The first and last log entries are saying that a file with the same component
id as Spiricon.Source.Gevicam.UI.dll is already installed with a higher version
, so it won't install it.
The middle log entry says you're removing Spiricon.Source.Gevicam.UI.dll, and
note that it has a different component ID.
It looks like you may have a file versioning issue because Windows is deciding
not to install the new one because a higher versioned one already exists.
However you also broke the sharing rules somehow because the two
Spiricon.Source.Gevicam.UI.dlls (in the old and the new inbstall) have
different component ids.
The story seems to be I'm not installing it because there's a higher version
already on the system and Nobody's using this Component guid any more so I'm
going to remove it

[WiX-users] New file not installed

Three of the new files are installed, one of the files is not. In the log I see two RemoveFiles for two of the files, one of which is the missing file.

Re: [WiX-users] New file not installed
somehow difficult to describe with few background information. So just some thoughts. Maybe take the Tramontana tutorial as starting point: http://wix.tramontana.co.hu/tutorial/upgrades-and-modularization. In general Tramontana seems for me one of the most efficient ways to get into WiX / MSI. Are you handling the whole installer as major upgrade ? Check for file versioning. Did any of the assembly versions decrease ?

Re: [WiX-users] New file not installed
somehow difficult to describe with few background information. what information do you need? Maybe take the Tramontana tutorial as starting point: yes, I am following the tutorial Are you handling the whole installer as major upgrade ? yes Did any of the assembly versions decrease ? this is a file that did not exist in the previous installation. there is no previous version.

Re: [WiX-users] New file not installed
I'm used to Major upgrades removing the previous release(s) so only the newest major version shows in Add/Remove Programs. But, that probably won't work if you have OnlyDetect=yes. And maybe that's not what you want to do. You might also check a clean install to see if all four files get installed. If it doesn't work on a clean install then that's probably the first place to take a look. I'd suppose that is working, just an idea. Do these files contain Version information or are they version-less type of files? Is each file in its own Component? Just some thinking points. -Original Message- From: Kurt Jensen [mailto:kurt.jen...@us.ophiropt.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2011 12:25 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

Re: [WiX-users] New file not installed
I had a recent situation where a window with no title had the file in use that I was trying to replace. And the developers on that project hadn't changed the version so it went like this. 1. MSI detects file in use so schedules a reboot for that to be deleted. 2. MSI does a version check of the file and sees it's the same so decides it doesn't need to replace anything 3. MSI reboots system and deletes file from step #1 - resulting in no file The OnlyDetect=yes says to keep the product it is looking for. OnlyDetect=no says to not only detect but also remove the prior version(s). Are these GAC'ed or WinSxS'ed files? Have their versions all changed? If not this article might explain it. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2007/02/08/assemblies-may-be-mi ssing-from-the-gac-or-winsxs-cache-after-an-msi-major-upgrade.aspx -Original Message- From: Kurt Jensen [mailto:kurt.jen...@us.ophiropt.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2011 1:20 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

Re: [WiX-users] New file not installed
The OnlyDetect=yes... ok, thanks. this could bite us... and, no, this is not possible. the file does not exist in the earlier version so it cannot be in use. Are these GAC'ed or WinSxS'ed files? no what is so weird is that 3 of the new files install just fine, while this one file does not. and there is nothing in the log that indicates anything special or different about this one file. it is listed in the same way and along with the other three. -Original Message- From: Chad Petersen [mailto:chad.peter...@harlandfs.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2011 3:06 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

Re: [WiX-users] New file not installed
Sounds like you have sequenced RemoveExistingProducts towards the end of the execute sequence. Correct? What happens if you sequence it early in the sequence so uninstall happens first? (that _should_ solve the problem) Is this new component in a feature whose state is not being migrated correctly by MigrateFeatureStates standard action? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/New-file-not-installed-tp6696061p6697454.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Get a FREE DOWNLOAD! and learn more about uberSVN rich system, user administration capabilities and model configuration.
