RE: [Nant-users] Removing files on uninstallation.

This is my problem I have to following lines in the <msi> task.

 

                <component name="IVRService_Files" id="{FDDB850E-8DE2-491C-8CE5-997D84162A6A}" attr="2" directory="IVRServiceRootFolder"  keepsubdirs="true" feature="IVRWebServiceFeature">

                    <key file="IVRService.asmx" />

                    <fileset basedir="${build.dir}/IVRService">

                        <include name="bin/**" />

                        <include name="Global.asax" />

                        <include name="Global.asax.cs" />

                        <include name="Global.asax.resx" />

                        <include name="IVRService.asmx" />

                        <include name="IVRService.asmx.cs" />

                        <include name="IVRService.asmx.resx" />

                        <include name="AssemblyInfo.cs" />

                        <include name="Web.Config" />

                    </fileset>

                </component>

 

The problem is that these files are not being removed. Are you saying that the ‘name’ attribute needs to have a registry style GUID or that I need to split this out and assign a component id for each of the files, or both?

 

Thank you. This is the closest that I have come to getting this resolved.

We ran into the same situation, and discovered that you need to have the component id use a registry style GUID, otherwise the file doesn't get uninstalled.

 

Also, something to be aware of, make sure you use MSI guidelines for merge module id's http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url="">  or else 3rd party packages like wise or installshield won't pick up your module names and descriptions properly.

I get some files removed but not all. I have not heard how to ensure that files are removed on uninstallation.

      When I uninstall my msi that was created using the <msi> and

<msm> tasks, nothing gets uninstalled.  Is this a known issue, or might

I be doing something obvious wrong?
