There's not enough information there. Can you post the original and updated
source code ? Possibly the patch wxs too.

Subject: [WiX-users] Fragments and Patch generation

I am trying to create a "patch" install (.msp).  It has been a learning
struggle, but I got to the point where the msp install updates some files
(if I use an 'a' flag on reinstallmode).  However, in the original wix
project I use paraffin to create a fragment for a database update component. 
While that works for the full install, the files that are from the fragment
are not updated when I run the msp.

I use pyro to create the diff.wixmst file and I see the database files in
there.  I get no errors when I create the msp, but the log file for the
update shows that no database files are updated.  Is there something about
fragments and patchs taht I am missing?  I can try to manually build the
component in the main project, but this is a multi-folder, many file
structure that I would prefer to not do by hand.

Any help would be greatly appreciated for I have been at this for a few
days.  I'll be happy to provide any information requested.  Thanks
