installing an upgrade for multiple instances

Hello,

I'm using 14.0.2 and I am having some problems with multiple instance installs.

I am installing from the command line:

<exe name v1>.exe /NewInst "InstanceName" -- installs as expected
<exe name v2>.exe /UpgrdInst "Instance guid" -- get prompted to modify, repair, or remove

Installing through the exe installation wizard, the install works as expected.

I need some assistance to get the Upgrade to work on the command line.

Re: installing an upgrade for multiple instances

Hello,

Our development team has investigated this issue and it seems to be triggered by the fact that you did not use the product code of the instance from the old project in the command line (<exe name v2>.exe /UpgrdInst "Instance guid") . Also please make sure the product codes of the instances from the upgrade project are different than the product codes of the instances from the old package.

Best regards,
