I have a web site in IIS6 that use Enterprise Library for logging and this locks its log file while the application is running. As part of my uninstall I want to clean up the log file using the RemoveFile element. The problem is that Windows Installer reports that the file is in use and won't continue (1603 error is returned).
Has anyone successfully stopped an application pool to release files that are in use? I tried writing a simple vbscript custom action but although the app pool is stopped the file is still in use (manually stopping the app pool before running the uninstall works ok)? I have tried scheduling it at various points without any luck. Does anyone have any tips to solve this?
