Hi,

I have an installer that creates a virtual directory in IIS. I have created 
that installer using Wix 2.0.5805.0, which I believe is the latest 2.0 release. 
The installer (resulting MSI) works fine on XP, 2003 and even on 32-bit Vista 
and 32-bit Windows Server 2008.
On the UAC enabled OSes (Vista and 2008), I get the "Admin Consent Form" asking 
for elevation. After I allow the installer to run, the install finishes 
successfully on the 32-bit OSes but fails with "Error 26002. Failed to read 
IIsWebs table." on 64-bit Windows Server 2008 VM. I haven't tried 64-bit Vista.
 
Looking at the installation log, I confirmed that the install successfully got 
past the point where it puts the files in the "Program Files" directory which 
kind of proves that "elevation" worked.

Can someone provide some insight/help into this solving this problem? If you 
would like me to prepare a small MSI which demonstrates this problem, I can do 
that as well.
PS: We are considering using Wix 3.0 in the near future but this an existing 
release whose installation I don't want to change too much. However, I don't 
know if Wix 3.0 doesn't have this issue.

thanks,
Manish.
