I'm doing a remote admin installation using an internal MSI deployment tool. My
problem is that when I go to set the folder permissions for a FileShare it's
telling me I don't have permissions to do this.
Is there an easy way to elevate the MSI installation so that it will attempt to
setup the share using local admin privileges? If I assign the tool's user's
permission ( which is what the tool uses to install the msi) to the folder, it
works, but then I have to remove those permissions, which makes it a hassle.
Using Wix 3, code is below. Thanks - Pierson
<Directory Id="EmailShareDir" Name="EmailShare">
<Component Id="EmailShareComponent"
Guid="{ZZZZZZZZ-ZZZZ-ZZZZ-ZZZZ-ZZZZZZZZZZZZ}">
<CreateFolder Directory="EmailShareDir">
<Permission User="[SERVICE_USERNAME]"
GenericAll="yes" TakeOwnership="yes"/>
</CreateFolder>
<util:FileShare Id="EmailShareFileShare"
Name="EmailShare" Description="Email Share ">
<util:FileSharePermission User="ShareUser"
GenericAll="yes" TakeOwnership="yes" />
</util:FileShare>
</Component>
</Directory>
