Hi Carter, Sorry for late reply, was stuck up in some other work. Coming to the topic, actually in the Product.wxs I am using the IIS extension to convert to Virtual Directory and it works fine when we choose the Default Web Site. As I told before I am not able to get the reason why it works perfectly for Default WebSite and is just copying the files to other website physical path when we are choosing a different website. As we can see from the verbose log, physical path and website name all are correct but not getting converted to Virtual Directory. Could you think of any other reason why this might be happening. Please update me as soon as possible.
Thank you. Regards Tony Jose On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 11:50 AM, Tony Jose Mampilly <kooltonyj...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Carter, > > Thank you so much for the update.
