problem applying patch after creation mst
I have created an mst for a vendor msi and afterwards I try to apply an msp file.
This is failing. How can I see which customisations in my mst are causing the patch to fail ?

The best way to handle patches IMV is to have an Administrative Installation Point and patch that (having backed it up first, of course - always have a fall-back!). Then you can apply whatever transform/command line you want to the new MSI. The additional bonus is that you have a single maintenance point, rather than 'x', where 'x' is the number of PCs on which the product is installed.
As usual, create a verbose log for your installs when testing. Without a log, it's pretty much quess-work as to what's gone wrong.

Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,so that the conversation will remain readable.
