Are you mixing up minor and major upgrades ?
Major upgrades use the upgrade table and replace the old product with the new
one. You don't specify REINSTALL or REINSTALLMODE on the command line. The
upgrade code should be the same and the product code and version different.

Well if you're creating a website versus using an existing one, then pretty
much all of your IIS authoring needs to be in components. That's a pretty
unusual pattern in practice. Usually, my app pool, virtual directory, and web
applications authoring is in components but I use the website

Hmm, have you checked the verbose log on this? I wouldn't expect these

When I'd created a new website in IIS and wanted to bind a certificate to the
IP address, I didn't find a WiX element that would do it. At the time, I
used a shell script to do this binding, using netsh. I ran the shell script
as a custom action. This probably isn't the most robust way to do it.
Could you use a custom action to get the environment variables at install
time? In managed code:
System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(String name)
I'm not sure if there's a declarative way of doing this in WiX.

Did you try my suggestion of LogonUser?

The problem is that this will only return the name and not the domain so you
might have to resort to a custom action.

Hi,
During bundled upgrade, if the uninstall of the old bundle fails, this
invokes a rollback on MSI upgrade. This in turn causes the MSI to be
uninstalled instead of just rolling back to re-install the previous version
of MSI. The version of wix am using is 3.6.2803.0.
Is this a known issue
I would say UPGRADE != relationType otherwise you'll be messing with add-on
and patch bundles too, I think.
