Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How would I register a COM+ serviceusing Wix(DCOMCNFG) Phil, Thanks for the info. I'll give this a try but let me ask. When you say COM+ is this going to appear under the COM+ Applications folder or under the DCOM Config Folder?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How would I register a COM+ serviceusing Wix(DCOMCNFG) I use something like this to create a COM+ app... I think my need for CreateFolder comes from something else in my wxs that I haven't had time to work out, but I found that I needed it for my situation. This works for me,....using Wix 3.0.4603 At the top of your wxs file... include... xmlns:complus ="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/ComPlusExtension"; as part of the <Wix......> tag so you have something similar to this: <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; xmlns:complus ="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/ComPlusExtension";> You'll need a reference to the ComPlusExtension Then you can add something like this as a component. <Component Id="xxxxx" Guid="xxxxx" Directory="Folder1"> <CreateFolder/> <complus:ComPlusApplication Id="MyComPlusApp" Name="NameYouWantToSeeInComPlusManager" ApplicationAccessChecksEnabled="no" Identity="WindowsUserName" Password="SuperSecretPassword"> <complus:ComPlusAssembly Id="MyComPlusAssm" Type="native" DllPath="[FileIdOfTheDll]"> <complus:ComPlusComponent Id="MyComPlusComponent" CLSID="GUIDMojo" /> </complus:ComPlusAssembly> </complus:ComPlusApplication> </Component> -----Original Message----- From: MacDiarmid, James D [mailto:james.macdiar...@eds.com] Sent: Monday, April 27, 2009 10:45 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
