Wix Version: Wix 3.5.1710.0
I have the following element that works in IIS 6 (Win 2003 Server). I'm now
porting to install onto Windows Server 2008 R2. I had to change IISGroup to
reference IIS_IUSRS and the install works. However, I found that the web site
does not reference my RootWebAppPool application pool. It references the
Default pool. However, the sub app does reference SubWebAppPool. Why the
difference?
When I run this same code in Windows 2003 server, it works (with
IISGroup=IIS_WPG) and the app pool is assigned to both applications.
Thanks.
