How to Handle Removing Virtual Directory while Uninstallation

Question

Hi,
I have an MSI set up for an application, which is created using NAnt.
This set up creates SSIS packages on the SQL server and also creates a virtual directory on the IIS.

While uninstalling the program it does not delete both of these.

What can I do to delete the Virtual Directory from ISS and remove the SSIS packages while uninstalling the product?

Is that something that I can do on the NAnt build script? Or do I need to do this on the C# Installer Project

Many thanks
Deeps

Thanks for coming back on this so quickly. But where/how can I add a custom action for uninstalling on a NAnt script? Or do I need to add this on the Installer Project (Visual Studio C#)?

You can perform this procedure by using the user interface (UI), by running Appcmd.exe commands in a command-line window, by editing configuration files directly,
or by writing WMI scripts. please go through below link

Sorry, But I am not getting it. My challenge is while uninstalling the product it should remove the SSIS packages created on SQL Server and the Virtual Directory created in IIS.

Will I do that in the build script of NAnt or the C# Installer Project? What I need to do to handle this situation?
