Hello WiX Users,
I am trying to find documentation regarding how I can use WiX to register a
custom developed managed module for an IIS 7 web site. I am using WiX 3.5 for
this installation.
I have successfully registered the module by hand but I would like to use WiX
to automate the process. The rough steps include:
S1. Install the managed module into the Global Assembly Cache.
S2. Add the managed module for compilation within the IIS web site.
S3. Add the managed module to the IIS web site.
S4. Restart any dependent application pools (only required during an upgrade as
the managed module needs to be reloaded).
By hand, Step 2 involves adding the following section to the web site's
web.config file:
<system.web>
<compilation debug="false">
<assemblies>
<add assembly="MyCompany.MyProduct, Version=1.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=1111111111111111" />
</assemblies>
</compilation>
</system.web>
By hand, Step 3 involves adding the following section to the
<system.webServer>
<modules>
<add name="MyModule" type="MyCompany.MyProduct.MyModule,
MyCompany.MyProduct, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=1111111111111111" />
</modules>
</system.webServer>
Q1. I have been unable to find out how to do Steps 2,3, and 4 via WiX. It
seems that I could use the XML utility functions for Step 2 and 3, but is there
a better way?
Q2. If I use the XML utility functions, will the changes be automatically
reverted during an uninstall?
Q3. Finally, how do I restart an application pool using WiX?
Thanks!!
