I'm using Installshield Developer 8(with SP1) to create my installer. Now i'm creating installer for a slightly modified version of my old application. My objective is to have both the versions on the same machines with out any clash. I modified Product code, Product name.

I could install the new version on top of old version with out any problem but i could not install the old version on top the new version, it is displaying an error "Error:1316 A network error occured while attempting to read from the file C:\ABC\xxx.msi"

How can i have Coexisting installations of both original and updated products on the same system?

Did you also change the PackageCode and ideally also the msi file name?
