Re: No logfile created for chained MSI
I have just run some tests just now and I was able to reproduce the same behavior as you. It looks like this is an issue on our side for which I already create a ticket with the maximum priority so it can be addressed as soon as possible.
Hello Catalin,
is there any ETA and targeted version ...

No logfile created for chained MSI
Hello,
I have a Main EXE package with 3 chained MSI packages. The last MSI in the chain should execute some custom actions of type "Launch file".
The Main EXE is deployed with parameters "/exenoui /qn" via SCCM.
Unfortunately the actions are often not executed. But not always. Sometimes it works ...

Re: How to uninstall MSI after all chained MSI are installed
Hello,
Unfortunately, uninstalling as a custom action no longer works. I have no idea at the moment.
I have defined the custom action "Launch EXE with working directory". As file = msiexec.exe and SystemFolder as working directory and as command line parameter "/x {product id}". This works when it ...

Re: How to uninstall MSI after all chained MSI are installed
Hello Catalin,
solved.
I have changed to Custom Action "Launch EXE with working directory" to run msiexec.exe instead of .BAT.
I also set the Execution Time parameter to "commit" and also Run with full privileges.
I don't know if both options are important but it works now. Thank you.

How to uninstall MSI after all chained MSI are installed
Hi,
I have an installer with 3 chained MSI packages. After all chained packages are installed an other software should be uninstalled (if present on computer). The software for uninstall is also MSI based. I have the MSI file too.
How can I handle this? Thank you.

Re: Multiple MSI's + EXE's instead of chained MSI's
Hi Dan,
thank you. I defined all sub packages as Feature-based and the installation runs fine now. But the problem is now on uninstall of main setup. I defined the uninstall command line for some Feature-based sub packages but these will not be uninstalled.
Kind regards,
Igor

Re: VBS on uninstall doesn't work
Mihai,
your suggestion will not help me. In case of uninstall the folder with this file will be deleted. I will copy this file to another location on the disk before removal. After re-install this file can be copied back to the profile folder.

Igor
