Hi Everyone,
I'm experiencing something a little strange. I need to do some things with the output of the SdWelcomeMaint function/dialog. I know this dialog appears during the OnMaintUIBefore event. So, I decided to customize this event.
Before modifying this event, things (like file transfers) appeared to be working normally. However, after putting in some code in OnMaintUIBefore, I saw the dialog I wanted, but suddenly the other things stopped working properly. When I comment out the OnMaintUIBefore() things go back to working normally.
I was wondering what is required to be put into this event to keep everything else working during the maintenance operation?
Thanks in advance,
Mike Goldweber
Here's an example of my code:

I did some more digging after I posted the message, and I discovered the following functions:
FeatureReinstall();
FeatureRemoveAll();
Once I added them, things worked perfectly again! See the revised code below.
Enjoy,
