Re: [WiX-users] Private Assemblies with Wix

Private assemblies are simply installed as files. Don't specify the Assembly attribute at all, nor the AssemblyName elements. Generally you don't actually specify the elements; light can fix those up for itself. If you want the FileVersion to be specified, you can use the -fv switch to light. Onl

Re: [WiX-users] Web Application Pool

I think we have one application pool per web site as well.  However, I am working on an upgrade scenario, and do not want to re-configure the application pool if it exists because the user may have updated settings on it since the original install.  The same applies for the web site we create, but
