The Error 0x8007056b is "A member could not be added to or removed from
the local group because the member does not exist." It looks like its
not resolving the account properly from your USER_ACCOUNT property.
I've always found that you need to split the domain from the username
when using user actions, have a separate property for the Domain from
the Name.
E.g.
<util:User Id="DomainUser" CreateUser="no" Name="[SVCUSER]"
Password="[SVCPASS]" Domain="[SVCDOMAIN]" LogonAsService="yes"
UpdateIfExists="yes">
<util:GroupRef Id="SDLGroup"/>
</util:User>

Subject: [WiX-users] Adding user to a group
I am trying to get the user who runs the service to go into the
'Distributed COM User'. The service that is being installed does Office
automation. So I have added the following to my wxs:
<util:User Id="AppPoolUser" Name="[USER_ACCOUNT]"
Password="[USER_PASSWORD]" CreateUser="no" UpdateIfExists="no"
LogonAsService="yes" >
<util:GroupRef Id="dcom" />
</util:User>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
<util:Group Id="dcom" Name="Distributed COM Users" />
When I run it I get the following in the error:
CreateUser: Error 0x8007056b: Failed to add user
WinNT://THEBIGWORD\LinguineUser to group 'WinNT://Localhost/Distributed
COM Users'.
CreateUser: Error 0x8007056b: failed to add user:
THEBIGWORD\LinguineUser to group Distributed COM Users
MSI (c) (3C:08) [09:27:26:809]: Font created. Charset: Req=0, Ret=0,
Font: Req=MS Shell Dlg, Ret=MS Shell Dlg
Error 26403. Failed to add user to group. (-2147023509
THEBIGWORD\LinguineUser Distributed COM Users )
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? I have tried changing
UpdateIfExisits to yes, but that didnt seem to work either.
Thanks
George
