SYMPTOMS

You cannot use the AppGetStatus method in a script to administer Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.1.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

AppGetStatus is an IIS Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI) method call that you can use to check the current status of a Web site. The IIS method call AppGetStatus is still available through ADSI, but you cannot use it in scripts. The AppGetStatus method can still be called from a program that is written in C++.

The IIS ADSI method call AppGetStatus2 has replaced AppGetStatus and you can run this from a script. AppGetStatus2 supplies identical functionality as AppGetStatus.

The following code is a scripting sample using AppGetStatus2: 
<% 
  Dim DirObj, vStatus 
  Set DirObj = GetObject("IIS://LocalHost/W3SVC/1/ROOT/MyAppDir") 
  'Get the status of the application. 
  vReturn = DirObj.AppGetStatus2 
%>
