Steven,

Just to show you how I done it within WiX: :)

                <CustomAction Id="Enable32BitAppPool_Cmd"
Property="Enable32BitAppPool"
Value="&quot;[SystemFolder]inetsrv\appcmd&quot; set apppool 
/apppool.name:&quot;Map_Pool&quot; /enable32BitAppOnWin64:true"
Execute="immediate"/>
                <CustomAction Id="Enable32BitAppPool" BinaryKey="WixCA"
DllEntry="CAQuietExec" Execute="deferred" Return="check" Impersonate="no"/>

I am using a custom action for that (I set mine to false) however after our 
product was released I saw this post:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11687870/wix-installer-always-changes-app
pool-to-enable-32bit-app

below is my custom action just in case...

[CustomAction]
        public static ActionResult Enable32BitApplicationPool(Session
session)
        {
            try
            {
                if (session == null)
                {
                    throw new ArgumentNullException("session");
                }

                var tempString = GetSessionProperty(session, 
"CustomActionData", false);
                var parts = tempString.Split(new[] { '|' });
                var applicationPool = parts[0];
                const string Quote = "\"";
                var cmdLineParameters = "set apppool /apppool.name:" + Quote
+ applicationPool + Quote + " /enable32BitAppOnWin64:false";

                var cmdLineExe =
Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System),
"inetsrv\\appcmd.exe");

                // Prepare the process to run
                var startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
                {
                    UseShellExecute = true,
                    Arguments = cmdLineParameters,
                    FileName = cmdLineExe,
                    WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden,
                    CreateNoWindow = true
                };

                // Run the external process & wait for it to finish
                using (Process proc = Process.Start(startInfo))
                {
                    proc.WaitForExit();
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                WriteErrorLogInstall(session, "Enable32BitApplicationPool
failed: ", ex, true);
            }

            return ActionResult.Success;
        }

Hi John,

I haven't done anything regarding permissions, although I am writing to it on a 
different component and that seems to be working. 

I am not trying to create a AppPool as I am using the default, I am just trying 
to change the enable32BitAppOnWin64 from false to true.

Thanks

1) I assume you have previously obtained permissions to the IIS [7-8] 
applicationHost.config file.  Not just anybody can write to it.

2) It looks like you're creating an AppPool the hard way.  One of the things 
the IIS Extension does really well is create AppPools.  I would use the IIS 
Extension unless there's a compelling reason not to.

3) here's how I use util:XmlConfig:

&lt;util:XmlConfig Id="DeleteErrorSinkSinks" Action="delete"
ElementPath="/logging/categories/error"
File="[#FileEnterpriseLoggingConfig]" Node="element" On="install"
Sequence="10" VerifyPath="/logging/categories/error/sinks" /&gt; 
&lt;util:XmlConfig Id="WriteErrorSink" Action="create"
ElementPath="/logging/categories/error"
File="[#FileEnterpriseLoggingConfig]" Node="document" On="install"
Sequence="11" Value="[ERROR_INNERTEXT]" /&gt;

Subject: [WiX-users] Setting a value XmlConfig

Hi I am trying to change a value setting in a config file using the
following:

    <Component Id="Enable32BitAppPoolComponent" Guid="*"
Directory="INSTALLLOCATION">

        <CreateFolder/>

        <util:XmlConfig Id="Enable32BitAppPool" Node="value"

 
ElementPath="//configuration/system.applicationHost/applicationPools/add[\[]
@name='DefaultAppPool'[\]]/@enable32BitAppOnWin64"

                      File="[inetsrv]\config\applicationHost.config"

                      Value="true" On="install"/>

    </Component>

This code does not change the value in the applicationHost.config file. I tried 
adding the action="create" but I then got the error during the setup that it 
could not open the XML file. What am I doing wrong?
