Re: [WiX-users] WebSites in ComboBox dynamically
Hello Alexei and All, I'm new to Wix. I'm trying to make a installer for website - something similar to what visual studio IDE provides. I've tried using the two scripts mentioned in the posts here to populate the combo box with the websites available on a machine as well as set the port of the in the WebAddress element using the script given here. But my installation is failing with the error message ConfigureIIs: Error 0x8007000d: invalid port provided for web site: ConfigureIIs: Error 0x8007000d: failed to read IIsWebSite table Error 26002. Failed to read IIsWebSite table. (-2147024883 ) I don't know where I'm going wrong. Please guide me as to how do i set the website port correctly.

Re: [WiX-users] WebSites in ComboBox dynamically
Our solution to this assumes knowledge of the server. We have our server admins create virtual IP addresses that map to the actual machine address. In this way, we install our websites to Port 80 of the virtual IP address with no requirements for host headers. We just leave the Default Website connected to the actual IP address.

The help was great and I got the combo box populating with the sites. Now I have a different problem related to websites. Let's say I have three sites on my box. The default site running on port 80 with no host header, site 1 running on port 81 with no host header and finally site 2 running on port 80 with a host header value of SITE2. When I select a site from my combo box and set the values Website element it appears that it is always installing under the default site. How do I handle this properly. More importantly, how do I handle this in a generic way so that no knowledge of the destination machine is required to do the install. Hope I am describing this properly. Thanks again everyone for all the help. Dana, your script you give me was very clean, easy to read and commented well.

My guess is that when the msi was generated, there wasn't enough information given it to create the combobox table (like listitem entries). You might need to include something in your ui page like this: ComboBox Property=IISWebsite ListItem Text=None Value=0/ /ComboBox You'll need to delete the listitems for that combobox before the ui is shown, however, or you'll end up with other problems in your MSI. I've included a file that I used as a testbed for combobox population. As a disclaimer: it is better (as you'll be told many times on this list) to use C++ custom actions, and I know there are a few good examples of c++ custom actions which populate combo boxes (see http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson10.php#10.1). But, to help you diagnose your problem for the time being, take a look at the included file, see if you can get that to work, and then build up from there.

Re: [WiX-users] WebSites in ComboBox dynamically
We approach the problem from a little different perspective. Instead of using a combo box / selection functionality within the UI, we set up multiple web site / web application components and features and have Admins (who perform installs in our environment) select which one they choose. In our case, there is a web site / web application component feature for each environment into which the application will be installed. The IP address Port values are property values defined in an application-specific WXS file while the actual component features are defined in a common WXS file that each application inherits as a fragment. From the installers perspective, they select which one to install from the [Select Features] dialog. We are building installs for internally developed and utilized applications (not commercial) so we know the IP addresses and Ports as a function of our design. We usually have four possible environments into which an application is being loaded (Dev, Test, QA, or Production) our features easily allow the installers (who do not need to know or understand anything about our apps) to select and install to the appropriate environment. I do not know if this type of model would meet your needs, but if you need more specifics, let me know.
