Anybody? Any hint?
I failed to find anything suspicious in the verbose log. 

As far as I can see from the source code, the rollback action should
restore the IIS metabase from the latest restore point and then drop it.
I can see such restore points get created on install, but they remain
after rollback is finished.

Do you have any idea of what to look at to find out the reason of such
behavior?

Thank you.

Subject: [WiX-users] IIS Rollback action deletes all websites

Hello WiX developers,

I have a serious problem which seems like a bug in IIS extension to me. 

I have an installation which can install multiple instances, let's say,
2 for simplicity. Each one installs a web site in IIS 6. So, Instance1
installs WebSite1, Instance2 installs WebSite2. 
The components containing these sites are fully
"multiple-instance-aware", that is have different GUIDs, write to the
independent registry keys, don't contain shared resources, etc.
This can be proven by the fact that Instance1 uninstalls WebSite1
correctly, and Instance2 uninstalls WebSite2.

BUT, if Instance1 is installed, and Instance2 fails during the
installation and rolls back, that rollback operation REMOVES BOTH SITES,
WebSite1 and WebSite2. It seems that it just picks up an incorrect IIS
restore point for that rollback.

Could anyone please confirm it is a bug or point me to what is wrong
otherwise?

I would really appreciate your response. Please, help.
Thanks.

P.S. It is reproduced for both 3.0.4805.0 and the latest 3.0.4930.0.
