First, what was your commandline to pyro? You have to match the @Id of your PatchBaseline element to the wixmst you supply from torch in your pyro commandline (e.g. "-t Sample sample.wixmst"). Also your commandline to torch should include "-p".
Also, between your baseline and your upgraded you should do the following: They have the same values for ProductCode & ProductLanguage. If this is the only change you may want to consider making ProductVersion identical as well. In fact, the only difference between the two MSIs (or wixpdbs) should be that one condition. BTW, unless your condition is in the "MainExecutable" component you may want to try not putting any children in your PatchFamily element. If PatchFamily is empty it checks everything for inclusion. Otherwise it filters to only include what is in that list. -----Original Message----- From: John Lister [mailto:john.lis...@kickstone.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 14, 2009 7:59 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: os...@live.com Subject: Re: Re: Installer screw up Blair wrote > > If you have a lot of customers you will probably be better off > distributing > an MSP file which can be run right from your web site instead of requiring > a > special command-line like a minor upgrade MSI will. Cheers, this seems the best solution as it has been distributed a bit. Although i'm having a problem. I've changed the offending condition which now works ok, but i can't seem to build the msp file. Using either the MSI files or the wixpdb files makes no difference, I've taken the sample patch.wxs files from the web - If this is where i've gone wrong, please advise... <?xml version='1.0' encoding='windows-1252'?> <Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'> <Patch AllowRemoval='yes' Manufacturer='Kickstone Technologies Ltd.' MoreInfoURL='www.pricegoblin.co.uk' DisplayName='IE 8 Uninstall fix' Description='Patch to allow uninstall with IE8' Classification='Update'> <Media Id='5000' Cabinet='Sample.cab'> <PatchBaseline Id='Sample' /> </Media> <PatchFamily Id='SamplePatchFamily' Version='1.0.0.0' Supersede='yes'> <ComponentRef Id='MainExecutable' /> </PatchFamily> </Patch> </Wix> and all works well until i come to run pyro when i get the following error: pyro.exe : error PYRO0252 : No valid transforms were provided to attach to the patch. Check to make sure the transforms you passed on the command line have a matching baseline authored in the patch. Also, make sure there are differences been your target and upgrade. Is it because only a condition has changed? Do i need to change a file as well? If i change a file would the patch update the condition?
