How Should Roll Back perform if After Update Scripts fail?

[aguanteboca]

I'm working in a scenario where I have a few "after update" scripts. During this process one of the scripts identified an issue which then returned an error to the wyUpdate. wyUpdate rolled back the application files (exe, dll, ocx, etc...), but did not roll back changes that were made in our ini configurations.

Is this Roll back feature limited to only certain file types or anything within the update directory?

Hey Jim,

The rollback is limited to files & folders that wyUpdate directly adds, patches, or removes. wyUpdate doesn't detect what files your scripts touch. So if you modify files in your scripts then you should back them up first (and restore them on error).

Thank you for the feedback. I do create long term backups in the event that we have a critical issue in our product(s) so that's covered. I just love your quick rollback feature which is why I was drilling for how this worked.
