Uninstall IIS

Good afternoon,

We have an app that used to use IIS for the web site hosting. The older installers handled setting up IIS to host our site with no problem.

The newest version of our app does its own web site hosting, and the installer works fine when it's a new machine. But we want the installer to 'uninstall' the old web site within IIS, if it's there when we upgrade an existing installation.

I haven't yet figure out how to do this...any suggestions?

I'm using Advanced Installer 14.5.2.

Thank you!
Alfie

Re: Uninstall IIS

Hello Alfie,

Please note that the web site should be uninstalled during the old version removal operation triggered by the product upgrade installation. You should just make sure that the new and old setup product use the same UpgradeCode.

You can check this from "Product Information -> Product Details" tab.

Let us know if this helped.

All the best,
Daniel
