MSIZap doesn't fix anything. All it does is remove the Windows Installer
entries so your installer doesn't show up in Add/Remove Programs.
Everything the installer did to your system is still there (files,
registry entries etc) & I've seen more than one occasion where a user

Never tried output console messages directly. I always use the core object
to report messages. Are you sure that the extension is getting loaded? Did
you add the appropririate project reference? Need a bit more detail about
what you are doing to really be helpful.

What are the versions of WiX toolset you are working with?

You should upgrade to the RTM drop of WiX v3.5 first. There were a number of
bugs taken late in the IIS custom actions so what you are seeing may have
changed... or it may have not. The final release of WiX v3.5 is
what is supported, in any case.

Thanks for the input. Yes this is a single MSI with 3 features.
I have tried the [#executable] idea, but I get an ICE69 error (MAINEXEC
references invalid file).
Hello,
I'd like to have a text control in a installer dialog that allows
input of a database connection string. The database connection string
can be rather long, so rather than have its text flow off into the
nether world, I'd like to make the text box taller and have the text
automatically wrap
You need to use either [#fileid] for a long path or [!fileid] for a
short path. Since it's the same MSI there should be no need to mess
about with Properties just change the TargetProperty to reference the
File Id of the executable.
The ICE69 error is because there's no File with Id of "MAINEXEC"

What you are running into is UAC, Google it if you have not already.
You need Execute="deferred" custom actions with Impersonate="no". This will

General guidance. Are you setting the file path for the MDF and LDF files of
the database in the WIX code? I can't see this in the emails I get.
If so the Account that the SQL Server service logs on as, will need to have
write / modify access to the folders in the paths you specify. I
