I am trying to create a domain user under Active Directory. Here is the
snippet from my Wix source:
<DirectoryRef Id="INSTALLDIR">
<Component Id="CreateUserComponent" DiskId="1"
Guid="MY_GUID_-GOES-HERE-0000-000000000000">
<User Id='SqlUserID' Name='[MYUSERID]'
Password='[MYUSERPASSWORD]' CreateUser='yes' Domain='[USERDOMAIN]'>
<GroupRef Id='MyUsersGroup' />
</User>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
<Group Id="SqlServicesUsersGroup" Name="[MYUSERGROUP]"/>
The properties are properly gathered from a dialog. I specify
"sqlserver" for MYUSERID. I specify the "Everyone" group for
MYUSERGROUP. The domain is correct. I run the MSI while logged in as a
domain administrator. I get the following error message which tells me
that the installer is attempting to locate the group on my local machine
rather than on the domain. How do I qualify the group so that Windows
Installer looks for it on the domain?
Action 11:02:33: CreateUser.
