Re: [WiX-users] Multi-Instance Major Upgrades
FINALLY! And naturally it didn't end up being very complicated. :p
So here is what i did.
1. In my .wxs I made an upgrade element to upgrade the product like you
normally would EXCEPT I made the upgrade code a random guid (NOT one i am
using). This was the only way I could get wix to create the upgrade table in
the msi. Since the guid is bogus it will never be found and the installs
will continue on as they normally would.
2. I used the 'CustomAction' element to give each instance is own upgrade
code and set the 'UpgradeCode' property according to the instance chosen.
Note: I scheduled these to run before 'AppSearch'.
3. Then I made a C# custom action to add temporary rows to the Upgrade
table.
4. The added rows were a copy of the current rows that were put there by
the 'Upgrade' element. EXCEPT I changed the 'UpgradeCode' to be the same as
the 'UpgradeCode' in the Property table.
5. This custom action is scheduled to run after the last 'SetUpgradeCode'
custom action that was mentioned in step 2.
6. THATS IT!

RemoveExistingProducts is part of the MajorUpgrade element. The Schedule
attribute is what schedules RemoveExistingProducts.
Thanks for the advice though.
I am thinking I may have to do a custom action that modifies the
UpgradeTable at install time, if that is even possible.

Currently I can do a major upgrade of a specific instance. There are a
couple problems though.
1. The default instance is upgraded fine. The transforms are upgraded,
BUT the previous version is not removed. So they both show up in ARP.

to install an old version as a different instance.

[WiX-users] Files In Use Problem
I have a problem with an upgrade from an Install Shield package to a Wix package Both packages install the FlexNet product from InstallShield and the update (major upgrade) Wix package is pushed to the client using the installed FlexNet. The Wix upgrade does a RemoveExistingProducts and correctly launches the old InstallShield install which shows the Files In Use dialog warning of reboot required. The Wix install then attempts to install FlexNet again. At the end of the upgrade, agent.exe from flexnet is present (probably the old one) After reboot agent.exe had been deleted from the system but the new one not installed. Why is the new file not getting copied over correctly?

Why not just extract the files from the EXE directly into the cache directory? The installer I'm working on with everything is 2.69GB so there's a lot spent file copying between the two directories. Also, Burn is leaving all the files extracted in the %TEMP% directory in BRN*.TMP directories. I swear I saw a bug in the database about that a while ago, but can't find it. I'll get that filed if I can't find it. The idea(l) is that the files are extracted then moved, so that only complete and verified files are in the cache. When TMP and appdata are on the same volume, it should be a move, afaik.

If you want to avoid having to make a bogus upgrade element just use the EnsureTable element for the Upgrade table. Then you would be able to add your custom rows with no problems (since the empty table will be in the MSI). -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Multi-Instance-Major-Upgrades-tp6273489p6277157.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
