[WiX-users] Using pkgmgr to install IIS 7

[kim]

Hello,

I am using following custom action to install IIS 7 using .msi if its not
already installed on targeted system. I am getting following errror and my
installation fails. I have used quite a few CA in my msi and all work well.
However for this one I am not able to figure out what the problem could be?
Executing this command directly on cmd prompt works perfect.
Can anyone provide any suggestions as to what am i doing wrong?

Targeted OS: Windows 7 -32 bit

CustomAction Code:
<Property Id="INSTALLIISPROP" Value="[SystemFolder]"></Property>
<CustomAction Id="InstallIISCA" Return="check"

Hello,

Here's a completely wild and uneducated guest, but I think you might need the ExeCommand attribute to be ExeCommand="cmd /c start /w..."

Thanks for you reply John.

I did changed the ExeCommand as you mentioned but still the same errror: Any
more suggestions as how to achieve this. Almost spent a day trying to make
this work!

Try to set full paths for cmd and pkgmgr. You can also try to use WiX Quiet Execution Custom Action, it will show output of the command line in the log (to see verbose log from WiX ca set LOGVERBOSE=1 on command line).

Thanks for the reply Maksim. Can you please give me an example of how to
provide full path?

I changed the value for INSTALLIISPROP from [SystemFolder] to
"C:\Windows\System32\pkgmgr.exe".

But it gives error: Operation Failed. A parameter is incorrect.

<Property Id="INSTALLIISPROP"
Value="C:\Windows\System32\pkgmgr.exe"></Property>
<CustomAction Id="InstallIISCA" Return="check" Property="INSTALLIISPROP"
Execute="deferred" Impersonate="yes" ExeCommand="CMD /C start /w pkgmgr
/iu:IIS-WebServerRole;IIS-WebServer;IIS-CommonHttpFeatures;
IIS-StaticContent;IIS-DefaultDocument;IIS-DirectoryBrowsing;IIS-HttpErrors;WAS-WindowsActivationService;WAS-ProcessModel;WAS-NetFxEnvironment;WAS-ConfigurationAPI;NetFx3"></CustomAction>

Please advice.

[kim]

I figured it out!!

Posting the solution in case anyone else needs the same :-)


<Property Id="INSTALLIISPROP"
Value="C:\Windows\System32\dism.exe"></Property>
<CustomAction Id="InstallIISCA" Return="check"
Property="INSTALLIISPROP" Execute="deferred" HideTarget="yes"
Impersonate="yes"
ExeCommand="/Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:IIS-WebServerRole
.....(all remaining parameters) />
