[wix-users] Bootstrapper does not wait for bundle to be installed

[Ивайло Гугалов]

Hi Sean,

I just have a Bundle element with an ExePackage inside:

<ExePackage ....
                        InstallCommand="/S
/V"UPGRADEADD="[UpgradeUrl]" MSIINSTALLPERUSER="1"
/qn""
                        UninstallCommand="/I /X /quiet /uninstall"
                        Cache="no"
                        Permanent="no"
                        PerMachine="no"
                        DetectCondition="IsInstalled" />

Here is the log:

[2008:2284][2021-03-29T07:11:45]i301: Applying execute package: AppName,
action: Install, path: C:\Users\Ivaylo\AppData\Local\Package
Cache\C6E07249B0721D7FFCAEA34F379A6EA49A670993\AppName.exe, arguments:
'"C:\Users\Ivaylo\AppData\Local\Package
Cache\C6E07249B0721D7FFCAEA34F379A6EA49A670993\AppName.exe" /S
/V"UPGRADEADD="upgradeUrl" MSIINSTALLPERUSER="1" /qn"'

Uninstallation is also not waiting for the exe to finish removing itself
(the uninstallation of the exe package is even breaking for some reason)
and the UI of the exe package is showing:

[1B7C:23B8][2021-03-29T07:50:53]i301: Applying execute package: AppName,
action: Uninstall, path: C:\Users\Ivaylo\AppData\Local\Package
Cache\C6E07249B0721D7FFCAEA34F379A6EA49A670993\AppName.exe, arguments:
'"C:\Users\Ivaylo\AppData\Local\Package
Cache\C6E07249B0721D7FFCAEA34F379A6EA49A670993\AppName.exe" /I /X /quiet
/uninstall'

Regards,
Ivaylo
