The older version hadn't any ALLUSERS value set. The new version has ALLUSERS 
set to 1. But, I am installing both the versions from the same user account and 
it's still failing.

One more important aspect is that the older version had 'ARPNOMODIFY' set to 1. 
But, it hadn't any 'ARPNOREMOVE' property. The new version hasn't got any of 
the property.


Thanks.
Sudripta.

..... and are the ALLUSERS values the same? I believe there's a permachine / 
perUser choice but the MSI default is per user I believe.

Do you have a RemoveExistingProducts action defined in your execution sequence?

Subject: [WiX-users] Upgrading an older version of product

I have two versions of my MSI... one is version 1.0.0.0 and another is
2.0.1000.0. The upgrade code for both the MSIs are the same. But, there are many
significant differences between version 1.0.0.0 and 2.0.1000.0, including
different install directories and files-to-install. Version 1.0.0.0 installs
under 'Program Files\Orange' whereas version 2.0.1000.0 installs to 'Program
Files\Red'. There are no similarities between version 1.0.0.0 and 2.0.1000.0
except the upgrade code.

But, even when the upgrade codes are same, version 2.0.1000.0 is unable to
detect the previous version '1.0.0.0'. I have the following element defined
within my wix file:

<Upgrade Id='B5521437-2271-4c41-9F5D-58D4F960874C'>
<UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect='no' Property='PRODUCTOLDVERSIONFOUND'
Maximum='2.0.1000.0' IncludeMaximum='no'/>
</Upgrade>

But, seems the old version is not getting removed/replaced by the new version.
The new version installs/uninstalls as a separate product.


What am I doing wrong?


Thanks.
Sudripta.
