Most likely your code is crashing, the custom action, if the subject line is the issue. That part of the log would have been more useful. that something about Win64. My guess is that you have an uninstall custom action which assumes that the properties you are using (SERVERNAME, DATABASENAME) are preserved somewhere. They are not. It might be that you don't want to run that custom action at uninstall time, if so you need a condition on the custom action, perhaps something like Not Installed, so it runs only at install time.
