Hi All, I am trying to create a patch (minor upgrade) to my WIX project which is expected to do three things:
1. Change the version number of my product (1.2.6.0 => 1.2.7.0) 2. Replace an managed exe where just the version number has changed (1.2.6.0 => 1.2.7.0) 3. Replace a simple text file which simply contains the updated version number. My patch definition file looks as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Patch AllowRemoval="yes" Classification="Update" Comments="Patch" Description="Patch" DisplayName="Patch" Manufacturer="..." MoreInfoURL="http://..."; TargetProductName="Szenario Rechner" Codepage="1252"> <Media Id="1000" Cabinet="Patch.cab" EmbedCab="yes" Source="Cab1" > <PatchBaseline Id="RTM" /> </Media> <PatchFamily Id='pf1' Version='1.2.7.0' Supersede='yes'> <ComponentRef Id="Szenariorechner" /> </PatchFamily> </Patch> </Wix> First, I tried the official WIX 3.6 Beta but always got warnings about an empty .cab file and the patch file size was just 20 kb. After switching to WIX 3.5 the patch creation process was without warnings or errors and I got a 480 kb patch file. However, when applying the patch file, which works without problems, only the managed exe file was replaced. The version number is still 1.2.6.0 and the text file still shows the old content (1.2.6). Can please anybody give me an advice what I am doing wrong. I've already checked every line in the tutorial and in the WIX book and I have googled for any related problem, without success!
