I am using Wix 3.6 (and have tried this in Wix 3.5) to install a Web
application to IIS 7 and the install works correctly but when
uninstalling the application either with Add/Remove Programs or with
MSIExec I get the following error in IIS.
There was an error while performing this operation. Details: The
application '/' does not exist.
The error in System log is as follows.
Site 1 has no root application defined, so the site will be ignored.
The log file on uninstall when using MSIExec and the /qb option shows
just this one error and it doesnt seem like it could cause this type
of problem where the Default Web Site directory in IIS becomes corrupt
but perhaps it can.
Action start 7:04:40: ExitDialog. DEBUG: Error 2726: Action not found:
ExitDialog The installer has encountered an unexpected error
installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this
package. The error code is 2726. The arguments are: ExitDialog, ,
Action ended 7:04:40: ExitDialog. Return value 0. Action ended
7:04:40: INSTALL. Return value 1.
Here is the relevant portion of the wix file. If anyone has any ideas
that can point me in the right direction they will be greatly
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
