more sense. So what do you think the best way is to manage what patches need installing? If a person is on v1.0.0 and patches v1.0.1 and v1.0.2 have been released, the app would need to download and apply both patches. I thought that's what patch families were for but maybe not ...

Re: Patch Family/Families
I've double checked at least 3 times. I've started over that many times as well. I'm assuming that each time I change the Product Version from say 1.0.0 to 1.0.1, a new Package Code is supposed to be created correct? But the Product Code remains the same as long as I say "No" when prompted?
This ...

Re: Patch Family/Families
Mihai,
Thanks for the response. That makes sense. If I do use one patch as you described below with 2 families, then would I need to do anything with the patch sequences. I guess I'm still sorta confused where the patch sequences come into play. How do they fit into this scenario?
Thanks again ...

Re: Patch Family/Families
Would it be possible for you to show a print screen of what the "Images" and "Patch Sequences" tabs would look like if you were creating a patch like you described in your example. I'm having a hard time trying to create a patch with this scenario. I keep getting compile errors and I'm not sure what ...
