Uninstaller errors out with weird errors/stack traces

Hi,
In my IA project's uninstaller, I try to uninstall few folders, files, speedfolders, and registry entries.
But, for some reason my unsintaller is bailing out with weird errors.

I am attaching log file to the thread as an attachment.

Concerns I have are:
1. sea_lock error message
2. incomprehensible stack traces
3. some of the normal folders, and speed folders are not getting removed

Any help from you folks will be very much appreciated.

Regards,

The sea_loc error message I've seen it before, I think I too have it everytime I uninstall I think it's safe to be ignored (in my case everything is uninstalled).

On the other hand this error is much more interesting:

"ExecuteUninstallCommand:rmdir /s /q C:\Program
Files\Quova\GeoDirectory_new\resource

StdErr Output: rmdir: /s: No such file or directory
rmdir: /q: No such file or directory
rmdir: C:\Program: No such file or directory
rmdir: Files\Quova\GeoDirectory_new\resource: No such file or directory"

It looks to me like you have missed some quotes. I think your command should look something like:

CMD /C RD /S /Q "$USER_INSTALL_DIR$$/$tmp$/$"

Should work better! ๐Ÿ™‚

And for the exceptions unfortunately, as they're obfuscated only someone from Macrovision could tell you what it is all about. But normally the user won't see them (and personally I think they're like the sea_loc "error" i.e. benign).
