...but seems not so automagically from 0.70. ;(((

Yesterday late evening i have do some test.

1) upgrading from command line, eg:

        \\FILE\wpkg\wpkg.js /syncronize

works flawlessy with:

        <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qb /i %SOFTWARE%\WPKG\WPKGSetup.msi 
SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml' />

2) upgrading using wpkg client itself does not work (error 1638,
'...you have to remove previous version before installing this').

3) upgrading using wpkg client but with:

        <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qb /x{BD368683-C6EB-480A-B497-56CE35D59D28}' />
        <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qb /i %SOFTWARE%\WPKG\WPKGSetup.msi 
SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml' />

got error 1603 and leave really really strange result.
I've found that double clicking on the WPKGSettings icon start the msi
installer, that the folder %PROGRAMFILE%\WPKG\ have the permission
totally removed (no one ACL listed).

If i try to uninstall i got:

after resetting the permission with fill control to Administrator and
SYSTEM i was able to uninstall WPKG and reinstall it.

Really half an hour of total panic, also because i was so stupid to use
the main configuration (the 'production' O;-).


I'm trying to test some other way of automatic upgrade from .7 to .8
(i'm considering and upgrade script that call AT to schedule the
upgrade with WPKG not running...), but i hope these info will be
useful.
