I have created a custom Rewrite Provider for IIS 7 following instructions in this article: Developing a Custom Rewrite Provider for URL Rewrite Module

To simplify deployment, I have created a VS2010 Setup Project and configured it to deploy my assembly to GAC.

enter image description here

When I run the installer, it completes successfully, and appears to be registered the assembly in GAC (I have verified using gacutil.exe /l).

However, when I go to IIS Manager to register the new rewrite provider it is not displayed in the list of available providers.

I have also tried to install the assembly manually using gacutil.exe /if. This does work and makes assembly visible in the list of available providers in IIS Manager.

Am I missing some sort of configuration in my Setup Project?
