[wix-users] error LGHT0204: ICE61: Upgrade.VersionMax cannot be less than Upgrade.VersionMin

[David Connet]

According to MSDN, MSI versioning is 255.255.65535 (and doesn't use the 4th)
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370859(v=vs.85).aspx

2015 > 255, hence error.

Of course the version number on a file is different.

Although the error messages says that a product major greater than 127 is supported, that has never been my experience.  I have treated version numbers for C++ and MSI as signed byte, byte, word, signed word.  That works out to 0-127, 0-255, 0-65535, 0-32767.

But, going with the error message I recently saw when one of my developers tried to assign 2015.1.x.0 to an installer, it is a bug.  Not seen it myself, but this should be a supported version number not withstanding my earlier comments.
