Standard Permissions element expects the user to exist before the ConfigureUsers action can create them. If you use PermissionEx you can create users and use them in ACLs. However, I do not believe that PermissionEx is a superset of Permission functionality.<unk<unk-----Original Message-----<unkFrom: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jason<unkSent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 08:55<unkTo: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net<unkSubject: [WiX-users] Create User before CreateFolders<unk<unkHi, all<unkI am using wix version 3.<unkMy installer needs to create a user first, then create folder. The created user will have full control over the installed folder/files.<unkI try to let the ConfigureUsers run before CreateFolders by adding "<Custom Action="ConfigureUsers" Before="CreateFolders"/> to the InstallExecuteSequence element. The log showed that the CreateUser indeed run before CreateFolders. However, the CreateFol der aborted the installation by saying the user does not exist.<unk-------------------log.txt-------------------<unkA c t i o n s t a r t 0 : 3 3 : 2 3 : C o n f i g u r e U s e r s .<unk A c t i o n 0 : 3 3 : 2 3 : C r e a t e U s e r R o l l b a c k .<unk A c t i o n s t a r t 0 : 3 3 : 2 3 : C r e a t e U s e r R o l l b a c k .<unk C r e a t e U s e r R o l l b a c k :<unk A c t i o n e n d e d 0 : 3 3 : 2 3 : C r e a t e U s e r R o l l b a c k .
