Hi First thing, during setup authoring you should not use fire&forget behavior. So I would recommend not to use IgnoreFailure="yes" until you're very sure your code is rock-solid. If there's no obvious error during installation time you can still try to refactor your code.
I guess FirewallException takes Name field of parent File element to iterate through. So in your case it's always DsNetConfig.exe. What you could try is leave out the Name and let WiX define it. Next possibly working solution: In my setups I always use Port exceptions instead of Program exceptions. For that case I would recommend making components for each FirewallException (for each port) and controlling it by the component states of the programs which need the regarding ports.

Juli 2014 12:06 To: 'wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: [WiX-users] Multiple Firewall Exceptions with the same name Hi, I'm facing a problem with firewall exceptions. I create wxs-Files which contain the same file at 2 or 3 different directories. Those files have a child element for creating a firewall exception. The name of the firewall exception is always the same. This leads to the fact, that in case of installation only the last exception with the common name is visible in the Windows Firewall rule overview. <Directory Name="A"> <Component Id="comp1" Guid="guid1"> <File Id="_File1" Name="DsNetConfig.exe" Source="..." DiskId="1"> <fire:FirewallException Id="fwext2" Name="text" Description="..." Scope="any" IgnoreFailure="yes" /> </File> </Component> </Directory> <Directory Name="B"> <Component Id="comp2" Guid="guid2"> <File Id="_File2" Name="DsNetConfig.exe" Source="..." DiskId="1"> <fire:FirewallException Id="fwext5" Name="text" Description="..." Scope="any" IgnoreFailure="yes" /> </File> </Component> </Directory> My questions is: Do I need to rename all firewall exception name "text" to something unique like "text1", "text2" ?
