Installing indexing services and MSMQ

[Jagdishk]

I want to install indexing services and MSMQ through custom action in installshield .
I am able to manually run this command and MSMQ and indexing services are installshield.
START /WAIT DISM /online /enable-feature /featurename:Indexing-Service-Package
START /WAIT DISM /online /enable-feature/featurename:MSMQ-Triggers

I want to know how through custom action in installshield can i do?

I would write these as setup prerequsites or a suite installer. That way it shows in the list of things to be installed ( and validated ) prior to starting your MSI. Cleaner that way.

Here's some articles to read:

Take the above as generic advice. You've worked out the command line, now you'll have to work out the artifact to decide if it can be and needs to be installed.

Sometimes Flexera releases expansion packs for PRQs. They might have already released one for IIS. I'm not sure as I don't keep up on things as much as I used to.
