I have a real big problem. I have made a bootstrapper-project with WiX 3.8, which installs the setup files on a physical drive and makes a webdeployment. My setup-files include a MDF-file with a database. As a prerequsite SQL Server Express is installed with the following InstallCommand, which generates a SQL Server Instance called "SQLExpress":
InstallCommand='/QS /ACTION="Install" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ENU="False" /UpdateEnabled="True" /FEATURES="SQLENGINE,LOCALDB,FULLTEXT,BOL" /UpdateSource="MU" /HELP="False" /INSTANCENAME="SQLEXPRESS" /INSTANCEID="SQLEXPRESS" /SQMREPORTING="False" /ERRORREPORTING="False" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\Network Service" /AGTSVCSTARTUPTYPE="Automatic" /COMMFABRICPORT="0" /COMMFABRICNETWORKLEVEL="0" /COMMFABRICENCRYPTION="0" /MATRIXCMBRICKCOMMPORT="0" /FILESTREAMLEVEL="0" /ENABLERANU="True" /SQLCOLLATION="Latin1_General_CI_AS" /SQLSVCSTARTUPTYPE="Automatic" /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\Network Service" /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\ADMINISTRATORS" /SECURITYMODE="SQL" /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN="True" /TCPENABLED="1" /NPENABLED="1" /BROWSERSVCSTARTUPTYPE="Automatic" /FTSVCACCOUNT="NT Service\MSSQLFDLauncher" /ROLE="AllFeatures_WithDefaults" /ASSVCSTARTUPTYPE="Automatic" /ISSVCStartupType="Automatic" /RSSVCStartupType="Automatic" /SAPWD="<sa_password>"' Then in the MSI-project i want to create a SQL login, either to have access to the database in my MDF-file and to connect to the database on the website (which was installed by the web deployment). So i tried to realize this with the util:User-element. When i try to create the user and add him to the administrators group, this doesn't work because of insufficient rights allthough my user is an administrator. Then i commented the groupref for the administrators out and the log-file of my setup says, that the user was created. But when i take a look at the existing logins in SQL Server Management, i cannot find my new login. Have i made something wrong? Or is there another way, to create a SQL login? Thanks in advance!
