I logged the installation, and the first time in it that the UpgradeCode-GUID
shows up is at the end of the log when registering. What I did find that seems
odd to me is this:
Action start 18:40:42: FindRelatedProducts.
MSI (c) (48:B4) [18:40:42:744]: FindRelatedProducts: current install is
per-machine. Related install for product
'{32A5C88F-600B-4B2C-B539-AB71A1CB04D1}' is per-user. Skipping...
MSI (c) (48:B4) [18:40:42:744]: FindRelatedProducts: current install is
per-machine. Related install for product
'{32A5C88F-600B-4B2C-B539-AB71A1CB04D1}' is per-user. Skipping...
Action ended 18:40:42: FindRelatedProducts. Return value 1.
This has me thinking it finds the previous product, but decides to skip
upgrading because it was per-user installed. This is like a riddle to me. I
think I am installing per-machine with this one because there were some issues
doing it per-user. Before thinking too hard about this, could
per-machine/per-user difference that be the very issue causing it to create two
installations? I've only got 1 user-account on this machine that I'm logged on
as and used it to install 4.2.0 and 4.3.0 back-to-back, quite a many times by
now. :-)

Get your SQL database under version control now!
Version control is standard for application code, but databases havent
caught up. So what steps can you take to put your SQL databases under
