That won't work: The product is already installed so Burn won't install 
it again.

[WiX-users] Using burn to install the same package in two different locations

2012-02-07 Thread Christian List 
I have a question about how burn handles packages that install to different
locations.

I have these 3 packages:
msi package A
msi package B
msi package C
I want to create two installers with burn using these three msi packages

My first burn installer installs:
msi package A to location 1
msi package B to location 1

My second burn installer installs:
msi package A to location 2
msi package C to location 2

So a customer who installs both of my burn installers, will end up with msi
package A installed to both location 1 and location 2.
Can burn handle this?
Does uninstall work correctly, such that when I unsinstall the first burn
installer it only removes the msi package A files from location 1, and when
the second burn installer is removed it removes the msi package A files
from location 2?
Can I create a patch for msi package A that only gets applied to one burn
installer and not the other?

Package A has the same product Id in both burn installers, will that be a
problem? Or can it somehow be changed between the two burn installers?
