One more thing I'm not getting and maybe this deserves its own thread,
but I've got the following two CA's:
<Custom Action="WebInstaller" After="InstallFiles"
>INSTALLUNINSTALL=INSTALLER</Custom>
<Custom Action="WebUninstall"
After="WebInstaller">INSTALLUNINSTALL=UNINSTALLER</Custom>
In my log I see this line:
MSI (s) (38:84) [13:20:49:941]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying
INSTALLUNINSTALL property. Its current value is 'NOTSET'. Its new value:
'INSTALLER'.
Then this line:
MSI (s) (38:84) [13:20:50:003]: Skipping action: WebInstaller (condition
is false)
How can the condition be false?

I've also discovered that you can use msizap to force remove
uninstallable applications. Msizap comes with the windows platform sdk
and is used like so...
msizap T {product code}
Is using msiexec /fv the preferred method Rob?

1. Build a fixed MSI.
2. Recache/reinstall the fixed MSI over top the busted installed MSI:
msiexec /fv your.msi
3. Repeat 1 & 2 until MSI is fixed enough to happily uninstall.

So I ran my installer and all was well. On my attempt to uninstall,
however,
I run into an error. I understand why I'm getting the error and I'm
pretty
sure I can fix it, but because of it I can't uninstall the app.
Everytime I
try to re-run the installer (after I've made the changes to make sure
the
uninstall will work next time) the changes are not there and I still get
the
error (I checked the verbose log and its like the changes never
happened).
Any ideas to make this app go away so I can start over?
