I tried setting it to 16 and rebuilding the chained package still doesnt run maintenance mode. I tried adding a property [CHAINREINSTALLALL] to my install properties and setting it to an empty string on install or REINSTALLMODE="VOMUS" REINSTALL="ALL on repair through a custom action. Neither failed to end one seems to allow repair. I also tried following this blurb Flexera Chained MSIwhich offered this advice:You can modify this if necessary.

It will also be updated during a repair.Which did not seem to help.What am I doing wrong Back to top #2 overlordchin overlordchin Full Members 100 posts Posted 10 August 2012 - 15:51 Based on the post here msi maint modeI tried to change the value of IS_CHAINER_POST_COMMANDLINE but that didnt seem to work the way I had hoped it would. The repair didnt fire (displayed the setup was interrupted dialog SetupCompleteError). which indicates the string i supplied was incorrect or it couldnt find the msi file to run. I set the value to be: CODE /l"C:\DOCUME~1\QA\LOCALS~1\Temp\MSIcb4e.LOG" /qb /i"\"[SourceDir]My.msi\"";"ARPSY
