Installer Class Not Calling Overridden Uninstall Method when Multi Instance enabled
Hi Team,
I am installing my product with multiple instances enabled. Lets consider the below installation sequence.
1. Install base Instance ( Run the setup very first time)
2. Install First Instance
3. Install Second Instance
When I try to uninstall the Second Instance, Overridden Uninstall Method is not firing. Same problem for uninstall the first Instance also.
But when I try to uninstall the base Instance , Overridden Uninstall Method is firing as expected.
Is there any setting i need to update to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Ramesh P.

What I mean for "Base Instance" is, Run and install the setup first time. When we run the same setup next time , i refers it as first instance. If we run the same setup next time , i refers it as second instance. Please let us know if you need further information.
Thanks, Ramesh.P

Do you have separate 'ProductCode' Values for each instance?
Please describe the " Overridden Uninstall Method" that you speak of. Is this a custom action? Properly done, there should not be no need for separate uninstall behavior.
