The obvious question to ask is whether the MSI file actually is there at that location, which seems an odd location (it's where cached MSIs are). If it is there, it had better be the same package and product code as the original install, that's a requirement. Also check the permissions to that directory for the system account.
Finally, there is usually no need to find the original MSI to perform an uninstall. The log shows a ResolveSource, which is what's causing that, but not the reason for it, which may be earlier in the log. Maybe you have an explicit unconditional ResolveSource in your MSI, which will cause all MSI actions to go find the original source MSI file. --------------- Phil Wilson On Wed, Nov 12, 2014 at 3:17 AM, Mohamed Yasir <yasirmohame...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I have created two msi file (sample1 & sample2) using wix toolset3.8. > > While uninstalling msi through wix custom bootstrapper,it shows an below > error. > > MSI (s) (20:94) [01:01:37:045]: Resolving source to launched-from source. > MSI (s) (20:94) [01:01:37:045]: Setting launched-from source as last-used. > MSI (s) (20:94) [01:01:37:045]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding SourceDir property. > Its value is 'C:\windows\Installer\'. > MSI (s) (20:94) [01:01:37:045]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding SOURCEDIR property. > Its value is 'C:\windows\Installer\'. > MSI (s) (20:94) [01:01:37:045]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding SourcedirProduct > property.
