Hi all,
I'm trying to create a WIX installer which allows a user to select a
certificate to use for a Web Site SSL binding.
However, if they don't have a valid certificate installed yet (just looking
in the Local Machine, My certificate store) then I'd like them to be able to
generate a Self-Signe
And for all that appcmd.exe, to achieve the result in my example, you would be
better off using:
The important attributes are "AccessSSL" and "AcessSSL128".

I hate appcmd.exe. That being said, CAQuietExec64 is usually a much better
choice. For example:
I have the commit bit instead of the deferred bit set for a reason. There's no
good way to rollback out of appcmd.exe calls. So I execute th
For things IIS related not directly authored in WiX code I've found APPCMD.EXE
to be a useful substitute in a custom action for those sorts of things. These
are older and may be supported natively now, but some examples.

Is it possible to set an AppPool's LogEventOnRecycle bitmask using WiX? I
don't see it, but maybe missed it.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Putting KeyPath to the registry element didnot make any difference. It still
gets removed.
Is SharedDllRefCount="yes" correct attribute for a component that has a
shared registry entry?
thanks.

It's a good thing to set ARPINSTALLOCATION anyway. Any company with
management or inventory tools that use the standard MSI APIs can then use
MsiGetProductInfo (...INSTALLPROPERTY_INSTALLLOCATION...) or equivalent to
find the install directory chosen by the customer. Or for upgrades you may
need to
Hi,
How do I reference count a registry component to use it between 2
features? I have a feature named Agent that is shared by two other features,
say, Auth and Bridge. Agent feature has a component that writes to registry.
When I remove Auth or Bridge feature, the registry entry gets removed fr

I've always disliked Windows 7 UAC security where it gives a pop-up every

I don't need to bother with ARPINSTALLLOCATION at all, instead I should use
AppSearch/ComponentSearch at startup (during uninstall/upgrade) for a

You can dynamically set an install directory with the SetDirectory element.
The WebVirtualDir element, in the IIS extension, uses the Directory property
to point to a Directory element. So if you set up your Directory element,
point to it with WebVirtualDir, and use SetDirectory to change its targe
Thanks, so Windows Installer itself does nothing with the value?

You would need to set either MYROOTDIR or FEAT1DIR (whichever is the most
parent you are using) from an AppSearch of some sort. Best is to use a
component search if you have a component using the parent-most directory you
are using. You could use a registry search to retrieve ARPINSTALLLOCATION
Having thought about this overnight, I had an idea. I haven't tried this, but I
believe it should work.

We have several products that share code. These are organised into final .exe

If you open up the MSI in Orca and View → Summary Information, you should see a

Then look in the Property table. You should find a property named ALLUSERS that
is set to the value of 1.
Restructure the Setup to put the Data in the AppData Folder. If this
is a corporate install, leaving it behind is OK, as employees won't
know its there. If it's for public Consumption, the AppData Folder is

This does not work in the first place as element is not
