You must use two different command lines to install this. One for an upgrade,
which you referenced earlier with REINSTALL and REINSTALLMODE and another
without them for a new install.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371182.aspx says
v
Use to run from the source package and re-cache the local package. Do not use
the v reinstall option code for the first installation of an application or
feature.

No I have same product ID and same upgrade code for package. I just want to
change the version and my features are not going to change too.
I think it means minor upgrade so questions are:
1- I found this about Upgrade table
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372379.aspx it says something like
Upgrade Table information required during major upgrade. Does it mean that it
is not for minor upgrade? Because I put different values for UpgradeVersion but
nothing change. It seems Windows installer ignores it! Is It true?
2- It seems that migrateFeatureStates action works fine when I have an
older version of my product installed. (I tested that to see feature tree and
it looks fine even without Upgrade tag! ) but I still don't understand why the
feature tree changes if there is not any related product installed! Why the
behavior is not like a fresh install?
Thanks

The thing that changes feature states is the MigrateFeatureStates action. See
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370034.aspx for documentation on
this.
Have you done something odd like reuse an upgrade code from a different product
entirely? I would imagine this would cause MigrateFeatureStates to get confused.

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
Leila Lali
