IISAdmin Sample

  • Article

Note

Indexing Service is no longer supported as of Windows XP and is unavailable for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use Windows Search for client side search and Microsoft Search Server Express for server side search.

 

The IISAdmin sample is a set of HTML and ASP forms that demonstrates how to use IIS to administer Indexing Service. The forms retrieve indexing statistics, force a master merge, rescan paths, and check for documents that could not be filtered.

Source: mssdk\samples\winbase\indexing\IISAdmin\

To install the sample files

  1. Open a command window and change the directory to the source path of the sample.
  2. At the command-line prompt, type "install".

Note

The sample files are copied to the directory %windir%\system32\inetsrv\iisadmin\isadmin.

 

To use the sample forms

  1. Start Microsoft Internet Explorer.
  2. Enter the URL "https://localhost/iisadmin/isadmin/admin.htm".
  3. In the left frame, select the desired administration operation.

Programming Notes

The forms in the IISAdmin sample require that IIS be running.

The main sample form is admin.htm, which controls all the administrative operations.
