That's what I am saying the msistuff will do for you.  That's exactly how I
have my setup.  My packaged exe will perform an installation if it doesn't
exist, and it will update the installation if it DOES already exist.

 Because I want if there is a old version installed, it upgrade it.
Otherwise it should install the new version.

Why are you running msiexec with the /i parameter, but specifying the
REINSTALL and REINSTALLMODE properties?

Actually  creating bootstrap is not my problem, my problem is when I'm
running msi with ReInstall=All command:



msiexec /i setup.msi REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /log log.txt



the feature tree view is totally different than running msi without these
commands.

I think that you might want to check out the Bootstrapper example that is
on the WiX sourceforge page 
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=105970&atid=654188
)

After you build that, you should have a setup.exe.  With that, you will be
able to use msistuff to package your MSI in it as well.  I believe what
you're looking for is to use the msistuff with the following command
parameters:

msistuff.exe setup.exe /o INSTALLUPD /d mymsi.msi /b mymsi.msi /v 200 /n
"My Product"

Hi,



I'm trying to create a Bootstrap exe file from my msi, that can be used as
new version of setup. This exe file could find the old version and upgrade
them, but my problem is,  when it couldn't find any other version of product
and should act as a fresh setup, the feature tree will completely change!
The features should be for complete setup and I set the levels to be like
this. But when I'm running the setup exe and there is not any old version of
product installed, the features will be changed for custom setup
(unselected)





*Setup.exe runs msi with these commands: REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus
*

Does anybody know what my problem is?



Thanks
