Hi ,
I want to display a control depending on the value of the property.
I tried this below:
?if IISCHECK~=?
control id=yeslabel x=10, y=10, width=50 Height=50 text=yes
/control
?endif?
Even if registry search fails the label is getting displayed. I suspect the
property IISCHECK is
Thanks for the input. When looking at it again it does seem to depend
too much on the order and as that can't be controlled I think I will
have to split it out with some custom actions.

I made a major upgrade for reinstallation. But encountered an issue to backup
the files which are already installed before. I'd like to build a executable
project in VS to do this. I want to know if there is any way to do it in
WiX? Thanks in advance.

I want to do similar things to what Xmlfile does, but I need to also

I use ServiceInstall as well (even though it's not .NET), the only

Ok, that makes sense. However, I can't get it to work either way. The
problem is not in changing just the 4th version number either. I created
a simple C# console executable that has one line of code:
Console.Writeln(This is version 1.0.0.0);
and assembly info AssemblyVersion(1.0.0.0)] and
1. I don't think you need 2 servicecontrol tags. You can combine the two you
have and use one (I haven't tried two so I don't know if that's an issue).
2. Make sure that the person installing has admin rights on your install server.
3. if UAC is enabled, disable it (only on vista/server 2008)
4.
Also check out XmlConfig as I've been told it is more robust if all you're
doing is changing XML values in XML files.
Example:
util:XmlConfig Id=settings2 Action=create
File=[#file3] Sequence=2 ElementPath=/configuration/appSettings/[EMAIL
A property cannot have an embedded property within it. To do this, you have to
do use a custom action that resolves your property into another property.

Are you passing your port number in at uninstall? Does your port in your

OK, I changed the GUIDs, and now the Default Web Site doesn't get removed on

I guess I need to store the port number in the registry, and do a

Sorry to jump in but I think the problem is that you aren't storing the
port for uninstall.

Hi,
As far as I've understood, and irrespectively of your port issue, a WebSite

also remove it on uninstall. You THINCTRAX_PORT 80 sniffet should not
