Installing the same product next to each other

I'm making an installer for a Java server. I'ts possible and often nessesary to install more than 1 server on the same pc.

When installing, the installer ask for the service name etc and checks if the user enters a unique server. That's all working fine.

The problem I have now is that when I've installed 1 server and running the setup again (the same .exe) the installer goes to Maintenance.
And I like him to go to the welcome dialog for installing another server.
I've tried a lot with the GUID's (like changing them) etc. but nothing.

Anyone an idea?

Use a transformed instance.

There is a sample provided under samples.

You can also just copy-paste the code to an existing project - its all in the first code folding block (you will want to customize it a bit, I would think).
