Still need help

I have a installer project created it, installed it. Works fine. I then updated the version from 1.0.0.0 to 2.0.0.0 ran the build, uploaded it to server. Created an update project pointed to 2.0.0.0, made sure its looking in the registry for 1.0.0.0 to update. Uploaded the updates.txt file to the server. Click on the update it indicates an update is needed and performs the update. Then I click on the updater again and it again thinks there is an update needed.

Below are the files needed for diagnosis or eye opening for me. Thanks.

Re: Still need help

Hi,

I've looked over the files that you sent and I've noticed the following things:

1. In the Updates Configuration project, "Update Installed Detection" tab you set the "Do not try to detect if the update was installed" option which means that the updater will not check if an update was installed and it will always try to install it.

2. The detection criteria is set to the value below which does not exist in the new version of your product:

Code: Select all

RegistryKey = HKUD\Software\State of California DMV\Update_FGS_API\Version
Version = 1.0.0.0
You should set it to the value below in order for it to work as expected:

Code: Select all

RegistryKey = HKUD\Software\State of California DMV\File Generation System Wizard\Version
Version = 2.0.0.0
Let me know if this helped.
