I need to create a virtual directory within my application that points to a UNC share in another machine. Is this supported or should I use a custom action for this?
I tried this but it didn't work, the virtual directory got created to the local path, not the UNC share: <DirectoryRef Id="WEBROOTDIR"> <Directory Id="EKTRONWEB_FOLDER" Name="Ektron Web"> <Directory Id="UPLOADEDFILES_FOLDER" Name="UploadedFiles" FileSource="\\[ASSET_SERVER_MACHINE_NAME]\UploadedFiles<file:///\\[ASSET_SERVER_MACHINE_NAME]\UploadedFiles>"></Directory> <Directory Id="UPLOADEDIMAGES_FOLDER" Name="UploadedImages" FileSource="\\[ASSET_SERVER_MACHINE_NAME]\UploadedImages<file:///\\[ASSET_SERVER_MACHINE_NAME]\UploadedImages>"></Directory> </Directory> </DirectoryRef> <iis:WebDirProperties Id="EktronWebProperties" Read="yes" Execute="yes" AnonymousAccess="yes" /> <DirectoryRef Id="EKTRONWEB_FOLDER"> <Component Id="EktronWebComponent" Guid="6035E5D1-5C57-4137-9591-422E47CD78EA" Win64="yes"> <iis:WebSite Id="EktronWebSite" Description="Ektron Web Site" Directory="EKTRONWEB_FOLDER" ConfigureIfExists="yes"> <iis:WebAddress Id="EktronWebSiteAddress" Port="[EKTRONWEB_PORT]" /> <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="UploadedFilesVirDir" DirProperties="EktronWebProperties" Directory="UPLOADEDFILES_FOLDER" Alias="UploadedFiles"></iis:WebVirtualDir> <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="UploadedImagesVirDir" DirProperties="EktronWebProperties" Directory="UPLOADEDIMAGES_FOLDER" Alias="UploadedImages"></iis:WebVirtualDir> </iis:WebSite> </Component> </DirectoryRef> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.
