As for me, the best way to get the major and minor versions of IIS is to reference the properties introduced by standard IIS extension: <PropertyRef Id="IISMAJORVERSION" /> <PropertyRef Id="IISMINORVERSION" />
Note, that the values are prefixed with the '#' sign. Thus, for IIS 5.1 (WinXP) it is IISMAJORVERSION="#5" and IISMINORVERSION="#1". Probably, the presence of MSSQL and its version can be detected by this registry key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer\CurrentVersion, the value 'CurrentVersion'. Furthermore, the following article gives more recommendations regarding editions, etc. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321185 Hope this helps. -- Yan -----Original Message----- From: Peter Oehlert [mailto:poehl...@securityinnovation.com] Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 7:12 PM To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.' Subject: [WiX-users] Checking for IIS and SQL? This isn't strictly wix related but more a general setup question: Is anyone aware of a robust check to see that SQL Server (2005, express, std, or ent) and IIS (6, 7 + compatibility components) are installed? Any help would be appreciated.
