Hey all,
  I've got an MSI that is a MajorUpgrade to an existing product. The existing 
product has assemblies in the GAC and the new MSI needs to replace them. Using 
the standard Wix file element it all works great except if some app (e.g. 
w3wp.exe) is using the assembly in the GAC needing to be replaced.

I found this article and I'm seeing the 'temp' folder and its contents. I see 
the 'tmp' left behind but its empty and the new assembly is nowhere to be found.

What's worse is the MSI indicates success yet the GAC file is totally missing 
in action.

Reboots of the machine didn't resolve the problem.

Any ideas?
