Seems that I solved the problem by re-generating Product Update code because the second AI project was based on the first one and the Update Product code was the same.

Hi Catalin,

Seems that "Get-Property cmdlet" is what I need.
Thanks a lot!

Hi Catalin,

Unfortunately, I have a string name of the property and I want to get it value that set in AI Properties.
Looks like PowerShell inline script is not my option at all.

Hi Catalin, I thought that the line below adds a folder as Temp folder, because *.aip project does not contain it if I am not running PowerShell COM configuration script: $newFolder = $project.PredefinedFolders.Temporary.CreateFolder("CreditorServiceAPI") I understand your suggestion, but ...

Regards,
Andrey

Hi Catalin, Thanks for the answer, but it is a bit different scenario. I have a config file (Web.config) that will be added dynamically to *.aip by Power Shell COM: $project.FilesComponent.AddFolderContents("APPDIR", $sourceFolder) Before installation process (copying files to target folde...

The below setting (web.config file) should be upated to ...

Hi Daniel, You are correct, general request is to have an ability to install dynamic list of services and configure appropriate Web Apps & App Pools for them. I want to build a generic *.aip file that can be used for a multiple Web services installation, by passing some list of services to insta...

Hi Catalin.

Thanks for that.

It might be really useful feature, because currently if something "heavy" is called in background (like EXE or any custom action) it is not clear for user why the progress is not budging.
