_Creating_ the app pool is not an issue, because you don't have to wait for the website to show up in the list of sites. Changing the app pool on the site, however, does require the site to exist before installation can continue.

Hi, I do this (in Wix 3.0) without any problems, I use xmlfile though, but I would have thought they would be scheduled similarly. Maybe this is a wix 3.5 issue. E.g. <util:XmlFile Id="ModifyAppPoolPipelineType" Action="setValue" ElementPath="//configuration/system.applicationHost/applicationPools/add [...@name='SdlServer'[\]]/@managedPipelineMode" File="[WindowsFolder]System32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config" Value="Integrated"/> The xpath looks for an apppool by its name. Look in the InstallExecuteSequence table in your built msi with orca, order by sequence. In mine ConfigureIIs is before SchedXmlFile (I assume these are the right actions).

I'm trying to change the app pool of a website I'm installing in iis7 (created using the IISExtension's Website) using XmlConfig against applicationHost.config. But even though I place the component that alters the config at the end of the Feature, it seems like the website doesn't show up in the config file until after the installer completes. Is there anything I can do about this? I thought about creating the entire website definition, but sites are indexed by number and I don't know how to set it correctly.
