Wrapped the projects into Microsoft installer (msi)

5/14/2007 9:03:04 PM

I just installed the Web Deployment Projects. It is working great,

However, How can I wrapped the deployed project into an installer? Would it possible from Web Deployment project directly? Purpose: other developers can just run the installer into their own boxes to install the project easily.

Thanks for any feedback!

Hi Frank,

After creating the Web Deployment Project and building it successfully, we can add a ?Web Setup Project? in current solution for creating the installation package (msi). For the detailed steps, please refer to the link below:

I read Scott's articles and they were very helpful. I also noticed the excellent options in WDP (e.g. overlay virtual directory definition especially). I need an msi install which does the virtual directory overwrite. When I create the Web Setup Project, it doesn't touch an existing Virtual Directory.
