The MajorUpgrade element was only introduced in v3.5, are you sure you
have the latest version? I use this AllowSameVersionUpgrades="yes" in my
installs without a problem - other than being flamed here :-) I would
use this in preference to the upgrade table entries as it is easier but
this also works:
<Upgrade Id="$(var.UpgradeCode)">
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="$(var.Version)" IncludeMinimum="no"
OnlyDetect="yes" Property="NEWERVERSIONDETECTED" />
<!-- Including 'IncludeMaximum="yes"' will generate ICE61 but will
allow upgrades will the same version number -->
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="0.0.0" IncludeMinimum="yes"
Maximum="$(var.Version)" IncludeMaximum="yes"
Property="PREVIOUSVERSIONDETECTED" />
</Upgrade>
(I think your code need IncludeMinimum="no" in the detect only section.)

Subject: [WiX-users] SameVersion Upgrade
Hi,
I want to allow same version upgrades to take care of the fourth element
in the version numbers.
According to
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_majorupgrade.htm, I can
use AllowSameVersionUpgrades attribute to do this. However, I am getting
build errors as this element is not recognized.
error CNDL0004: The MajorUpgrade element contains an unexpected
attribute 'AllowSameVersionUpgrades'.
Has this been dropped from the schema in 3.5?
How else can I achieve the same version upgrade?
I have tried,
<Upgrade Id="{F57F3EEE-DE43-49A8-89CF-94477062396F}">
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="4.9.1" Property="NEWERPRODUCTFOUND"
OnlyDetect="yes" IncludeMinimum="no" />
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="4.9.1" Maximum="4.9.1" Property="FOUNDSELF"
OnlyDetect="no" IncludeMinimum="yes" IncludeMaximum="yes" />
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="1.0.0.0" Maximum="4.9.1"
Property="PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED" OnlyDetect ="no"
IncludeMinimum="yes"
/>
</Upgrade>
For FOUNDSELF case above, shouldn't install allow upgrade as OnlyDetect
attribute is set to 'no'?
This, however, results in an error message during installation that
another version has already been installed and this needs to be first
uninstalled before proceeding with the install.
Thanks
Umesh
