DotNet COM+ Installation
I am new to MSI projects and I have a question regarding COM+. I created an InstallScript custom action that uses COMADMIN to install a Dotnet component into Component Services. My questions are:
[LIST=1]
Where in the Execute sequence should I place this Deferred custom action?
Where do I place the uninstall custom action so that it removes what the other CA created?
Do I need to create a Rollback CA to remove the component if the install is cancelled? If so where do I put this?
How do I attach the custom actions to a Feature. This way the COM+ piece gets installed and uninstalled based on the selection of that feature?

Here are my suggestions:
[LIST=1]
Sequence your install action after the RegisterComPlus action.
Sequence your uninstall action before the UnregisterComPlus action.
Have an initialization action to back up the original COM+ catalog, and have a rollback action to restore it.
Specify a condition for your actions to run them conditioanlly based on a feature selection.
Hope that helps.
