Error: Microsoft.Crm.Setup.Server.PublishDefaultDataAction

When you have uninstalled CRM and try to install this again, you might run into the following error message:

Microsoft.Crm.Setup.Server.PublishDefaultDataAction failed --->System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'Void Microsoft.Crm.CrmCache`1.RemoveEntry(System.String)'.

This is being caused by the fact that you have other components of CRM still installed from the previous installation. Make sure you remove all components including the SSRS connector, the Outlook client and the E-mail router. That should help you fix the problem.

Kudos go out to my colleague Alex Ries who found this solution.

For reference purposes the exact log message (can be found in %\AppData\Microsoft\MSCRM\Logs).
