Re: [WiX-users] Multiple entries in ARP, while upgrading an installation.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370859(v=vs.85).aspx In general, *everything* actually is documented in the Windows Installer SDK. However, it's not organized very well and the way I had to learn it was to read every single page over and over and during the course of troubleshooting the little tidbits would finally be absorbed. I'd say it took me 6 months to stop beating my head against the wall and drink the kool-aid that MSI was a good choice and 6 more months to have that 'been there done that' feeling where it was now instinctive on what to do and not do. A good mentor to work with on a daily basis helps in this process but they are typically impossible to find at your day job.

If you are trying to do a major upgrade, then the new setup needs to have both a different ProductCode and a different version (in the first three positions). -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Multiple-entries-in-ARP-while-upgrading-an-installation-tp7591775p7591825.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

I got it from the mailing list and wix book. It would be on the MSI MSDN somewhere but I don't know where.
