That's a separate issue - that is a custom action failure. Some of the scenarios in which I heard that might happen include wrong/missing IIS on the target machine. I'm really not an expert on the IIS stuff so I'll have to defer to someone more knowledgeable. One thing you can do to make this easier to debug is get a verbose installation log and post the lines of the failure (and around it) here.
Derek -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of david adams Sent: Sunday, August 20, 2006 6:09 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] [Bug #1498645 ] Configure IIS error on 2.0.4126 It sounded like the same symptoms. Candle and Light process successfully, but the MSI gets a Windows Installer Error 'Failed to read IIs Webs Table' (the failed table read is either 'Webs' or 'Web'). The symptoms seemed very similar to the 3.0 problem that was apparently a missing extension.
