Hi there!
I have a terrible problem with using the MajorUpgrade element in the current
installer we have. We tended to use the Upgrade element having different error
messages for different versions by using UpgradeVersion property.
We wanted this behaviour to persist and to force the Major upgrade for all the
software upgrades. (Changing the Product.Id by using a wildcard and using old
UpgradeVersion is not the solution as it makes the installer downgrading
between builds with no errors - from 2.3.4.6 to 2.3.4.2 , having two software
versions installed side-by-side).
MajorUpgrade:
-------------------------------------------
It is not possible to specify the Minimum or Maximum upgradable software
version for this element, because the UpgradeVersion is not supported by
MajorUpgrade element, which prevents from creating the custom actions with
different error codes for particular software versions.
-------------------------------------------
Trying to work it around:
Using the MajorUpgrade element side by side with Upgrade element is not
possible, as the MajorUpgrade's default Id is set to Product.UpgradeCode which
clashes with Upgrade.Id being set the same.
There are error messages attached to the email.
Could you please help? :)
Thanks!
