[wix-users] WIX Condition that should be firing but is not

[harald goci]

Just guessing ...
If the right side of the "AND" is correct, then the left side might not
work?
I checked some installation logs of mine and could not find a property
REMOVE.
If REMOVE="" is not the same as [REMOVE not existing] then the Condition
would be false.

How about some tests?

Hi,



I have this WIX XML snippet of code that on a W7 SP1 x64 system is not
matched by either <Condition>.

The system is a W7 SP1 system (i.e. a VersionNT value of 601).

So the first condition should fire but I saw that the dll did not get
installed.

Unfortunately, this is at a customer site and I did not get an opportunity
to capture a msiexec log.

I am posting in case I am overlooking something obvious (something I
regularly do! ☹ ).

Thanks in advance!



            <Component Id='MMCSnapInDotNet35' Guid='xx'>

              <Condition>

                <![CDATA[REMOVE="" AND ((NOT
WIX_IS_NETFRAMEWORK_40_OR_LATER_INSTALLED) OR (VersionNT < 602))]]>

              </Condition>

              <File Id='MMCSnapInDotNet35.dll' Name='MMCSnapIn.dll'
DiskId='1'

                    Source='\Project\mmc\DotNet35\bin\$
(var.BuildMode)\MMCSnapIn.dll' KeyPath='yes'>

              </File>

            </Component>

            <Component Id='MMMCSnapInDotNet40' Guid='yy'>

              <Condition>

                <![CDATA[REMOVE="" AND
((WIX_IS_NETFRAMEWORK_40_OR_LATER_INSTALLED) AND (VersionNT >= 602))]]>

              </Condition>
