InstallShield 2010 - 1603 Fatal Error [Windows Installer] (Windows 7 Only)

Question

Hi all,

I created an MSI InstalScript Project where i deploy a web based (ASP.NET) precompiled project copying the files during installation in the \inetpub\wwwroot\projectnamefolder, creating an AppPool and the virtual dir of course in the IIS. The setup works great in windows XP Pro (SP3 i used). But soon as i try in Windows 7 (tried Ultimate and Home Premium) i get a -1603 Fatal Error during installation...Windows Installer Help (MSI.chm) or MSDN for more info....

Dying to fix this...

[Edit] I think error occurs when trying to create the Application in the IIS.

[FIXED] Enable 32 Bit Apllications needs to be true when creating Application Pools through InstallShield in a 64 bit OS!

Answer 1

No permission. See this MS support article So you have write access to the directory but does the account have permissions to modify the IIS settings?
