I just want to mention, that in my case the culprit for the long installation time was the "!" value in the MsiLogging parameter. Maybe somebody runs into the same problem.

Codeplex feels a lot like abandonware. I get all sorts of errors pulling with Hg and almost zero success trying to get SVN out of it. Most of the time it can't even keep me logged in. :/ The only way I...

I just started using this 1/15/16. We have large web sites that need to be harvested. I've looked through the docs, but can't find anything about that.

I am not sure what exactly you are trying to ask but if you want to deploy a Web site on IIS then you should have a look at the Wix# code samples. There is an IIS sample as well.
