I never figured out a built-in way (in WIX) to start/stop dependent Windows
services automagically. For example, the server has IIS installed along with
SMTP & POP3. When I stop IIS (via ServiceControl), the dependent services
also get stopped, but when I restart IIS (via ServiceControl), the dependent
services don't get started. I can include extra ServiceControl elements for
all the IIS dependent services, but the MSI will throw and exception if one
these dependent services hasn't been installed.
In short, is there a way to achieve the above functionality magically
(meaning, when I start/stop a specific service, all the dependent services
would start/stop based on which service is installed)?
Thanks.
