Major upgrade requires ProductCode, PackageCode, and ProductVersion to be different in the new version. I don't know if that will make any difference, but because you product has 4 fields in the version number, try to change <UpgradeVersion Minimum="1.0.0" to Minimum="1.0.0.0". Otherwise, everything looks fine to me.

The two MSIs work independently of each other. That is I can install both MSIs successfully on my machine, and both will be in Add/Remove Programs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
