Hi,

I am getting error 1638 (Another version of the prodict is already installed) when trying to update my installation. I am using InstallShield Developer 7.04 and I am using setup flags: REINSTALLMODE=voums REINSTALL=ALL.

Product and Upgrade codes are identical for the old and new setup, the package code and version differs. The update setup was trimmed down in size a little bit by using release flags to filter out some features.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Bernd

Are you setting REINSTALLMODE in setup.ini or on the comamnd line? (this should work) Or in the property table (this will NOT work)

Stefan,

I am setting the option in the release view in ISD 7.04 in the field "MSI Command line options". I am building a single executable. If I look at the extracted files I see the settings in set setup.ini file.

Regards,

Bernd

Very strange - this should work.
Did you try an uncompressed CD-ROM build for testing purposes?
