I am trying to allow users to select which WebSite they wish to install a
virtual directory under. I have used the method describe here which gives me
the list however the virtual directory is still installed under the default
web site since the port of the Web Address is the same. This is my
declaration of the web site as is stated in the WiX help.
"Nesting WebSite under Product, Fragment, or Module results in a web site
"locator" record being created in the IIsWebSite table. This means that the
web site itself is neither installed nor uninstalled by the MSI package. It
does make the database available for referencing from a WebApplication,
WebVirtualDir or WebDir record. This allows an MSI to install
WebApplications, WebVirtualDirs or WebDirs to already existing web sites on
the machine. The install will fail if the web site does not exist in these
cases."
<WebSite Id="DefaultWebSite" Description="[TARGETWEBCOMBO]" >
<WebAddress Id="AllUnassigned" Port="80" />
</WebSite>
and under a component I reference this Web Site
<WebVirtualDir Id="VirtualDir" Alias="[P_IIS_VIRTUALDIRECTORY]"
Directory="DirWeb" WebSite="DefaultWebSite">
<WebApplication Id="WebApp" Name="[P_IIS_VIRTUALDIRECTORY]">
</WebApplication>
</WebVirtualDir>
Any help on what I need to do would be greatly appreciated.

I found an article somewhere that states that the values in the tables
that
were there when the MSI started cannot be removed or updated.
Removing the Listitem from the Combobox also didn't work because that
dropped the whole table all together as there are no other comboboxes.
So I figured out 2 ways of doing it:
1. Orca
By editing the MSI with Orca I was able to remove the offending value from
the Combobox table.
2. This causes an ICE17 warning but it still compiles
I removed the combobox Listitems from the combobox I want to populate and
created a separate combobox with width and height = 0 (to make it
invisible). I gave this dummy combobox 1 Listitem to force the creation of
the Combobox table.
I also tried doing a create table query to get create the required
Combobox
table but can't get it to work The query looks like this:
CREATE TABLE `ComboBox` (`Property` CHARACTER(72) NOT NULL, `Order` SHORT
NOT NULL, `Value` CHARACTER(64) NOT NULL, `Text` CHARACTER(64)
LOCALIZABLE)
PRIMARY KEY `Property`, `Order` TEMPORARY
if anyone know how to solve this let me know, if only to get the ICE17
warnings to go away.
