Did anyone answer your question? I have the same
question. It would be great to have a test connection box in the UI but I
am not sure how to perform the code in standard wix. Probably have to
create a custom action.

Subject: [WiX-users] Check if connection string to database is valid
I have an installation that installs a client, which needs a database (on SQL Server) to be operational. So, one of the data that user must enter is the connection string to this database. This connection string is than written in config.file and a client use this connection string to connect to database. The problem is if user enters wrong connection string or database don't even exists.
Is it possible that when user enters a connection string on a dialog, the installation script checks if connection string is valid (if database exists)?
Is it possible to check if connection string is valid when user click Next on a dialog?
Thanks,
Voranc
