Another option is to use the wix CAQuietExec to invoke the appcmd. This way you
don't have to make your own full blown CA.
<CustomAction Id="TurnOff32BitApps" BinaryKey="WixCA"
DllEntry="CAQuietExec" Execute="deferred" Return="check" Impersonate="no" />
<CustomAction Id="PropertyAssignTurnOff32BitApps"
Property="TurnOff32BitApps" Value='"[SystemFolder]inetsrv\appcmd" set apppool
/apppool.name:"[AppPoolName]" /enable32BitAppOnWin64:false' />
<Custom Action="PropertyAssignTurnOff32BitApps"
Before="TurnOff32BitApps" />
<Custom Action="TurnOff32BitApps" Before="InstallFinalize">
<![CDATA[NOT Installed AND VersionNT64 >= 600]]>
</Custom>
This is for the enable32BitAppOnWin64 but the concept applies to any of the iis
setting Wix can't do by default.

I also had to create a new custom action for IIS, setting the
enable32BitAppOnWin64 true or false based on the bitness of the OS, if your WIX
installer was a 32 bit installer it would ALWAYS set this to true.
There are 2 C# functions, one to set the enable32BitAppOnWin64 and the other to
determine the bitness of the OS.
I would call this custom action:
<CustomAction Id="CA_Set_ENABLE32BITAPPPOOL" Property="CA_ENABLE32BITAPPPOOL"
Value="[WEB_SITE_NAME]|"/>
<CustomAction Id="CA_ENABLE32BITAPPPOOL" BinaryKey="BIN_CustomActionMM"
DllEntry="Enable32BitApplicationPool" Impersonate="no" Execute="deferred"
Return="ignore"/>
<UI>
<ProgressText Action="CA_ENABLE32BITAPPPOOL">CA: Setting
enable32BitAppOnWin64 for TITUS Application Pool...</ProgressText>
</UI>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="CA_Set_ENABLE32BITAPPPOOL" After="CostFinalize">NOT
Installed</Custom>
<Custom Action="CA_ENABLE32BITAPPPOOL" Before="InstallFinalize">NOT
Installed</Custom>
/// <summary>
/// Enable32BitApplicationPool sets the App Pool propery
enable32BitAppOnWin64
/// true or false depending on the bitness of the OS
/// </summary>
/// <param name="session"></param>
/// <returns>ActionResult.Success</returns>
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult Enable32BitApplicationPool(Session session)
{
try
{
if (session == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException("session");
}
string tempString = (GetSessionProperty(session,
"CustomActionData", false));
string[] parts = tempString.Split(new[] { '|' });
string applicationPool = parts[0]; // which is [WEB_SITE_NAME]
the name of the web app pool as well
const string quote = "\"";
string cmdLineParameters = "set apppool /apppool.name:" + quote
+ applicationPool + quote + " /enable32BitAppOnWin64:false";
var cmdLineExe =
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System) +
"\\inetsrv\\appcmd.exe";
// Prepare the process to run
var startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
{
UseShellExecute = true,
Arguments = cmdLineParameters,
FileName = cmdLineExe,
WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden,
CreateNoWindow = true
};
// Run the external process & wait for it to finish
using (Process proc = Process.Start(startInfo))
{
proc.WaitForExit();
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show("Enable32BitApplicationPool failed: " +
ex.Message, "Custom action exception error...", MessageBoxButtons.OK,
MessageBoxIcon.Error);
}
return ActionResult.Success;
}
/// <summary>
/// Detects whether or not the OS is 64 or 32 bit
/// </summary>
/// <returns></returns>
private static bool Is64BitWindows()
{
return
Directory.Exists(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFilesX86));
}
Hope this helps out...

Or better, just add the missing setting to the WiX CA. I can't image it's that
much work... certainly less than creating a whole new CA.
