Hi, I wonder if anybody has an idea how to conditionally add a group to a user that is created during install? I am creating an user to run an IIS web application (well 5 actually). I need to target different versions of IIS, and it turns out I need to add the user to different groups for each version of IIS. Groups are IIS_WRG for IIS6.0, IIS_IUSRS for II7.0, and don't even ask about XP.
I have lots of permissions assigned to the user, so I do not want to have to create different users for each version of IIS, and all the associate permissions (10+) that go with the user. Therefore I want to create the user once, and reference many times. The Util:Group must be nested within a Util:User, so I thought of creating a Util:User tag create the user with the same name, and to assign the group in components with conditions for IIS versions. This doesn't work because the order that the user tags are evaluated seem to be arbitrary, and therefore the installer tries to assign a group to a user that does not exist at that point. What would be really handy is a Util:UserRef tag. Is this feasibility possible (i.e. doesn't hit limitations imposed by MSI)? Secondly, is there a more sensible way to do this? I am using the latest WIX 3.0 Thanks in advance, Olly ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
