  error TRCH0279 : The table definition of 'WixVariable' in the target
  database does not match the table definition in the updated database. A
  transform requires that the target database schema match the updated
  database schema.
 
  We supply a development tool which uses WiX to deploy applications. Its
  used by 100's of development shops in many situations. Hence this issue is
  stopping us upgrading the WiX version because it would stop them being able
  to patch an application that's already been released.
 
  Is it possible to use a backward compatibility flag - e.g. set WixVariable
  to 3.5?
 
  Alternatively, can 3.8 be installed without uninstalling 3.5?
 
  warm regards
