I'm not sure, but maybe it's trying to compare the property INSTALLUNINSTALL to the (nonexistent) property INSTALLER?
Maybe you need INSTALLUNINSTALL="INSTALLER" -----Original Message----- From: Alex Steen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 04, 2007 2:26 PM To: Rowland, Chris; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Stuck with an uninstall that doesn't work? One more thing I'm not getting and maybe this deserves its own thread, but I've got the following two CA's: <Custom Action="WebInstaller" After="InstallFiles" >INSTALLUNINSTALL=INSTALLER</Custom> <Custom Action="WebUninstall" After="WebInstaller">INSTALLUNINSTALL=UNINSTALLER</Custom> In my log I see this line: MSI (s) (38:84) [13:20:49:941]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying INSTALLUNINSTALL property. Its current value is 'NOTSET'. Its new value: 'INSTALLER'. Then this line: MSI (s) (38:84) [13:20:50:003]: Skipping action: WebInstaller (condition is false) How can the condition be false? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 04, 2007 1:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Alex Steen; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Stuck with an uninstall that doesn't work? I've also discovered that you can use msizap to force remove uninstallable applications. Msizap comes with the windows platform sdk and is used like so... msizap T {product code} Is using msiexec /fv the preferred method Rob? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob Mensching Sent: Friday, May 04, 2007 2:05 PM To: JCWrs; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Stuck with an uninstall that doesn't work? 1. Build a fixed MSI. 2. Recache/reinstall the fixed MSI over top the busted installed MSI: msiexec /fv your.msi 3. Repeat 1 & 2 until MSI is fixed enough to happily uninstall. <smile/> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JCWrs Sent: Friday, May 04, 2007 11:03 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Stuck with an uninstall that doesn't work? So I ran my installer and all was well. On my attempt to uninstall, however, I run into an error. I understand why I'm getting the error and I'm pretty sure I can fix it, but because of it I can't uninstall the app. Everytime I try to re-run the installer (after I've made the changes to make sure the uninstall will work next time) the changes are not there and I still get the error (I checked the verbose log and its like the changes never happened). Any ideas to make this app go away so I can start over? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Stuck-with-an-uninstall-that-doesn%27t-work--tf369 3395.html#a10327330 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
