It would be great to have this functionality. It does
require a CustomAction. The CustomAction probably wouldn’t be that hard
to add to the existing server CustomAction code. It’d be really
nice if someone signed the assignment agreement and provided that functionality
back to the community.

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
Hello!
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
