xPackage: Event with source identifier 'LogPath' does not exist. #767

Open billings7 opened 3 months ago

billings7 commented 3 months ago

Problem description

When using xPackage to install with an exe, with a LogPath specified, after the installation is complete the resource can fail with the error "Event with source identifier 'LogPath' does not exist.". I believe this happens when the exe does not actually output anything.

Suggested solution

Replace the Get-Event calls here with something like:

$masterEvents = @(Get-Event | where SourceIdentifier -in $LogPath, $errorLogPath)
$masterEvents = $masterEvents | Sort-Object -Property TimeGenerated
