[wix-users] IIS / SQL Configuration Wizard Frameworks

[Christopher Painter]

Sure, the IIS part is pretty easy.  I've managed to get the customer requirements narrow (standardized) enough to just use the IIS Extension.

It's the SQL that's a bear.  I've implemented a stock/override pattern for the connection string so that's handled.  The final piece is database change management.  I really want to keep all of that out of the installer and not an installer concern.  I'm looking for some frameworks they can build a custom application on top of to handle  initial database provisioning, security,  backup scheduling and  schema migrations to.  I'd like to just put a shortcut to this utility on the desktop (like TFS Admin Console)  and keep the installer as simple as possible.

I use Microsoft.Web.Administration.  I'm not sure if that is what you are looking for.

I'm working on an installer for an IIS/ASP.NET MSSQL application.  Due to the wide number of ways IIS and the datatier could be configured, I was hoping to keep configuration out of the installer.  I like the way Team Foundation Server did it's post installation configuration wizard.  Does anyone know of any open source frameworks or projects to build upon?
