I am using WIX 3.0.4617.0 The upgrade doesn't remove the identity. The application pool uses a logon which cannot be removed by uninstalling the application. I specifically set the logon to be RemoveOnUninstall="no", hence I am sure that the logon (identity) exists when reinstalling the application pool.
When I manually set the identity using the IIS Manager I can see that the correct identity is set, but nevertheless I need to set it again in order to start the application pool.
