Question

I am using iis express 7.5. I ran the following to create a new website:

& 'C:\Program Files\IIS Express\appcmd.exe' add site /name:comm-app /id:2 /bindings:http/*:80:comm-app.local /physicalPath:C:\G_Drive\code\iis\www\CommunicationApp\public

I found this config was added to the config file in my documents folder here:

C:\Users\me\Documents\IISExpress\config\applicationhost.config

Then I decided to install the IIS console on my box and use that instead, but after installing and open the IIS console I can't see my new website. When look at the configuration editor I in the console I can see it is using the config file in the windows\system32\inetsrv.. directory: enter image description here

Which config file is iis express actually using and how can I edit it with the console?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I should have mentioned before that immediately after installing iis express I install Zend server 6 (which I believe makes some config changes).

It appears my iis express is using the config file in the system folder and is working correctly.

If anyone else is using iis express with zend server maybe this will be helpful info.
