Sjoerd,
I was planning to try out the installers on my Vista machine. The previous version is v5.4.0 installed
Uninstalling it gives the following error: There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
You want specific information, or should i manually remove the C:\Program Files\CWI/MonetDB5
Manually removing won't help unless you also edit the registry.
My guess is that it complains about the uninstall of the ODBC driver. Can you run "C:\Program Files\CWI\MonetDB5\odbcinstall" /Uninstall (I think that is the exact name) manually from a cmd window?
ran this program , which worked. However, uninstalling MonetDB still gives the same error.

Hmm. This is the only program that is run when uninstalling, and if it works when you call it by hand but not from the uninstall process, I don't know what to suggest, except editing the registry which is not something for the faint-of-heart (or foolhardy).
