Checking for Conflicts Using the Conflict Wizard
The Conflict Wizard can be used to identify conflicts between an external Windows Installer package and ones
already in the Application Catalog, or between one or more packages in the Application Catalog.
Identifying Conflicts with an External Package
The ConflictSolver Wizard allows you to run conflict checks against external MSI packages and packages imported
into the ConflictSolver Application Catalog Database. ConflictSolver supports external package conflict checking
for User Defined Custom/Source Only Packages ACEs. The Source package can be selected from the
ConflictSolver Application Catalog Database or from an external MSI package. See
Only Packages ACE
However, ConflictSolver does not support external package conflict checking for Custom/Source and Target
Packages ACEs. Both the Source and Target Packages must be selected from the ConflictSolver Application
Catalog Database.
Task: To identify conflicts between an external Windows Installer package and packages already in the
Application Catalog:
1. Select Conflict Wizard from the Conflicts menu. The Welcome Panel opens.
2. Click Next. The Source Type Panel opens.
3. Select Windows Installer package. Click Next. The MSI Source Information Panel opens.
4. Click Browse to locate the MSI file you want to check against packages in the Application Catalog.
