To expand on that response, you might also need to prepend the vdir property with an http://[ComputerName]/ before your vdir property that you gather from the user.

Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Get full URL to IIS virtual directory I would take what the user types in and put that in a Property (might already be if you check a verbose log file) and then use that Property to populate the config file in an XMLConfig element. Should be a piece of cake.

Is there a way to get the full URL of an IIS virtual directory that was created using WiX? The UI I have created lets my users select an IIS website and enter in a virtual directory name. The vdir then gets created using the IIsExtension.dll. The catch is that I need to stick the URL to that vdir in an XML config file. Should I just look up the vdir in the IIS Metabase using a custom action sequenced after the "ConfigureIIs" action or is there a simpler way? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Get-full-URL-to-IIS-virtual-directory-tp4462298p446 2298.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
