Problem While doing Version Up
Hi,
I am preparing installer for my application using Install Shield 2011 Premier Edition. I am using BasicMSI option. Till now I released three version 1.0, 1.1, 1.2
Version1.0 is base version and rest are update versions.
On customer request, I removed one folder which contains DLLs and I delivered it as Version1.3. I asked them to uninstall the previous version and install Version1.3 as fresh install.
Now I am going to release update Version1.4. In this I am adding the Folder and its DLLs which i deleted in Version1.3.
When i tried to update Version1.4 over Version1.3, none of the files gets updated. I generated log file while installing and i am not able to see any error message. Also in Log file, there is no information of copying the files to destination folder.
Even in installation progress bar, I am not seeing the message "Updating Component Registration" and "Copying Files".
When I tried to uninstall my application, all files remains in the folder.
I tried creating new Installer also. But it didn't work.
Can some one guide me where I am going wrong, as I am new to Install Shield.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Hari Krishnan.EL

Hello.
Why don't you check the following KB?

It looks like component rules are broken.
