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

Does anyone know of a tool that, given a component GUID, will list all

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

Don't use VS to edit your XML. Something like Notepad2 or Vim or any

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

If you're on XP, it's probably this bug:

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,
re you using?

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

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

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

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

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
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.
