Your command line looks wrong: msiexec /i ExampleInstaller.msi REINSTALALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus should be msiexec /i ExampleInstaller.msi REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus
(However, it may be another typo.) It is expected behavior to get the maintenance dialog during a minor upgrade. Once you click "Install", any newer files should be installed over the old ones. Also, you don't actually need to remove the Upgrade tag. It just doesn't get used during a minor upgrade. It is used for major upgrades. -----Original Message----- From: polan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2008 3:39 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How Update / Upgrade strategy (small, minor, major) affect file overriding?

I don't insert the upgrade tag, I change the package guid, and version. I run the installation msiexec /i ExampleInstaller.msi REINSTALALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus And i get stuck at maintenance dialog instead of getting normal installation. What's possibly wrong? Or maybe it is just the way that minor upgrade works? (couldn't think of the good reason) The other question is - if I get through it, will the minor upgrade override the files with new versions? I enclose a file with the source (it is a very simple and short one) http://n2.nabble.com/file/n1306236/Product.wxs Product.wxs Ian Elliott (Excell Data Corporation) wrote: > > Also, you listed below that the package guid didn't change for one > scenario.
