Normal in our coding, we encounter this situation that we need WebsiteId and all further actions are dependant on Website ID
Inorder to retrieve WebSiteId from webSitename , here is the code.
///
///
/// Name of the IIS server e.g. localhost /// Name of the website e.g. test ///
/// Less the 0, site does not exist
/// Id of the existing site
///
public int GetWebSiteId(string serverName, string websiteName)
{
int result = -1;
DirectoryEntry w3svc = new DirectoryEntry(string.Format(“IIS://{0}/w3svc”, serverName));
foreach (DirectoryEntry site in w3svc.Children)
{
if (site.Properties[“ServerComment”] != null)
{
if (site.Properties[“ServerComment”].Value != null)
{
if (string.Compare(site.Properties[“ServerComment”].Value.ToString(), websiteName, false) == 0)
{
result = site.Name;
break;
}
}
}
}
return result;
}
Happy Coding..
