问题 I am building an installer with InstallShield. It is a basic MSI project (I'd rather not have any dependencies on InstallShield that might make it more difficult to move to WiX in the future).

问题 How to do Text file changes in a ZIP file in InstallShield Basic MSI project. I am not able to do Text file changes in a file which is inside a zipped file. 回答1: InstallShield does not offer this capability, at least not now. You will have to either surround the call to the text-file-changing custom action with ones that extract and replace the zipped file (the text file changes would operate on the temporary copy), or implement the whole thing yourself in one step.

问题 Does InstallShield 2012 have built-in capabilities to install Web Applications? This would include configuring IIS, App Pool accounts etc. Does anyone know of any tutorials to do this? 回答1: Yes, just use the IIS View (Designer) It looks alot like the IIS Mgmt Tool and you just go and define all your IIS Objects and attributes. InstallShield takes care of the rest. 回答2: The Limited Edition (free) version cannot manage IIS application pools, Web service extensions, etc. The paid versions can.
