Initial Comment:
Hi,

This feature is important aspect of automatic setup building. Today we have Heat that can harvest info from files and translate them into Wix. The problem is that not all the data can be harvested, some data will always be written by the end user.
This forces to use Heat as a prestep when creating setups. You run heat, copy the generated file into Votive and modifiied it accroding to your needs. A Powerful feature will be if the file will be harvested during compile time and the user will not modify it. instead the wxs file will automatically be added to Votive and the user will write it's addition to a in a different file; the linker will combine all the partial s into a single one.

I think there is not need to say how impotent it is to prevent setup issues. Preventing from the user to recreate setup data that is already part of selfreg dll/exe/tlb by letting tools to-do all the grange work will make Wix more user finally and less error prune.

Summary: Pyro does not find .AllowRemoval property

Initial Comment:
msi.dll!Patch.BuildPairedTransform has a bug when trying to find the AllowRemoval property in the MsiPatchMetadata table. Even though it's defined in the MsiPatchMetadata table, it is not found and instead a property is always added to the patch transform where AllowRemoval is 0.

Note this is for pyro, but there is no category currently for this.

Summary: XmlFile|Config doesn't preserve existing XML format

Initial Comment:
Hi Devs,

XmlFile|XmlConfig actions when changing existing files are reformatting them using tab indention, causing the whole file content to differ.
Please use pixd->put_preserveWhiteSpace(VARIANT_TRUE) as in attached patch (see attachments) for every time you open file with IXMLDOMDocument.

Alternatively you can setup whitespace preservation as a parameter to XmlFile|XmlConfig, but I think if you at least respect actual XML file format this would be enough and make happy all WiX users.

Note: Even Microsoft and you don't use tabs for XML formatting of your files.. so forcing XML to be indented with tabs when doing XmlFile is IMHO a bug.

I'm jabberd2 (XMPP service daemon) Windows version maintainer. Currently I'm preparing advanced installer of jabberd2 using WiX. I'm using XmlFile to change some entries on XML config files on setup.

Jabberd config files are quite complicated and having lots of comments, lots of commented out sections, etc. And most important thing they're not using tab indention as it is by default in MSXML.

After XmlFile does the change, and because preserveWhiteSpace of XMLDOMDocument is off, it does reformat of all into the tabbed indention, ruining the whole outline of commented out sections, and making the file look different.

This is major showstopper for me, cause XML files are heart of jabberd2, so now I'm using my custom built WiX with the patch below.

I'd be glad if you update the WiX with proposed changes (or any close alternative), so anybody else that's building jabberd2 have the same MSI output file as me.

See attached patch,

Thanks for great WiX!

Summary: Problem referencing existing website to create vDir

Initial Comment:
Referencing an existing website to create a virtual directory does not work with the WixIisExtension. Example:



...






The virtual directory is always created under the default website rather than the referenced website.

COM+ installation support (Pubca) described in the Wix 3.0 documentation, but it does not support.

Summary: WebAppPool Fails on IIS < 6.0

Initial Comment:
An installer that attempts to set the WebAppPool of a WebApplication will fail with a rollback under Windows XP, but it works fine under Windows Server 2003. I think the correct behavior is for the installer to just ignore the WebAppPool setting. I believe this is the same bug as has been fixed in WiX 2.0 under case number 1213273, as I can do the same thing without any problems under WiX 2.0.

Summary: spelling mistake in WixUI_en-us.wxl for "privileges"

Initial Comment:
The word "privileges" is misspelled in the file:

src/ext/UIExtension/wixlib/WixUI_en-us.wxl

Below are the two lines involved with the spelling mistake "priveleges".

src/ext/UIExtension/wixlib/WixUI_en-us.wxl:116: [ProductName] will be installed in a per-user folder and be available just for your user account. You do not need local Administrator priveleges.


src/ext/UIExtension/wixlib/WixUI_en-us.wxl:119: [ProductName] will be installed in a per-machine folder by default and be available for all users. You can change the default installation folder. You must have local Administrator priveleges.
