I changed the condition to "(NOT OLDPRODUCTS) OR (CPUPGRADE_CODE)" to resolve the issue. Thank you!!

This appears to block new installs

I found the minimum version number on the upgrade tabs but that only makes it switch to a new install. How can I detect if they contain version 3.2.xxx and allow an upgrade and if they have lower than 3.2.xxx then it alerts them and blocks the install? If they don't have any version installed then i...

I thought I tried that and on the upgrade it completely removed the registry values. I'll try again. Also this issue is when Advanced Installer reads the registry DWORD values with my search, it returns a string value with a # in front of it. My understanding this is by design but the problem is my ...

In my installer I have DWORD registry key values being created on the first install. These are tied to install parameters and there is a dialog where they can adjust the values during the install. Now during the upgrades (increment version number) I am not showing the settings dialog where they ente...

So are you saying we need to make sure we deploy "ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server" with Advanced Installer and make sure that is being used in Advanced Installer as the driver?

I have this same problem. Is there going to be a fix for this version?

I have an XML that I need to retain data. Currently I have a search and store those in a public variable which I use in the XML file. The problem is I have one element that has many child elements that can be put in by the user that need to be retained. I cannot figure out how to get this data and s...

So I found the issue.

During the upgrade the file System.Web.Razor.dll is not placed in the BIN directory. However when you do a repair (same installer) it puts the System.Web.Razor.dll file in place. Why would Advanced Installer be doing this?

I recently upgraded from version 13 to the latest. The last release I did of my product seems to have some strange issues when upgrading my product. When you install and it goes through the upgrade it appears to be fine but my application does not run (IIS app and generates 500 error about missing M...

I guess what i'm asking is if anyone else is having trouble with XML files. Basically this is what i've been trying to do: [*] Create IIS website if they enter a website that isn't created (but don't create the virtual directory) [*] IF they enter an existing IIS website then create a virtual direct...

It could just be me but I find Advanced Installer very difficult to use and get right. I find myself wasting more time dealing with the installer and problems it causes than actually writing the application. I'm attempting to deploy a MVC application to IIS while it also creates the database (first ...

I have a project that has two features (a ASP.NET app and a windows service). I have configured it with the configuredlg dialog and after that a prerequisites dialog. So on the configuredlg dialog I want the user to select the features they want to install and on the prerequisites dialog I want them...

I have two issues: The first is I put DISABLEROLLBACK=1 on the install parameters but it still rollsback each time it fails. During the install I'm storing data the user typed in into the registry and loading them each time the installer is loaded (so they don't have to retype all that data like: Sq...
