OpenOffice.org 3.4
Please note, that if you encounter any errors stating that you should use setup.exe, you could use [http://www.instedit.com/ InstEd (free msi editor)] in order to remove the check (search for '''SETUP_USED''') and remove the row. After this the installation continues as usual.
 
Additional notes:
This error can be avoided by adding '''SETUP_USED=1''' to msi paramters.
 
Quickstarter should be terminated before installing or upgrading:
 
<source lang="xml">
<install cmd="taskkill /F /IM soffice.exe">
<exit code="any" />
</install>
<install cmd="taskkill /F /IM soffice.bin">
<exit code="any" />
</install>
 
<upgrade cmd="taskkill /F /IM soffice.exe">
<exit code="any" />
</upgrade>
<upgrade cmd="taskkill /F /IM soffice.bin">
<exit code="any" />
</upgrade>
 
</source>
 
It seems that the [https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119802 installer has a bug] when upgrading an existing OpenOffice installation. A simple workaround is to rename an existing "program" subfolder first and delete it after installation:
 
Before install/upgrade command:
<source lang="xml">
<upgrade architecture="x86" cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist "%PROGRAMFILES%\OpenOffice.org 3\program" ren "%PROGRAMFILES%\OpenOffice.org 3\program" "program.old"' />
<upgrade architecture="x64" cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist "%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\OpenOffice.org 3\program" ren "%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\OpenOffice.org 3\program" "program.old"' />
</source>
 
After install/upgrade command:
<source lang="xml">
<upgrade architecture="x86" cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist "%PROGRAMFILES%\OpenOffice.org 3\program.old" rd /S /Q "%PROGRAMFILES%\OpenOffice.org 3\program.old"' />
<upgrade architecture="x64" cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist "%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\OpenOffice.org 3\program.old" rd /S /Q "%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\OpenOffice.org 3\program.old"' />
 
</source>
