Re: [WiX-users] IUSR
I always create a local account to run our websites under, that way I can be very explicit in what permissions it has, which of course is not many. I do have some similar code to work out the IIS_WPG/IIS_IUsers group name though. -Original Message- From: Michael Osmond [mailto:mosm...@baytech.com.au] Sent: 02 June 2011 03:25 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] IUSR Hi Here is a snipit of how I determine if I should use name\IIS_WPG (IIS6) or builtin\IIS_IUSRS (IIS7) group in our installs. It has to deal with both the domain part and the name. Gets messy because of domain controllers as well. You could take something like this as a starting point.

Re: [WiX-users] IUSR
What does a verbose log say? If you are not certain as to the value of your IUSR_USERNAME property, it will be hard to verify that what account was given write access to your file. -Blair -Original Message- From: gapearce [mailto:mr_gapea...@yahoo.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2011 12:42 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] IUSR I'm trying to set permissions on a file like this, using WiX 3.5: And after install I don't see any explicit permissions for [IUSR_USERNAME], (which should resolve to NT_AUTHORITY/IUSR on my Windows 7 box, I think).
