Hello everyone,
Yesterday Phil Wilson gave me an excellent VBScript to list all the
registered components and associated products on a machine. The reason
I needed this is that it appears I have an "orphaned" component that
should not be in the component database but yet it is. I suspect it is
due

Hello list,
Does anyone know of a tool that, given a component GUID, will list all
the products that are referencing that component?
Thanks,
Luke

Just as a double-check, you have every IIS 6.0 metabase compatibility
options checked? I believe you select it as part of Add/Remove Windows
features.

We would probably need to see the wxs files and verbose logs from both
installation and uninstallation to make a diagnosis.

There aren't that many extensions ... I would just enumerate them all.

Use a custom action to execute "iisreset.exe"

WiX users,
I'm following up on a thread from late July entitled "Failure using
Wix installer certificates with WCF". I am trying to use WiX to
install PFX certificates with private keys on Windows Vista. The
installer I have works on XP, but on Vista the certificates *appear*
to install correctly,
If you're on XP, it's probably this bug:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1930640&group_id=105970&atid=642714
Build 4513 has this issue in it.

Without a verbose installation log diagnosing this problem via the
mailing list is near impossible.
That being said, if you're creating a site via VBScript be sure to use
a "locator"

Don't use VS to edit your XML. Something like Notepad2 or Vim or any
modern text editor should work great.

If I understand how Windows Installer works (which may or may not be
the case) ... if you never intend to do patches or minor upgrades you
can always gene
One option is to use cscript.exe/adsutil.vbs to set LogFileDirectory
and other metabase settings as a CustomAction. I don't know how you
would get the ID of a newly created web site, however.

That sounds like using a hammer for what is just a simple task with regexes and
a competent text editor - I suggested vim because I find it

I don't think it makes much sense to use the PFX format for a trusted

Hello everyone,

Hi all,
When a release is made is a corresponding tag made in CVS so we can
get the sources corresponding to that release? I can't seem to find
one way or the other. Currently I'm working from the date of the
corresponding wix/history.txt file.
Thanks,
Luke
