[WiX-users] Digest Authentication in Web Dir Properties
To All, Is there another setting to set the Realm property that goes along with Digest Authentication on the WebDirProperties Element? I see DigestAuthentication is a 'YesNoType' but I don't see a way to set the Realm that the Digest Authentication is suppose to use to authenticate its requests.

I suppose that it's not so suprisning since I do not specify which ChildNode element that should be modified... Should I set the value attribute in createElement and then use that value (by using a XPath) when identifying the new child node where I want to set the name attribute? If so, how do I set the Text value when defining a XPath? /Hans -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/XmlFile-CreateElement-tp17864933p17864933.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Re: [WiX-users] Issue with XMLFile in util
Thanks Rob, Funny thing is that the we were modifying 2 xml/config files that are part of our product and they are Installed and Uninstalled as part of that product and it would still fail. None the less, issue happen and I would be happy to share the Log files with you to see if it is something you want to look into. I still took your advise on using the XmlConfig instead and all is working perfectly. So I would too recommend XmlConfig or XmlFile since it does have more flexibility is what you can do during install/uninstall.

Re: [WiX-users] service fail to install due to networkService account
To All, So when I attempted to do this in my service install element I am still getting the Failed because of required permissions. Would it be possible to see a complete snippet of this being used? My ServiceInstall Element is nested under a Component element with a File element whose keypath is set to yes. If I take out the Account attribute all is fine and the service is installed as 'Local System', if I leave the Account and Password attributes and use a created Service Account all is good and the service is installed. All of these configurations for 'Network Service' have failed though: Thanks, Ryan > Solved. The network service account needs to be specified with its domain. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

In v2 you used to be able to add custom bitmaps to the Dialogs. Has that changed in v3 or am I doing something wrong.
