I know it's weried, maybe I did something wrong, but I don't know so far.
Now the error is gone, but the change of parameters value remains, weired!
I am using the first method (Upgrading by reinstalling)of www.installsite.org/files/iswi/Upgrading.html, what we want is that the user won't get any prompt (even there is a previous version or the same version isntalled), and each time the setup will run for install. I implemented this by putting "REINSTALLMODE=voums REINSTALL=ALL" into setup.ini file or from commandline. But if I add them into either Property table using Orca or into Property Manager, the install won't work, if there is one version installed, it will prompt to the user saying 'There is a version.....' and asked user to remove it.
My question is: why they behave differently when put in setup.ini file or commandline and in Property table or in Preperty Manager? I expect they show the same behavior since both just pass/set the properties for the package.
In the paper, it also says Network-Image/Compress-all-files won't work for the method, why is that? My test showed that with this combination, it behave the same as Network-Image/Uncompress combination - the install run without prompting users if the parameters are passed through commandline (via msiexec.exe, here we don't have setup.* at all), but it will prompt users if they are passed in through Property table or Property Manager.
My feeling is that Property or Property Manager has something conflicting with the parameters, or interact with them, so they are not working properly. Is that right? But I don't know what that is and how to fix it.
