0. I was not intimately involved with the NGen development
so if I sound like I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't and I'm sorry. 1. Verbose log of the failed uninstall should show much more
detail. 2. Not sure. It looks like install and uninstall use
the same entry point so they must be the same return value checking. We could
create different entry points and modify the CustomAction. I'll bounce
this off K and see what he thinks (since he wrote that part). 3. Unfortunately in WiX v2, you have to actually modify the
.wixlib. In WiX v3 the condition could be overridden but I think you'd
need to modify the .wixlib. Really this sounds more like a bug
issue. Can you open a bug on Source Forge to track it and I'll ping K
right away. From:

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy
Kuhne I’m using this element in WiX 2.0. For the most
part it’s been fine, but with internal product builds I’ve had a
few users hit a failure with uninstall where ngen returns that the assembly has
already been uninstalled. This causes uninstalls to fail.
I haven’t been able to get repro steps. I’m
left with a few questions: 1.
Any suggestions on potential reasons for this or how I
might track it down? 2.
Why fail at all on uninstall with ngen? 3.
Is it possible for me to override the custom action
info for the extension in WiX? (ie- to ignore failures) My big concern is that we get inundated with support calls to
help uninstall the application- I don’t know of an easy way to skip
extension actions with WiX (see the above #3). Thanks, -Jeremy |
