i am interested in creating a setup tool for our business application which is based on a Windows Service and some WF4 workflows, currently hosted in IIS/AppFabric.
As long as i want to provide the best possible installing experience to our customers, I want to include IIS and Appfabric Setup Prerequirements as well as a WindowsService application into one Application-Setup Project.
Is there a proper way of doing this? Can someone give me some Links and/or Tips?
best regards,
Chris
The standard approach is to build a Deployment Package and import that into IIS. Is uses Web Deploy, see http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9278654 for more details.
