Hi Michael, I found the problem. It was my mistake. I did the following just before the uninstall : Write Registry Key HKLM\\#AppRegistryKey#\\Installer\\UserDatBackupDir, $TARGETDIR$ (permanent) Apply Install (get result into variable SUCCESS) Apply Uninstall (get result into va...

So I enabled verbose logging for the removal of the old version. In the log in several places I see ALLUSERS=TRUE or ALLUSERS=1 So I added the following in front of the uninstall command : Set Variable ALLUSERS to FALSE Install/Remove MSI Package $PRODUCTCODE$[REMOVE=ALL] (get result into variab...

I found an unusual usage for the errorcode ERROR_UNKNOWN_PRODUCT at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370395.aspx If the user name is an empty string or NULL, the function operates on the per-machine installation of the product. In this case, if the product is installed only in the per-user ...

Hi bookie,

Sounds correct.

You can always double check that with the debugger, with messagebox debugging or with a logfile.

Filebags also have further advantages:
- the files don't get copied into the IA project dir
- can be included in web deploy blocks

Hi moppelstroppel,

I would be extremely surprised if any installer product offered a function to find that out.
You will have to write a dll, that you can call from your installer script.
To write the dll you might start at : http://www.opengl.org/

Hi theseira, If in the "Application Runtimes" section of the design view any package is checked, it will copy these file from the program folder to your build folder. You could avoid that from happening every time by building a "Web deploy" setup, and disabling the rebuild of the...

Hi everyone, when a new web update is downloaded through the automatic mechanism, everything installs fine usually. But here are are two cases when it fails: 1st case: - The automatic updater (MyInstaller.exe /update) found a new version and sits in the system tray telling the user that a new versio...

Hi dawidp, were the data files available when you built the patch? My understanding is that the installer has to be set up as if you wanted to make a full setup. And it detects the differences itself. Differences would only be found in the program files in your case. In addition, did you read the wh...

Hi nucce, in 5 minutes of research I found neither a simple InputBox command in InstallAware nor in the Win32 API. So it looks like you have to get that user input with an InstallAware dialog. Play a bit with the dialog editor, and if you have further questions feel free to ask. Writing to the regis...

Hi wileywilly,

in addition, did you read http://www.installaware.com/installawar ... pdates.pdf and have a look at the updates.ini files?

In your post you talk about product/revision codes and version numbers. These are two separate things.
