Rob Mensching-7 wrote > Why doesn't that work today? @Rob : I don't know why it doesn't work, but i made some experiments and can confirm *THAT*it doesnt work in 3.9R2. : If i try to downgrade a bundle, a message pops up telling that a higher version of the bundle is already installed:
<http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/file/n7600024/Unbenannt.png> However, having read some discussions and reasoning myself a bit about this issue, i think that this behaviour is 'works as designed' and is not too bad. By default, you also cannot downgrade a 'plain' MSI, and there are some good reasons for this default behaviour, as i learned meanwhile. You /CAN /build a downgradable MSI, but this gives you an ICE warning. If a bundle containing a chain of MSIs allowed downgrading, this could in generally only work if all contained MSIs were also downgradable. If some of them were not, the downgrade would fail under some conditions, and sometimes not - could be quite confusing to the end user. On the other hand, if an end user desperately wants to downgrade with the current implementation, she has always the option to first uninstall the bundle (as advised in the error message), and then reinstall the older version. From my point of view, that's sufficient and pretty clear. regards , Martin -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Downgrading-a-Bundle-tp7599999p7600024.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
