I am having trouble getting my installation to work correctly. In my
installation, the user needs to select 3 paths, the Program Installation
folder, the Local data folder, and the Server data folder. The Local and
Server data folders can be shared, or separate folders depending on the
user. I have got the install to allow to select all three folders, and the
properties are getting updated, but for some reason, it is not updating the
sub-folders of my Server data folder. However, both the Program install and
the Local data folders are updating correctly, and I am totally stumped as
to what is happening. If anyone can help I would sincerely appreciate it.
I am including copies of the WXS files as well as the relevant portion of
the log file to help to try to determine what the problem is.
I am assuming that the user is performing a full UI install, at the present
point in time. I may allow for Minimal UI and Administrative installs
later, but I need to get it working with the Full UI currently. I removed
all GUIDs from the files and inserted "YOUR_GUID_HERE" instead. I also
anonymized the folder names. I have attached the section of the install log
showing where the local data folder path was updated, but the server data
sub-folders were not, at the end of the message.
