Hi,
I have changed a UIRef tag between versions of software
from Version 1.0: <UIRef ID="WixUI_FeatureTree" />
to Version 2.0: <UIRef ID="WixUI_Advanced" />
Wix Version 3.6
Now, when I run the Version 2.0 installer, it does not detect
the previous version, so instead of uninstalling during the upgrade
it installs a new version next to the existing version.
Intermediate versions upgraded fine (1.0->1.1->1.2).
The major changes in 2.0 are:
=============================
1. A new sub-feature under the main <Feature ID="ProductFeature"...
2. Change to the UIRef from WixUI_FeatureTree, to WixUI_Advanced
to allow deployment to select from 'AllUsers' and 'Single User'
Remove Existing Products is defined as:
=======================================
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<RemoveExistingProducts After='InstallInitialize' />
<Custom Action=...
...
My product is defined as:
========================
#UpgradeCode# is consistent between versions
#ProductId# is changed between versions
<Product Id="#ProductId"
UpgradeCode="#UpgradeCode#"
Name="!(loc.ApplicationName)"
Language="1033"
Codepage="1252"
Version="2.0.0"
Manufacturer="!(loc.Manufacturer)">
<Package
Id="*"
InstallerVersion="300"
InstallPrivileges="elevated"
Languages="1033"
Compressed="yes"
InstallScope="perMachine"
Manufacturer="!(loc.Manufacturer)"
SummaryCodepage="1252"
Platform="x86"
Description="!(loc.ApplicationName)"/>
<Upgrade Id="#UpgradeCode#">
<UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect="no" Property="PREVIOUSFOUND"
Minimum="1.0.0" IncludeMinimum="yes"
Maximum="2.0.0" IncludeMaximum="no"/>
</Upgrade>
I am wondering if there is something that I can do
to force the installer to check the upgrade and perform
remove of previous version that is no longer being handled
following my changes.
Thank you,
Sheldon
