>From the wix manual: "GenericRead YesNoType specifying this will fail to grant read access" Im not sure if GenericAll overrides that or not.
Try adding: Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" ReadExtendedAttributes="yes" ReadPermission="yes" -----Original Message----- From: Kun Shi (ofox) [mailto:s...@vmware.com] Sent: 30 January 2013 15:07 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] Permission element for domain user account Hi guys, I'm having a question about Permission usage. Referring to http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix2/wix_xsd_permission.htm, I have the following codes, I use a domain account(with administrator privilege) to install it, but I couldn't access the install dir due to no permission. What's wrong with my codes? <PropertyRef Id='WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS' /> <PropertyRef Id='WIX_ACCOUNT_USERS' /> ... <Component Id="ProductComponent" ...> <CreateFolder> <Permission User='[WIX_ACCOUNT_USERS]' GenericRead='yes' GenericExecute='yes' /> <Permission User='[WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS]' GenericAll='yes' /> </CreateFolder> ... The installation log shows 'WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS'==BUILTIN/Administrators, 'WIX_ACCOUNT_USERS'==BUILTIN/Users Thanks! -ofox ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Everyone hates slow websites.
