All you do is you add the 'value' tag to the end of your elementpath and then
omit the Name= property and it will make it in as innerText.
<util:XmlConfig Id="Config.Update"
Action="create"
Sequence="1125"
ElementPath="/configuration/applicationSettings/Microsoft.Lexicon.Framework.BackgroundLocalFileSettings/setting[\[]@name='DatabaseServer'[\]]/value"
File="[MyModuleDirectory]$(var.StorageAgentWindowsService.TargetFileName).config"
Node="value"
Value="[CATALOGSERVER]"
On="install"/>

Subject: [WiX-users] Assistance using XmlConfig (assuming that is the correct
hammer for this issue)
Hello,
I am looking for some help using XmlConfig, assuming that XmlConfig is the
correct hammer for this issue.
I have an app.config file that I would like to modify when it is installed, a
sample config file -
<applicationSettings>
<Microsoft.Lexicon.Framework.BackgroundLocalFileSettings>
<setting name="DatabaseServer" serializeAs="String">
<value>(local)</value>
</setting>
<setting name="DefaultDatabase" serializeAs="String">
<value>TexusCatalog</value>
</setting>
</Microsoft.Lexicon.Framework.BackgroundLocalFileSettings>
</applicationSettings>
I would like to replace the strings "<value>(local)</value>" and
"<value>TexusCatalog</TexusCatalog> with the contents of a property.
In tried the following line of WIX to accomplish the task -
<util:XmlConfig Id="Config.Update"
Action="create"
Sequence="1125"
ElementPath="/configuration/applicationSettings/Microsoft.Lexicon.Framework.BackgroundLocalFileSettings/setting[\[]@name='DatabaseServer'[\]]"
VerifyPath="/configuration/applicationSettings/Microsoft.Lexicon.Framework.BackgroundLocalFileSettings/setting[\[]@name='DatabaseServer'[\]]"
File="[MyModuleDirectory]$(var.StorageAgentWindowsService.TargetFileName).config"
Node="value"
Name ="value"
Value="[CATALOGSERVER]"
On="install"/>
This resulted in a fragment that looked like this -
<setting name="DatabaseServer"
serializeAs="String" value="myserservername">
<value>(local)</value>
</setting>
I am new to WIX so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gregg
