By the way, the version 3.1 and 3.2 have the same upgrade ID because they are
3.x products.
The version 2.1 has a different upgrade ID because it's 2.x products.
You can see the upgrade ID is different here:
<Upgrade Id='0F8634B0-560B-4473-BBC3-46D885AC8E04'>
<UpgradeVersion Property="OLDAPPFOUND"
OnlyDetect='no'
Minimum="0.0.0"
IncludeMinimum="yes"
Maximum="$(var.ProductVersion)"
IncludeMaximum="no"
/>
<UpgradeVersion Property="NEWAPPFOUND"
Minimum="$(var.ProductVersion)"
IncludeMinimum="no"
OnlyDetect="yes"
/>
</Upgrade>
<Upgrade Id='1B28D0BC-EF1A-4FE2-9020-44F37CB8DBB8'>
<UpgradeVersion Property="OLDPRODUCTFOUND"
OnlyDetect='no'
Minimum="1.0.0.0"
IncludeMinimum="yes"
Maximum="100.0.0.99999"
IncludeMaximum="no"
/>
</Upgrade>
<CustomAction Id="NewerVersionDetected" Error="There is a later version of
this product installed."/>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<RemoveExistingProducts After='InstallValidate' />
<Custom Action="NewerVersionDetected"
After="FindRelatedProducts">NEWAPPFOUND</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
<InstallUISequence>
<Custom Action="NewerVersionDetected"
After="FindRelatedProducts">NEWAPPFOUND</Custom>
</InstallUISequence>
Thanks.

product and a previous product?
Hello WiX experts,
Could you please have a look at my problem below?
Basically, what I'd like to do is simple. Say, we have the product version 3..1
and 3.2. When install 3.2 on top of 3.1, the 3.1 needs to be removed firstly.
By using Major Upgrade, it works.
Now, we'd like to do one more thing: when install 3.2, not only uninstall 3.1,
but also uninstall version 2.1 if it's found in the target machine. So I added
one entry in the upgrade table. When I installed 3.2, the version 2.1 is
uninstalled which is good. But 3.1 wasn't uninstalled anymore. What could be
wrong?
The code and log info is in the email below.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Blair,
Thanks for you reply. That's a good point.
I'd like to clarify a couple of things: before I made the code change, the
upgrade from 3.2 to 3.1 worked. What I'm trying to do is to add one more
'upgrade ability' - that means, besides upgrading 3.1, I'd like to also upgrade
2.1, for instance. But after I added that one more upgrade entry in the upgrade
table, the upgrade from 2.1 to 3.2 works; but upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2 is NOT
working.
So I do the install again, and this time I made the log. What I did is, I
installed 3.1, then installed 3.2. As expected, I got 2 entries in control
panel's Add/Remove programs. They are 3.1 and 3..2, of course.
I then looked the log, I didn't find the property OLDPRODUCTFOUND get set. I
guess this is okay because I don't have 2.1 installed, right? I expected the
3..1 is removed - but it is not. The property OLDAPPFOUND associated with 3.1
products.
Here are the logs:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As you can see, the property OLDAPPFOUND is set in line 3604 and 3748, but why
it is set two times?
Anyways, the property OLDAPPFOUND is set because the installer did find the old
product 3.1, I suppose?
But from line 972, it says "Skipping RemoveExistingProducts action: current
configuration is maintenance mode or an uninstall". So the question is why the
RemoveExistingProducts action is skipped? It's not a maintenance mode or
uninstall. It's an upgrade.
I really appreciate if you can point me out the problem.
Here is my code - I just post it again:
<Upgrade Id='0F8634B0-560B-4473-BBC3-46D885AC8E04'>
<UpgradeVersion Property="OLDAPPFOUND"

Thanks.

What does your verbose debug install log say? Was the OLDPRODUCTFOUND
property ever set?

Subject: [WiX-users] Major Upgrade: How to do major upgrade for the currect
product and a previous product?
Hi,
We're using WiX version 3. We do Major Upgrade. It works fine. I mean, when
installing a new version, the old version of the software is uninstalled
first, then the new software is installed.
"0F8634B0-560B-4473-BBC3-46D885AC8E04" is the upgrade code. Our new software
version is 3.x.y series.. Let's say, when install 3.2.0 on top of 3.1.0, the
3.1.0 got uninstalled firstly. It works.
Here is the code:
<Upgrade Id='0F8634B0-560B-4473-BBC3-46D885AC8E04'>
<UpgradeVersion Property="OLDAPPFOUND"
OnlyDetect='no'
Minimum="0.0.0"
IncludeMinimum="yes"
Maximum="$(var.ProductVersion)"
IncludeMaximum="no"
/>
<UpgradeVersion Property="NEWAPPFOUND"
Minimum="$(var.ProductVersion)"
IncludeMinimum="no"
OnlyDetect="yes"
/>
</Upgrade>
<CustomAction Id="NewerVersionDetected" Error="There is a later version of
this product installed."/>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<RemoveExistingProducts After='InstallValidate' />
<Custom Action="NewerVersionDetected"
After="FindRelatedProducts">NEWAPPFOUND</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
<InstallUISequence>
<Custom Action="NewerVersionDetected"
After="FindRelatedProducts">NEWAPPFOUND</Custom>
</InstallUISequence>
Now, we'd like do upgrade for an old product which has a different upgrade
code, you know. Our old software version is 2.a.b series, let's say,
something like 2.2.0. During installing of the 3.x.y software, we'd like to
also uninstall 2.a.b software.
To support this "uninstall old version of software", I thought I just need
to add one more entry in upgrade table to include this old software's
upgrade code. So I added this code:
<Upgrade Id='1B28D0BC-EF1A-4FE2-9020-44F37CB8DBB8'>
<UpgradeVersion Property="OLDPRODUCTFOUND"
OnlyDetect='no'
Minimum="1.0.0.0"
IncludeMinimum="yes"
Maximum="100.0.0.99999"
IncludeMaximum="no"
/>
</Upgrade>
The old proudct upgrade code is "1B28D0BC-EF1A-4FE2-9020-44F37CB8DBB8".
So now, if I have both 2.2.0 and 3.1.0 installed, then when I install 3.2.0,
I expected both 2.2.0 and 3.1.0 will be removed. But in reality, only the
2.2.0 is uninstalled, the version 3.1.0 is not installed. Then I got two
instance of software 3.1.0 and 3.2.0. Also, in control panels, there are two
entries.
Why 3.1.0 isn't removed? How to fix this? Please point me out the problems.
Many thanks!!!
/Brian
