I don't know how to tell if the legacy administration is installed.  To
install it via the GUI, start "Programs and Features", click "Turn
Windows features on or off" then drill down through IIS and Web
Management tools and make sure that "IIS 6 Management Compatibility" is
checked.  To install it via the command line, use OCSetup.exe with the
right command line arguments.  To figure out what those arguments should
be, download the WAIK (Windows Automated Installation Kit) which should
document the arguments for each of the Windows features.  Searching for
"WAIK" may also do the trick.

 

Good luck!

I check the value of the MajorVersion entry in the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\InetStp registry key.

Is there a way to check for the "legacy administration objects"?  Also,
how do you install them?

So does this mean that these custom actions don't work on Vista?

Is there anything I can do to get them to work as a temporary measure?

What are "legacy administration objects"?

Maybe one day we'll update the IIS custom actions to not require that on
Vista.  It's a pretty large work item though.

I have completed the an installer that installs a ASP.Net 2.0 web
application.  It works fine in Windows 2003 Server but fails on Vista
with the error message:

Cannot connect to the Internet Information Server.
(-2147221164       ) 

In the log file, the detail for the failure is:

ConfigureIIs:  failed to get IID_IMSAdminBase Object
Error 26001. Cannot connect to Internet Information Server.
(-2147221164         )

Is there anything special needed for Vista installs of a web site in IIS
using WiX? 

John
