Re: [WiX-users] Adding records to MSI on the fly
To get the installation to work you will need to specify the port aswell. To do this use a property: WebSite Id=DefaultWebSite Description=[TARGETWEBCOMBO] WebAddress Id=AllUnassigned Port=[TARGETWEBPORT] / /WebSite To get the port of the selected site should be easy when you use this: '=== ' This function populates the MSI properties of the specified website '=== Function PopulateMSIWebSiteProperties() Dim oIIS, oSite, r ' allow errors On Error Resume Next ' instanciate the IIS object Set oIIS = GetObject(IIS://localhost/W3SVC) ' check if an error occurred: if an error occurs pass the error number back to setup If Err.Number 0 Then MsgBox Unable to open IIS W3SVC Root object - please ensure that IIS is running vbCrLf _ - Error Details: Err.Description [Number: Hex(Err.Number) ], vbCritical, Error PopulateMSIWebSiteProperties = ERROR_INSTALL_FAILURE Exit Function Else ' iterate through the sites For Each oSite in oIIS If oSite.Class = IIsWebServer Then ' if the description is the same as the specified description, get the details if oSite.ServerComment = Session.Property(TARGETWEBCOMBO)then 'get the properties of the site For Each item in oSite.ServerBindings strServerBinding = item BindingArray = Split(strServerBinding, :, -1, 1) Session.Property(TARGETWEBPORT) = BindingArray(1) ' only do it for the first serverbinding (there may be more than 1) Exit For Next End If End If Next 'return success to MSI PopulateMSIWebSiteProperties = ERROR_SUCCESS End If 'clean up Set oIIS = Nothing End Function Matthew Rowan wrote: I am trying to allow users to select which WebSite they wish to install a virtual directory under. I have used the method describe here which gives me the list however the virtual directory is still installed under the default web site since the port of the Web Address is the same. This is my declaration of the web site as is stated in the WiX help. Nesting WebSite under Product, Fragment, or Module results in a web site locator record being created in the IIsWebSite table. This means that the web site itself is neither installed nor uninstalled by the MSI package. It does make the database available for referencing from a WebApplication, WebVirtualDir or WebDir record. This allows an MSI to install WebApplications, WebVirtualDirs or WebDirs to already existing web sites on the machine. The install will fail if the web site does not exist in these cases.

Re: [WiX-users] Votive under VS2005 reports This installation is forbidden by system policy when running as LUA
Validation (which is executed by default) starts up the Windows Installer engine. If you have the Windows Installer engine disabled, validation will always fail. You'd want to suppress validation (-sval) or allow the Windows Installer engine to run. Of course, validation can catch some errors in your MSI so I recommend leaving it on. Mangaged in this case means administrator said it was okay to run this MSI on your machine.

[WiX-users] Uninstall States, RemoveFiles, and customactions
I have a driver within my installer that is updated much less often than the application itself. The driver requires a CA for installation and uninstallation. It also has a couple of RemoveFile elements I would prefer that the CA's not be executed when upgrading the application, but rather only when the containing _component_ is upgraded. What I'm looking for, I think, is the component level analog of the UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE Property. Is this available anywhere, or is there a different strategy I could use?

Re: [WiX-users] Error when trying to conditionally run something (2753)
Not marked for installation means that the custom action can't run because the target file isn't going to be installed. That could be a consequence of your feature/component arrangement, although sometimes you get it if there is an existing file of an equal or higher version so the one in your package isn't going to be installed. If you run the file from the Binary table the error should go away, or put it in a hidden feature that's always installed.

Re: [WiX-users] WiX COM+ help
The answer to that is unfortunately that it is currently not supported. In order the run the application under the Network Service account it needs to also run as a service, and that cannot be set in the current version of the COM+ CA's. I believe there is a feature request of a bug open at SF about this already so you are not the first one to notice. But so far I haven't had the opportunity to implement it.
