I tried silently upgrading 19.0.1 on top of 18.3 with the following code snippet:
<Upgrade Id="E8805AF3-CF50-4092-BE57-220A8C51E2AA"> <UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect="yes" Minimum="19.0.1" IncludeMinimum="no" Property="NEWERVERSIONDETECTED"/> <UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect="no" Maximum="19.0.1" IncludeMaximum="no" Minimum="18.0.0" IncludeMinimum="yes" Property="OLDERVERSIONBEINGUPGRADED"/> </Upgrade> <CustomActionRef Id="WixExitEarlyWithSuccess"/> <InstallExecuteSequence> <RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallInitialize"/> <Custom Action='PrepareForInstall' After='InstallInitialize'>NOT Installed AND NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE</Custom> <Custom Action='SetJavawPath' Before='InstallServices'>NOT Installed</Custom> <Custom Action="Upgrader" After="InstallHelperAction">NOT Installed</Custom> </InstallExecuteSequence> The log file has the following entries: Doing action: FindRelatedProducts Action start 12:01:15: FindRelatedProducts. PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding OLDERVERSIONBEINGUPGRADED property. Its value is '{4B43BAEB-553B-4FAD-9219-C55DA3492D89}'. Skipping action: WixExitEarlyWithSuccess (condition is false) Doing action: AppSearch FindRelatedProducts. Return value 1. AppSearch. ... Windows Installer installed the product. ... Product Version: 19.0.1. Product Language: 1033. .. Installation success or error status: 0. It looks like upgrade should have succeeded, but in reality 18.3 is there and 19.0.1 is not. I noticed that we have <MajorUpgrade> element commented out (see above). Should it be uncommented? (Sorry I don't work with WIX a whole lot).
