Howdy! I'm in a rut that I'm trying to break out of.

 

I want to create a user with my .msi file. I have the following:

 

8<--------------------------------------

<Component Id="RequiredUser"
Guid="{7fac0cb7-19c2-4b63-a663-e1363722d27c}">

  <User Id="SomeUser" Name="SomeUserName" Password="supersekrit" />

</Component>

-------------------------------------->8

 

Of course, I get the following response when I try to link everything:

 

C:\SomeProduct\SP\Dist\SP.wxs(461) : error CNDL0005 : The Component
element contains an unexpected child element 'User'.

 

Ok. I'm cool with that. I need to specify the proper Wix*Extension.dll,
right?

 

I'm not sure which Wix*Exension.dll so I decided to try them all with
the following command line:

 

8<--------------------------------------

C:\SomeProduct\SP\Dist>candle -o SP.wixobj SP.wxs  -ext
WixDifxAppExtension.dll -ext WixDirectXExtension.dll -ext
WixFirewallExtension.dll -ext WixGamingExtension.dll -ext
WixIIsExtension.dll -ext WixMsmqExtension.dll -ext WixNetFxExtension.dll
-ext WixPSExtension.dll -ext WixSqlExtension.dll -ext WixUIExtension.dll
-ext WixUtilExtension.dll -ext WixVSExtension.dll

SP.wxs

C:\SomeProduct\SP\Dist\SP.wxs(461) : error CNDL0005 : The Component
element contains an unexpected child element 'User'.

-------------------------------------->8

 

What is the proper command line and extension to use? I've been banging
my head up against this and just want to get this task done so I can
move on to the next WiX related task (creating vdir, AppPool, etc) and
feel that if I get the user created the rest should fall into place.

 

Thanks!
