Has anyone managed to use this module with success, i'm running 32bit Windows 7, where i have opened an administrator shell using run as administrator, i have imported the WebAdministration module and then attempted to use the commands with some issues, have provided two examples here
Websites
I created a web site with the following command
new-website -name testsite -port 80 -hostheader testsite -physicalpath c:\temp
Then i attempted to get the sites details using the command get-website -name testsite but it always returns all sites, seems to ignore the -name parameter. Only way i can get the site is using a filter
get-website | ? { $_.name -eq 'testsite' } | get-member
When i use appcmd it works as expected using the following command
C:\> C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list site testsite
AppPools
When i try to list the apppools using the following command
dir iis:\apppools
i get the following error
Get-ChildItem : Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
Yet when i use appcmd as follows i get all the apppools as expected without any error
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list apppool
Has anyone successfully managed to use the WebAdministration module ?
Thanks in advance
