Hi Mike, I opened two bug reports: #2942234 for Wix 3.5 and #2942229 for Wix 3.0.
Many thanks for your effort, Matteo -----Original Message----- From: Mike Carlson (DEV DIV) <mica...@mi...> - 2010-01-29 10:17 The IIS7-specific code (which only exists in WiX 3.5) and the IIS6 code (which exists in both 3.0 and 3.5) are completely different codepaths. Please file 2 bugs on sourceforge (one for the error 3.0 gives, one for 3.5), and we'll take a look. Try to include as much information about how to reproduce the problem as you can in the bug, and the log excerpts you've already provided in this e-mail are perfect; make sure to include those in your bug reports too.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Creation of an application pool on IIS7 installed on a server cluster Hi Mike, Many thanks for your reply. You are right, I'm sorry: information I sent you refers to a try with Wix 3.5. I upgraded to Wix 3.5 in order to see if my problem was solved but nothing happened. Here is a part of the log generated for a try with an installation for the product MyProduct packaged with Wix 3.0: Action 12.38.45: StartMetabaseTransaction.

I don't believe the "WriteIIS7ConfigChanges" custom action existed until WiX 3.5. Regardless, looks to me like a bug; I'd file one on sourceforge with as much repro information as you can.

Subject: [WiX-users] Creation of an application pool on IIS7 installed on a server cluster Hi to everybody, I'm struggling against an issue since last week and I need help. Fatcs follows: I created a MSI for an application using Wix 3.0.5419.0 RTM. This MSI creates also some web virtual directories and an application pool on the IIS server and all works fine. My troubles started when I tried to install my application on a server cluster: the MSI tries to configure the IIS and then the installation stops with errors. The error I found in my log is: Action 12.09.32: StartIIS7ConfigTransaction. Starting IIS Config Transaction Action 12.09.32: RollbackIIS7ConfigTransaction. Rolling back IIS Config Transaction Action 12.09.32: CommitIIS7ConfigTransaction. Committing IIS Config Transaction Action 12.09.32: WriteIIS7ConfigChanges. Installing Config Keys and Values WriteIIS7ConfigChanges: Error 0x80070005: Failed to Commit IIS Config Changes WriteIIS7ConfigChanges: Error 0x80070005: WriteIIS7ConfigChanges Failed. Action ended 12.09.32: InstallFinalize. Return value 3. Here then rollback starts. Operating system is Windows Server 2008 64 bit and the cluster is realized with Microsoft Failover Clustering. I know that configuration files for IIS7 on a cluster aren't placed in the usual place, maybe is this the problem? And if the problem is the location of configuration files of IIS installed on a server cluster, how can I instruct Windows Installer via Wix about where to find those installation files? Any help is very appreciated, Thank in advance, Matteo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
