I don't totally understand what you mean about Custom Action vbscript. I'm not sure if you mean you don't know vbscript as a language for Custom Actions or you don't understand the VBScript in adsutil.
If it's the later, fear not, as I was over-complicating it a bit by saying use adsutil - I've included these snippets come from http://www.iisfaq.com - I've not tested them at the mo though as i don't have an IIS setup i can test them on. this VBScript will list the websites on the webserver: Set objIIS = getObject("IIS://LocalHost/W3SVC") For each objSite in objIIS if (objSite.Class = "IIsWebServer") then WScript.Echo "Website: " & objSite.Name & " - " & objSite.ServerComment end if next I believe this will give you the virtual folders for a given website ID: Set objIISSite = getObject("IIS://LocalHost/W3SVC/<----Add the website ID here--->") For each objVirDir in objIISSite if (objVirDir.Class = "IISWebVirtualDir") then WScript.Echo "VirtualDir: " & objVirDir.Name end if next If it's the former, that is you don't know much about custom actions and vbscript, i'm sorry to say i can't help much with that - i've not written any custom actions myself for a long time...

If I am seeing it right, I have to use first the ENUM Parameter to find out how many Sites are hosted on this IIS and after that I have to parse for each Site the Server Comment parameter. But even if I can realize this I am not able to use Custom Action vbscript because I do not knot how it works :( I think it could be a solution but i do not think that I can get it work. Perhaps you can show me what I have to do. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2007 2:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WiX-users] choosing Website (not Webserver) and changing Virtual Directory I recalled what the script was - adsutil.vbs - see this for more info http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/d3df4bc9-0954-459a-b5e6-7a8bc462960c.mspx?mfr=true Matt Thompson PERSHING Tel: 020 7864 8000 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] shing.co.uk Sent by: To wix-users-bounces "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" @lists.sourceforg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> e.net cc [EMAIL PROTECTED] .net, 25/09/2007 12:18 "wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net" <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject Re: [WiX-users] choosing Website (not Webserver) and changing Virtual Directory Off the top of my head I'm not sure exactly how you'd do this but I've got some experience scripting IIS so thought I'd reply. There's a VBScript with the IIS resource kit that can be used to query the Metabase - maybe you could borrow the code from that, for a custom action, to enumerate the websites available and put them in a drop down?

On Czech Windows you can create so called „webovy server“ and it seems to be the wrong translation because I have seen an English system now and there you create Website. Thats what I wanted to know, how I could choose from the installed Websites on the system, where it has to deploy the webapplication. I can not find an action or something else to read this out.

I think changing the Virtual Directory should not be a big problem, just adding a Textbox and triggering a custom action setting the property of the Virtual directory new. But how can I gain access to the webserver list so that I can choose one and how can I tell Wix that it should use this Webserver?
