This is the bug: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1544874&group_id=105970&atid=642714
Not fixed yet. You will have to compile your own Wix to fix this. I suggest getting the latest from CVS and not using the source .zip archive. Run your .msi with logging turned on to see if this is really the error: Msiexec /i yourinstaller.msi /l* out.txt -Matt -----Original Message----- From: david adams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2006 7:36 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] New Website install I reported this bug a little while back. If the error has not been fixed, it is an array out of bounds exception that occurs if there is more than one website in IIS. Somehow this bug was introduced a couple of versions back because it did not exist (I know) in 3309. I think that the bug is in the IIS custom action.
