Conditions on Features and Uninstall strange behavior
Hi, I have a Basic MSI project which has three different properties.
Each feature has a special condition so that if the feature has been disable through a property:
When I run the Setup in Silent mode, for example, I can run it in the following way:
and the feature Client is not installed.
The problem is that when I try to uninstall this specific installation, the uninstall process removes the Database and Server features and install the Client feature ...
So, how can I say to the feature condition that during uninstall it shouldn't care about the property value and simply uninstall everything?
Thanks
ENABLE_CLIENT
ENABLE_SERVER
ENABLE_DATABASE
Each feature has a special condition so that if the feature has been disable through a property:
Level 200
if ENABLE_CLIENT <> "yes"
When I run the Setup in Silent mode, for example, I can run it in the following way:
"setup.exe" /s /v"/qb" /v"ENABLE_CLIENT=no"
and the feature Client is not installed.
The problem is that when I try to uninstall this specific installation, the uninstall process removes the Database and Server features and install the Client feature ...
So, how can I say to the feature condition that during uninstall it shouldn't care about the property value and simply uninstall everything?
Thanks

You probably could just use /x switch. If you have not, please refer to Setup.exe and Update.exe Command-Line Parameters.
