IIS: Upgrade from IS2009 to IS2010, Issue on upgraded project

[moinkhan]

Hi,

We recently upgraded our Basic MSI Installer from IS2009 Project to IS2010 Project, everything seems to be upgraded without any error or warning, the installer has extensive numbers of Virtual Directories for IIS6, the issue is during creating those Virtual Directories majority works fine but few of them cause problem while setting up the VD Path property, instead of setting up the path, installer write down the Directory Identifier name, for example the path is "C:\Program Files\MyApp" instead it write down "MyApp" which is the directory identifier, this is an serious issue as the installer didnt generate any runtime error, but installed application failed with this configuration issue. Is there any known issue? the same project works with IS2009.
Any help is higly appreciated.

thanks,

-Moin Khan

Hi Moin,

On the General tab for Release which you are working on, try setting 'Keep Unused Directories' to yes and then rebuild the project.

Thanks,
