Hi-
I started using the following build:
Votive - Windows Installer XML (WiX) Toolset, Version 3.0.3509.0
The Website installation issue of properties in the wrong section seems to be
resolved (I need to do further testing, but after 20-30 installs, I have yet to
get it to fail). The AppPool is still an issue in that I am passing it a User
account with a Username/password but it is not installing the Username/Password
into the AppPool Identity.
I've included my code below for that and hopefully I'm just doing something
wrong. If not, and it is a bug, let me know and I'll file a report.
Thanks
Pierson

That WiX v3 build is about 6 months old. If you're going to be using WiX
v3, you really should be picking up a new build at least monthly. It is
very likely that this issue is already fixed. If you find that the
latest build reproduces the problem, please do open a bug.
