wixwix-iisextension

Is it possible for wix to add entries to IIS's ISAPI and CGI Restrictions?


I'm writing a wix installer for a website, which includes ISAPI filters that need to be added into IIS manager's ISAPI and CGI Restrictions entries. Is this possible in wix? Must I use a custom action?


Solution

  • It looks like I should be able to do this using <iis:WebServiceExtension> Even though that page says "The WebServiceExtension property is used by the Web server to determine whether a Web service extension is permitted to run", that might not be accurate since it will also be used to create a new entry.
