Re-merge a forked installation
Taking over for another Release Engineer and am stuck....he was uneducated and create a seperate full and upgrade version of our install. How do I get back to a single install?
The Tool 1.0.msi
The Tool 1.1.msi
Package Code: same as 1.0, but shouldn't have been
Product Code: same as 1.0, correct
Upgrade COde: same as 1.0, correct
The Tool 1.1 Upgrade.msi
Package Code: unique
Product Code: unique
Upgrade COde: unique
- MSI file names contain versions
- I'm fairly sure I'm correct in thinking the previous Release Engineer should NOT have forked and created a seperate "upgrade" version of the application, but am unsure how to proceed.
- THe Installshield .ISM for The Tool 1.1.msi is gone.
- LAN deployment only.
How do I get back to a single MSI for 1.2 and beyond?
-The Tool.MSI (handling both new and upgrades) -- remove version from filename
-Not sure how to handle the two different upgrade codes that exist for my install base. Some users have 1.0 and 1.1 upgrade; whereas others have 1.1
Thanks for any guidance you can provide.
