[wpkg-users] Check is failing when it shouldn't on MS SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB

[Paul Griffith]

Hi,

    I am running into a strange case where a check is failing when it 
shouldn't. I am trying to check the install of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 
Express LocalDB and it keeps failing.  In my package below if I have 
only the "uninstall" check, the check fails, but the registry check 
which should be the equivalent of the  "uninstall" check is successful.  
I have the same problem with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Native Client 
11.2.5058.0.  Any idea?


<check type="uninstall" condition="versiongreaterorequal" 
path="Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB" value="%PKG_VERSION%" />

<check type="registry" condition="equals" 
path="HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{E4A1FDA3-689D-44DA-9B39-86BD2270F522}\DisplayVersion" 
value="11.2.5058.0" />
