Our team has been filling that fourth index with larger numbers for years
with no ill affects, so I assumed this was acceptable. I will deliver to
them the bad news ;)
I will also open a bug for wix to flag such builds with compile warnings so
other teams don't encount

Product versions must be less than or equal to 255.255.65535.65535.

Thank you Bob,
I have isolated the issue by using basic Visual Studio WiX projects (Setup
Project and Bootstrapper Project)
To create the MSI, I created a simple Setup Project and changed the
Product's Version attribute to 1.0.0.65536. Then I crated a basic
Bootstrapper Project and added a single
My Mistake, it's the MSI causing the issue, not the Burn Engine. See
the post I linked earlier...

Burn supports all four places of version

How are you authoring that? If you put such a version as a literal
string, the compiler will fail with an error message saying you can't do

Sorry I'm still a bit confused. If this is the case, then why am I able to

The fact that an MSI with fourth index 65535 (1.0.0.65535) will execute
from a WiX bootstrapper with no issue, while an MSI fi

We are okay with WiX ignoring this number for upgrading purposes. We simply
attach the build CL in the 4th index so we can trace each MSI back to the
point of creation if needed
The problem seems to be that Burn can't parse MSI files which fill this
value with a number larger than 16-bit unsigned.
This is expected behavior because all of WiX ignores the 4th version
number... If you want to test for it, you must do it manually.

Wix is allowing me to create msi files with a large number in the fourth
version index (6-digit numbers, i.e. 11).
I'm trying to use burn to create a bootstrapper which bundles my wix
installer. When I include an msi in the bundle which has a fourth version
index greater than 65535 (16-bit uns

I do not have direct experience with this issue, but I suspect the thing to
do is to leave the new package name as is, but rather author multiple
upgrade codes to also remove the old product.

what if at build time I change the name of the MSI to be the same as the
original MSI's name and use the same upgrade code?
Would that work ?

You can also do this by right clicking on the project and Add --> "Existing

When you find the file you want, don't double click, go down to the Add button
and you will notice a tiny arrow to the right, click and then select "Add As

That should do it, and eliminates having to mod
