IIS Automation

[Mick Walker]

Hi All,

We are trying to automate the deployment of clients websites using IIS.
At the moment we can create a new virtual directory on the server using:

//Create a virtual directory

System.EnterpriseServices.Internal.IISVirtualRoot vr = new
System.EnterpriseServices.Internal.IISVirtualRoot();

string sError;
vr.Create("IIS://localhost/W3SVC/1/Root",@"C:\Demos\WebServices\","WebServices",out
sError);

Does anyone know how we can actually create a new website, binding it to
the default port?

Regards
Mick Walker

Hi Mick

You might be able to this using a Web Setup Project.
Otherwise, if you need to do it through code then check out
System.DirectoryServices

I agree. You really should use Web Setup for your app.
But if you really really can't do it, and are sure about it, you could check
this:

Here is an article about an explorer context menu utility that will show most
of the code you need:
