wix - Abort Merge Module installation -
i have .msi transformed .msm , became component of larger .msi.
i have custom action aborts installation @ downgrade.
<custom action="abortdowngrade" after="installchecks">installed_buildno > installing_buildno</custom> defined as:
<customaction id="abortdowngrade" error="downgrade not allowed"/> the custom action type 19 , causes entire .msi abort.
how can update .msm fails gracefully without affecting .msi?
thanks!
after msm merged , built msi there msi, there no install of merge module. merge module bunch of components installed msi. can't fail of components beingness installed.
so it's hard give direct reply because can't fail part of msi. if custom action isn't needed, delete it. seems apply downgrades, applies msi, , it's unusual have msi bundle restrictions in 1 of merge modules going it. or if applies in conditions apply status custom action.
the best way disallow installing collection of components set them in feature , have status on feature, this:
how utilize conditions in features in wix?
otherwise reference build numbers in status implies might thinking don't install files if version of them installed. if so, not usual approach. file versions determine whether files replaced or not, if install lower versioned files not replace existing ones.
