Hmmm..Again its the same issue in Installshield..I am using Installshield X version and I am getting the error when I try to install a minor upgraded version of MSI.I Googled a lot followed the steps to perform a minor upgrade.
*STEPS I FOLLOW *
As this is a minor upgrade (Jus a file updation) I changed the Package Code(generated a new one) and Product Version (incremented 1 from the previous) !!
*ERROR I GET *
I get an error "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"
I FOUND THIS AS A COMMON ERROR AND THERE WAS A SOLUTION FROM THE BELOW GIVEN LINK http://www.msigeek.com/1256/how-do-you-create-a-minor-upgrade-for-an-application-using-installshield
SOLUTION WITHOUT ERROR
I still remember the Upgrade working perfectly few months back for me as I use to get a Pop-up message saying that this a an upgrade... I did not perform any extra commandline statements or any other step expect the Package Code and Product Version
SOLUTION I NEED
Is there any thing to be done other than the regular process which I follow to install the new MSI on a system which has the previous version MSI ??
DETAILS TO MAKE IT MORE CLEAR
FIRST MSI Installshield Version - X Product Version - 5.1 Package Code - Same Upgrade Code - Same Product Code - Same Upgrades - Major (The minor upgrade worked for me wid out creating a upgrade for minor)
SECOND MSI Installshield Version - X Product Version - 5.2 Package Code - Generated new Upgrade Code - Same Product Code - Same Upgrades - Major (The minor upgrade worked for me wid out creating a upgrade for minor)
huh..Installshield Pros would have experienced this so replies please !! ;)
