Thanks a lot, Bob. I tried PFX. It seems working.
Here is my code: <Component Id="Component_CACERT" Guid="..."> <iis:Certificate Id="CACert" Name="cacert.pfx" Request="no" BinaryKey="CACert_pfx" PFXPassword="..." StoreName="root" StoreLocation="localMachine" /> </Component> One more question: is it possible for WiX to install just the public key certificate(for example, .cer file or .p7c file)? The reason for that is, for PFX file, we have to include our private key which we really don't want to do. Just like what our Chief Architect asked me, "is there a way for WiX to support just installing .cer file but not using PFX file?". Or: what's the reason that WiX only supports PFX file? I'd ask the same question. If WiX doesn't support it right now, is there a plan that WiX will support installing .cer or .p7c file in future release? Any answers are appreciated. Thanks. /Brian ________________________________ From: Bob Arnson <b...@joyofsetup.com> To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Monday, March 2, 2009 5:51:12 PM Subject: Re: [WiX-users] WiX 3.0: How to install a Root Certificate Brian Young wrote: > InstallCertificates: Error 0x8000ffff: Unexpected certificate type read from > disk. > InstallCertificates: Error 0x8000ffff: Failed to read certificate from file > path. > InstallCertificates: Error 0x8000ffff: Failed to resolve certificate: MyCert > I'm not an expert in the cert code but it looks like only PFX is supported. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users __________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
