After some additional trial and error investigation what appears to be
happening here is that component files that get modified by <util:XmlFile
settings will not get updated by msp small update or minor upgrade processing.
The only way I could get the file to be updated with the new file settings,
e.g. assembly reference version number changes, and reapply the <util:XmlFile
settings was to include a msp processing case behavior that deletes the file up
front during msp small update or minor upgrade processing.
<DirectoryRef Id="Service1Dir">
<Component Id="Service1"
Guid="B9CD4A81-9755-42F5-BB25-CC8879B38C2B" Win64="$(var.Win64)">
...
<File Id="NsService.exe.config" Name="NsService.exe.config"
Source="$(var.SolutionDir)ClientSpecific\MSSolve\Configuration\NsService.exe.config"
/>
<util:XmlFile Id="Service1INgimServiceGatewayEndpointAddress"
File="[#NsService.exe.config]"
ElementPath="/configuration/system.serviceModel/client/[EMAIL
PROTECTED]"NGIMServiceGatewayEndpoint"[\]]"
Name="address" Value="[SERVICEGATEWAYURL]"
Action="setValue" />
<CustomAction Id="QtExecCmdLineSet16" Property="QtExecCmdLineRun16"

"[Service1Dir]NsService.exe.config"" />
<CustomAction Id="QtExecCmdLineRun16" BinaryKey="WixCA" DllEntry="CAQuietExec"

<InstallExecuteSequence>

<Custom Action="QtExecCmdLineSet16"

QFEUpgrade=1)</Custom>
<Custom Action="QtExecCmdLineRun16"

Conversely when the msp is removed I ended up with the prior release copy of
that file w/o the <util:XmlFile applied settings. I haven't figured out yet
how to have the remove process reapply the <util:XmlFile customizations to the
reverted version of that file. Any suggestions are welcome.

Subject: [WiX-users] msp patch and msi upgrade processing scenario where a
specific <app>.config file setting which has changed is not getting updated
I have a msp patch and msi minor pgrade processing result where a specific
<app>.config file setting which has underwent some miner content changes in the
v1.1 release is not getting updated.
If I diff my v1.0 target adminInstall and my v1.1 update adminInstall used to
by the old msimsp patch method for msp generation I can see the expected
differences between the two releases of the particular file in question.
When I run a v1.1 clean install I get the expected file contents.
The file in question gets updated during v1.0 deployment by associated
component <util:XmlFile settings that update wcf endpoint address settings to
be deployment environment specific. Is it those updates to that are
preventing the v1.0 to v1.1 msp patch minor upgrade and msi minor upgrade
processes from updating that file to contain the just the v1.1 added content?
If so is there syntax to instruct v1.0 to v1.1 msp patch and msi minor upgrade
processing to replace that file regardless and rerun the <util:XmlFile settings
component step?
