I understand, I was trying not to repeat what had already been covered in the thread. My "/Any more info on this?/" was referring to Blair's previous comment: "/I'm going to seek confirmation, but this appears to be due to a known bug that can't easily be fixed that doesn't affect Vista and newer p

Any more info on this? I seem to be experiencing the same issue. Bundle upgrade results in unchanged packages being uninstalled. It appears to affect Windows XP but not Windows 7 in my testing. Is there an existing bug report for this, I was unable to find it ... ? Our current workaround is ensur

Here are the logs from the exact same test but with the SceduleReboot element commented out of Package A. This upgrade is successful. The main difference I see is the dependents check i.e. dependents are actually found during this successful upgrade (and so A and B are correctly left alone). Not

I forgot to point out the scenario for the logs: - Bundle with 3 packages A, B, C - Package A Schedules a reboot - Package A and B are unchanged from initial 1.0.0.0 Bundle - Package C has been changed from 1.0.0.0 to 1.0.1.0 (upgrade) - Bundle version has been changed from 1.0.0.0 to 1.0.1.0 (Prod

Ok, did some more testing today: 1. This occurs with wixstdba or my custom ba 2. Upgrade fails (uninstalls all unchanged packages) when first package in bundle is unchanged and schedules a reboot 3. Upgrade succeeds if first package in bundle is unchanged but does NOT schedule a reboot 4. Upgrade

This sounds very similar (the same) to the problem I have been struggling with for a while. http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Bootstrapper-Upgrade-Issue-tt7579392.html Just did some more testing today, about to update above thread with my findings. -- View this messag

I noticed that the bug suggested to be related had been closed, so I tried this again with WiX 3.6.3303.1. The problem is still there. Just to re-iterate: 1. Bundle major upgrade (where 1 or more packages are unchanged, and 1 or more are major upgrades) 2. If any of the packages schedule a reboot:

However, in this case installation is fine. Only upgrades are affected, and even upgrades complete (seemingly) successfully. There are no other burn processes spawned as suggested in the linked issue (ID: 3538260). In the case I have described it seems as if 'ScheduleReboot' simply causes burn

Further investigation (trial and error) reveals that this has something to do with 'ScheduleReboot'. It seems that if any of the packages schedule a reboot using: it causes the issue described. However, if no reboot is scheduled by any package (I manually removed it for testing) then up

I was using v3.6.221.0; I have now changed to v3.6.2617.0 and it seems to have resolved the problem. Thank-you Rob. However, my BA (using the new build) now only seems to launch correctly on the build system. If I attempt to run it on another machine it fails with: Loading managed bootstrapper

I have a custom Burn BA based on WixBA which is working well, until I try an upgrade scenario. The bundle chains together 3 msi's. (A, B and C) I install the bundle successfully. I then attempt to install an upgrade bundle where A and B are the original msi's but C is a major upgrade. The versi
