I have a bug with the latest versions of Wix (3.5 and 3.6), when trying
to create a virtual directory with IIS7.

 

Here is the code I use :

 

<Property Id="TARGETVDIR" Value="Admin" />

<Property Id="WEBSITE_PORT" Value="80"/>

<Property Id="WEBSITE_IP" Value="*"/>

<Property Id="SITEID" Value="1" />

 

<iis:WebDirProperties Id="AdminWebDirProperties" Execute="no"
Script="yes" Read="yes" WindowsAuthentication="yes"

                AnonymousAccess="yes" IIsControlledPassword="yes"
DefaultDocuments="default.aspx" Write="no" LogVisits="yes" Index="no" />

 

<iis:WebSite Id="AdminWebSite" Description="Admin Web Site"
SiteId="[SITEID]">

                <iis:WebAddress Id="AdminWebAddress" Port="80" />

</iis:WebSite>

 

<ComponentGroup Id="AdminWebSiteComponentGroup">

                <Component Id="AdminWebSiteIIs6Component"
Guid="{D9F0F8AB-4DE8-4734-9B3C-F798A6D3227D}" Directory="TARGETDIR"
KeyPath="yes">

                               <Condition><![CDATA[IISMAJORVERSION >=
"#6" AND TARGETVDIR]]></Condition>

                               <iis:WebAppPool Id="AdminIIs6AppPool"
Name="Admin" Identity="networkService" />

                               <iis:WebVirtualDir
Id="AdminIIs6VirtualDir" Alias="[TARGETVDIR]" Directory="AdminWebDir"
WebSite="AdminWebSite"

 
DirProperties="AdminWebDirProperties">

                                               <iis:WebApplication
Id="AdminIIs6Application" Name="Admin" WebAppPool="AdminIIs6AppPool" />

                               </iis:WebVirtualDir>

                </Component>

 

                <Component Id="AdminWebSiteIIs6SiteRootComponent"
Guid="{C04D607C-4F52-4FC2-B3E2-00ACBF94B0FC}" Directory="TARGETDIR"
KeyPath="yes" >

                               <Condition><![CDATA[IISMAJORVERSION >=
"#6" AND NOT TARGETVDIR]]></Condition>

                               <iis:WebAppPool
Id="AdminIIs6SiteRootAppPool" Name="Admin" Identity="networkService" />

                               <iis:WebSite
Id="AdminIIs6SiteRootWebSite" ConfigureIfExists="yes" SiteId="[SITEID]"
Directory="AdminWebDir"

 
DirProperties="AdminWebDirProperties" Description="Admin">

                                               <iis:WebAddress
Id="AdminIIs6SiteRootWebAddress" Port="[WEBSITE_PORT]" IP="[WEBSITE_IP]"
/>

                                               <iis:WebApplication
Id="AdminIIs6SiteRootApplication" Name="Admin"
WebAppPool="AdminIIs6SiteRootAppPool" />

                               </iis:WebSite>

                </Component>

</ComponentGroup>

 

When I do not set TARGETVDIR, the code works fine on IIS7.

But when I set TARGETVDIR (that is : I want to create a virtual
directory into the default web site), I get :

 

Action 15:53:29: StartIIS7ConfigTransaction. Starting IIS Config
Transaction

Action 15:53:30: RollbackIIS7ConfigTransaction. Rolling back IIS Config
Transaction

Action 15:53:30: CommitIIS7ConfigTransaction. Committing IIS Config
Transaction

Action 15:53:30: WriteIIS7ConfigChanges. Installing Config Keys and
Values

WriteIIS7ConfigChanges:  Error 0x80070002: Site not found for create
application

WriteIIS7ConfigChanges:  Error 0x80070002: Failed to configure IIS
application.

WriteIIS7ConfigChanges:  Error 0x80070002: WriteIIS7ConfigChanges
Failed.

CustomAction WriteIIS7ConfigChanges returned actual error code 1603
(note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside
sandbox)

Action ended 15:53:30: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.

 

Note that the above code works fine with IIS6, so I guess there is a bug
in the IIS7 helpers...

 

Any idea on how to fix the problem, without using custom actions ?

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security 
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the
