Hello. There is a problem with updating software from GPO.
What I do:
1. gpo -> assigned to computer -> "Software Installation" set a "new package" (.msi with my_program)
2. reboot destination computer. my_program installs correctly.
3. gpo -> assigned to computer -> "Software Installation" set a "new package" (.msi with my_program_update)
then set "package can upgrade over the existing package"
4. reboot destination computer. my_program_update installs correctly.
5. here is a problem
when i assign this policy (with 2 packages, my_program.msi and my_program_update.msi) to another clear computer2, only my_program_update.msi installs, my_program.msi do not installs.
in application event viewer on computer2 there is no any events about my_program.msi
so, the questions are
1. is it a feature or what?
2. i need to install my_program on many comps in domain, and regularly update it. is "msi & gpo" the right way?
