I think you can do this by setting the WebVirtualDir/@Alias to "2010/07/19" and remove the nested vdirs.
Neil -----Original Message----- From: Rob Jarratt (MCS UK) [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 19 July 2010 17:59 To: [email protected] Subject: [WiX-users] Folders in wwwroot with the internet icon I am using the IIS extensions to create a Vdir in IIS 6. The trouble is I need the vdir to be in a folder path like this: Contoso.com/name/2010/07/19 And only the last directory (19) should be the actual vir. To get a path like that though I have to make the higher directories vdirs too, like this: <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="ServiceVdir" WebSite="DefaultWebSite" Directory="ServiceDirectory" Alias="$(var.ServiceName)"> <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="YearVdir" Directory="YearDirectory" Alias="$(var.Year)"> <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="MonthVdir" Directory="MonthDirectory" Alias="$(var.Month)"> <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="DayVdir" Directory="INSTALLLOCATION" Alias="$(var.Day)"> Is there a way to specify a path like this but with the higher directories just treated as folders (without the vdir icon)? I tried just removing the upper vdirs and leaving just the last one but it creates a web app at contoso.com/19. I can't put "/" in the alias as that is not allowed. I have not been able to use the WebDir element for this because I can't put a vdir inside it. The reason I need to do this is that I also have another web app at Contoso.com/name/2010/07/09 and when I uninstall the new app(with vdir 19) it removes the web app from the old one at 09 too. Any suggestions? Thanks Rob Robert Jarratt Senior Consultant Microsoft Consulting Services Microsoft Ltd.
