Hi,
I need to install 3 Drivers (one minifilter driver and two other system
drivers). None of them is signed.
Can I use the Difxapp-Extension of Wix v3 for that?
What is necessary to use that Extension?
Thanks

The linker pulls in complete "sections". A Fragment creates one section.
Thus, if you reference anything in a Fragment everything the Fragment is
included in your output. If you want very granular inclusion of code, make
appropriately small Fragments.

IIS7 pretty much broke everything. They changed the access on the objects to
require admin privileges to even read the metabase. There is a bug open on

I am getting this error when attempting to install my MSI on server2k8.
I have IIS6 Metabase installed.
If I run it from an elevated command prompt w/ msiexec /I foo.msi it installs
properly.
It also installs with no errors on win2k3

Not as far as we can tell. Like I mentioned if I provide the same server name
in uppercase it works.
I am using SQL Server 2005 SP2 and Wix version 3.0.4318.0.

Vidya,
The error number translates to 80004005 which I think is an Access
Denied type error. I must say I am not sure why changing the case of
the server name would cause this. Is anything else different when you
get this error, other than case?

Thanks very much for the help everyone,
Rob you were right I think that something was being referenced twice. I'm
not sure if I managed to do it (not sure if you can when VS is calling the

You can do a property/regsearch for IIS v5/6/7:

Same for .NET 20

Do you have one of the databases open in Orca (or another tool) while running
your code?

hi.
i need to make installer for my project, and i'm wondering if wix is the right
solution for me.

so i decided to ask here.
my project consists of two parts.
