Hi All,


I have MSI Basic Project to generate for my application and it generate msi setup file. According to user requirement, I have to change my setup file to automatically remove previous setup version and install new version.
I already define Major Upgrade and pointed to previous version but it keep on showing me "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel".


Pls help me how to configure it.

Thanks & Regards,
Phyoe

Hi,

Did you check if there is any entry present in "Upgrade" Table under "Direct Editor".
An entry for Major Upgrade will be present if you have created a Major Upgrade Item in Media->Upgrade->Upgrade Windows Installer Setup

If you see that error message this indicates that you didn't change the ProductCode.
