I've made a fix in very recent WiX v2 build to support using NT
AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE as the "User" for an AppPool and have the correct
thing happen under the covers. If you get the latest WiX v2 build, you should
see this working.

Subject: [WiX-users] Letting user select network service or domain account for
WebAppPool custom action
I am trying to install a web app and I want to let the user select the Identity
that the App Pool uses. They should be able to select between Network Service
and a domain account that they provide. The problem that I am running into is
when I try to use a property in the Identity parameter of the WebAppPool tag.
I am trying the following:
<User Id="WEB_USER" Name="[USERID]" Password="[PASSWORD]"
Domain="[DOMAIN]" CreateUser="no">
<GroupRef Id="IIS" />
</User>
<WebAppPool Id="AppPoolID" Name="TFS AppPool"
Identity="[WEB_IDENTITY]" User="WEB_USER" />
I get the following error when I do this:
1>vstfwebtieractions.fragment.wxs(26) : error CNDL0027: The 'Identity'
attribute has an invalid value according to its data type.
If I replace "[WEB_IDENTITY]" with "other" or "networkService" it compiles, but
the type of Identity is determined at compile time, not install time. Is there
an example WiX fragment that shows how to determine if the App Pool will run as
Network Service or a domain account at install time instead of at compile time?
Thanks in advance for your help,
