Hi Warrick, Kindly refer the following link which has more information regarding Major upgrade and the Product code. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa369786%28VS.85%29.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367850%28v=VS.85%29.aspx The Quick Patch option is not available in InstallShield Limited edition. It is available in InstallShiled Premier and Professional editions which are enhanced versions of InstallShield. I have gone ahead and created a sample project which performs an upgrade of the existing version of the product. Kindly refer the sample project. Thanks, Lenwin

Hi Warrick, You may perform the following steps to create an upgrade. In an upgrade ensure that the Product version is higher than the base version and the Product code is different. In the upgrades paths view, create a new upgrade path. Refer the setup.exe or an msi file of the base version. If you do not have the setup file of the older version, then ensure that the upgrade code of the new version of the installer is same as that of the older version. Specify appropriate values in the Min version and Max version field for the new upgrade path created. You may also refer the following thread. http://community.flexerasoftware.com/showthread.php?t=194062 Thanks, Lenwin

Hi Warrick, You may create a compressed setup. This compressed setup contains the setup.ini file. A compressed setup.exe file can be created by selecting the Single Image option. Thanks, Lenwin

Hi Warrick, This error message might be encountered due to the MSI file not able to locate the files which have to be placed on the target machine. In order to resolve this issue you may create a compressed MSI. To create a compressed MSI Navigate to the Releases view. Set the Setup Launcher filed to Value No under Setup.exe Tab. Build a Single Image. Thanks, Lenwin

Hi, Kindly refer the following MSDN article which has more information regarding WPF. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb613588.aspx Could you kindly let us know if you are referring to the above feature. Could you kindly let us know if you would like to install support for WPF 4 or you would like InstallShield Limited Edition's Dialogs to use these enhanced controls. Through InstallShield limited edition it is possible to install Support for WPF 4. If the ".NET 4.0 Client Package is installed" requirement is checked in the requirements view then installation proceeds only if the target operating system has .NET 4.0 Client Package installed. If you wish to install the .Net 4.0 client Profile if it is not installed on the target machine then you may add the .Net 4.0 client Profile as a prerequisite. Thanks, Lenwin

Hi, Many of our customers have the same concern regarding the prerequisites. The way they address this is by testing their installations thoroughly on several machines that closely match the desired target machines. You may start by building a setup that includes all recommended prerequisites, ensure it installs/uninstalls successfully. If the process of installation/uninstallation completes successfully then begin stripping prerequisites out until you arrive at the smallest possible setup that installs reliably on all desired target platforms. You may also review the Microsoft documentation on each prerequisite to verify if it’s required for your specific use case on MSDN. Thanks, Lenwin

Hi, Kindly refer the following article which has more information regarding the Build Error -6109 http://kb.flexerasoftware.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalID=Q109435 Thanks, Lenwin

Hi Marc, Currently the option to add a custom prerequisite is not available in InstallShield Limited Edition InstallShield Premier Edition and InstallShield Professional Edition include the InstallShield Prerequisite Editor, a tool that enables you to define custom InstallShield prerequisites and to edit settings for any existing InstallShield prerequisites. In addition, these editions include a merge module project type, which you can use to create your own merge modules. Thanks, Lenwin

Lenwin · ‎Jul 09, 2010

Symptoms: Build of the InstallShield project fails with Error -6058 when attempting to incorporate standard Microsoft Merge Modules into the installation package. Cause: This problem is due to outdated Global Unique Identifiers used to distinguish 64-bit Merge Modules. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a VC++ Windows Forms Application project. 2. Create an InstallShield Limited Edition project 3. Add the Project Output of the VC++ Windows Forms Application project to the InstallShield Limited Edition project 4. Build the project. Hot Fix: To apply the hot fix, follow the steps below: 1. Close Visual Studio. 2. Download the hot fix .zip file attached to this thread, and uncompress the PlatformFilesToModules.ini file to a temporary location. 3. Locate the folder: \Support. (By default, this directory is “C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2010LE\Support") 4. Make a backup copy of file PlatformFilesToModules.ini 5. Copy the new PlatformFilesToModules.ini file to \Support. 6. Restart Visual Studio.

Hi Marc, Once a new Upgrade path is created we need to ensure that the upgrade code of the previous version installer should be entered in the Upgrade code field. This ensures that when the installation of the current version begins, the windows installer searches the target system for the specified upgrade code. Upon finding a matching upgrade code along with other matching upgrade properties the windows installer upgrades the target system by installing the newer version. Thanks, Lenwin

Hi, Kindly navigate to the location where prerequisites files are downloaded on your computer. Ex: C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2010LE\SetupPrerequisites In this location check if a folder named Report Viewer exists. If it exists then kindly delete this folder. Close the project file (solution) and reopen it. Kindly ensure that the firewall on your computer is turned off. Navigate to the Redistributables view and try downloading the Microsoft Report Viewer 2010 prerequisite again. Kindly check if the prerequisite downloads successfully. Thanks, Lenwin

Lenwin · ‎Jul 08, 2010

Hi Marc, Kindly perform the below steps to create an upgrade and let us know the results. Create a base setup with version number ex: 1.00.0000. When creating an upgrade, kindly change the product code and the Product version Ensure that the Product version of the upgrade is higher than the base version. ex:1.30.0000. In the upgrades paths view, create a new upgrade path. Refer the setup.exe or an msi file of the previous version ex 1.00.0000. If you do not have the setup file of the older version, then kindly ensure that the upgrade code of the new version of the installer is same as that of the older version.Specify appropriate values in the Min version and Max version field for the new upgrade path created. Build the setup. Thanks, Lenwin
