When I say 2.2 should be installed, ideally I'd be able to run the 2.2 MSI for major upgrades & clean installs or the 2.2 MSP should be run for 2.0 or later. I could do this using simple conditions with dotnetinstaller as the MSI's & MSP's support these scenarios when manually run, I just want to not rely on the user to download & run the correct file for their specific scenario. Rob M. advised that to do the above with Burn I would have to schedule the v2.0 MSI for install & Slipstream the 2.2 MSP since Burn assumes a false InstallConditon means "uninstall" rather than "don't install".
Running that command on a clean install produces the same issue as Burn, it hangs at the WelcomeDlg & clicking Next does nothing.

When you say "v2.2 should be installed," you mean, v2.0 should be installed and then patched to v2.2, right? The second case (fresh v2.0 plus slipstreamed patch) appears to be hung inside MSI (or at least there's nothing in the MSI log to indicate progress). On the third case (major upgrade plus patch), I suspect it's failing because MSI doesn't support it. The logs look like MSI is trying to apply the patch to the v1.4 installed product instead of slipstreamed to the v2.0 product. It's not clear that MSI supports applying a major upgrade with a slipstreamed patch view applied. Please try the following on a machine with and without v1.4 installed and upload the logs. msiexec /l*vx! /i VESharedContent.msi ALLUSERS="1" MSIFASTINSTALL="7" PATCH="VESharedContent.msp" That's equivalent to what Burn is doing in both cases. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
