Hi,
I am looking for some resources – books/articles/websites on how to go about
building a professional setup. How to apply hotfix? How to version the
setup/dll’s? What are the issues involved in deploying product to end user?
Etc...
Basically, I am looking for a beginner’s crash course on
deployment/setup/versioning.
Thanks,
Nitin

Hi,The message you get is when you do a minor upgrade (ProductCode is the same,
just version changes). In this case (minor upgrades), you have to launch your
msi from the command line with like this:msiexec /i <your_setup>.msi
REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus.If you want to completely remove your product
first, a major upgrade is what you want. For this, change both product code and
version for your new setup. Also, add an Upgrade tag refering to your previous
version (make sure you set OnlyDetect to 'no' in there). You will probably want
to schedule 'RemoveExistingProducts' custom action after
'InstallInitialize'.Dacian

to automatically uninstall a Product in a WIX installer
Hi,I did build a WIX msi installer to install our product.However when I run
this installer again I do get a message box with the text'Another version of
this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot
continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use
Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel.'What I would want to happen is that
the installer first would deinstall the product and then reinstalls it from the
WIX msi installer.I have been playing around with the tag
RemoveExistingProducts however that doesn't do the trick.Is it possible to
automatically uninstall in a WIX msi installer?Best Regards,Harm-Jan
