Subject: Re: [WiX-devs] Multiple instance patches
I was hoping to use the pure WiX patches routine as well as try to be able to
change a patch's target on the command line, but I'll settle to get it working
in the first place and then I'll go from there :).
I did create a patch using the <TargetProductCode /> element using MsiMsp.exe.
The patch now runs and patches the base installation just fine but when it goes
to patch the second instance I get a 1642 error. The output from the log file
is below (one finally generated).
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Matt

In your patch generation you need to target the patch for all the product codes
[instances] you want it to be applicable to.
<TargetProductCode Id="PRODUCT_CODE_GUID"/>
<TargetProductCode Id="PRODUCT_CODE_GUID_INSTANCE1"/>
<TargetProductCode Id="PRODUCT_CODE_GUID_INSTANCE2"/>
Etc...

I've been playing around with installing multiple instances of an application
used the <InstanceTransforms /> element, works quite well. I'm trying to
create a patch between 2 versions and apply that one patch to multiple

it is possible to do this by running the patch from the command line and
passing in the product id of the installed instance you want to patch. I have
yet to be able to get a patch to install to a second instance correctly,
installing to the base instances works just fine. The error message I get is:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because
the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a
different version of the program."
The command line executed is: msiexec /update 1to2.msp /n
{48F7E3D3-4291-45b0-AA5E-8A78337D95FF}
There is no log created even with /l*v
I included a <Validate /> element wondering if there was some check with the
different product code for the patch that was holding back, no joy.
<PatchBaseline Id="RTM">
<Validate ProductId="no" UpgradeCode="no" ProductVersion="Major"
ProductVersionOperator="GreaterOrEqual"/>
</PatchBaseline>
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Matt
