[wix-users] MSMQ Extensions

Hi, I'm looking at replacing a whole bunch of our custom action code with the built in MSMQ extensions and have run into a couple of issues.


While it all seems to work when installing on a clean machine, I was testing some uninstall scenarios and ran into issues:


Permissions, if a permission is created on an msmq queue by the installer (just a simple local user) and then removed when the installer attempts to uninstall, it fails and rolls back on permission removal.


If a queue installed by the installer is deleted prior to the uninstall, the uninstall fails.


For both of these I'd expect the installer to detect that there is nothing to delete and move on, not fail and roll back.


Has anyone else run into these issues, found a way around them?


Cheers,


Stephen.
