Hi Phil, Neither. Because the original install was a done in a very old version of InstallShield, I'm just using <File> elements and letting the Installer Server just do a straight copy over the existing files. ProductCode and UpgradeCode are in effect, brand new.
Thanks, Jeff ________________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wilson, Phil [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 August 2008 17:43 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Conditional install of feature What kind of upgrade are we looking at here? A major upgrade with ProductCode changes and Upgrade table entries? Or is the ProductCode the same as the original product?

Subject: [WiX-users] Conditional install of feature Hi All, I have a Wix2 setup that is designed to "upgrade" a product installation to a known level. The original installation was InstallShield/InstallScript based. The product is essentially made up of a Client component and a Server component. The install has a couple of FileSearch-es to set properties: <!-- Is Rainbow 3 client installed? --> <Property Id='RB3CLIENT' Value='N'> <DirectorySearch Id='RBClientDirectory' Path='c:\Program Files\Rainbow'> <FileSearch Id='RainbowExe' Name='rainbow.exe' /> </DirectorySearch> </Property> <!-- Is Rainbow 3 server installed? --> <Property Id='RB3SERVER' Value='N'> <DirectorySearch Id='RBServerDirectory' Path='c:\Program Files\Rainbow'> <FileSearch Id='RBServicesExe' Name='rbfta.exe' /> </DirectorySearch> </Property> The RB3CLIENT and RB3SERVER properties are then used in Conditions on Features: <Feature Id="Client" Title="Rainbow Client" Level="0"> <Condition Level="1"><![CDATA[RB3CLIENT <> "N"]]></Condition> <ComponentRef Id="RainbowClientComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="RainbowSharedComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="RainbowHelpComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="VC80ATLComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="VC80CRTComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="VC80MFCComponent" /> </Feature> <Feature Id="Server" Title="Rainbow Server" Level="0"> <Condition Level="1"><![CDATA[[RB3SERVER <> "N"]]></Condition> <ComponentRef Id="RainbowServerComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="RainbowSharedComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="RainbowHelpComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="StoreProviderComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="VC80ATLComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="VC80CRTComponent" /> <ComponentRef Id="VC80MFCComponent" /> </Feature> My problem is that the Server component is never installed. Client seems to work ok (it installs and uninstalls fine). There is no UI option for the user to choose Features; it is worked out soley on the result of FileSearch-es. Any ideas?
