[wix-users] Consolidated Upgrade Version

[Tyler Gustafson]

That's how patches work out of the box. You shouldn't have to install 15.0.1 or 15.0.2 if you want to go from 15.0.0 to 15.0.3 you should be able to just install 15.0.3. Have you tested this to see if it works? If not, what sort of error message or failure indication are you seeing?

Subject: [wix-users] Consolidated Upgrade Version

Hi All,

                We have a product which is in "15.0" version.  I've a WiX Installer project for releasing my patches. We've successfully released the minor versions of the product using this WiX project as a MSI file, viz. "15.0.1", "15.0.2" & "15.0.3". All is well, so far. Also, the latest version of the patch is "15.0.3", which will be most likely the last version.

                Now, if a customer wants to have the latest 15.0.3, we've to upgrade them to 15.0.1 & then to 15.0.2 & then to 15.0.3. This is done by running each version of the installers, in this case 3 installers.

My question is, Is there a way to consolidate the patches so that I end up installing only the consolidated patch instead of 3 patch installers? I would also like to know if there is a consolidation concept in the WiX installer world.

I hope, I've tried my best to describe my requirement. Please let me know, if you want any clarification on the same.

Regards,
Ravi
