IIS website size using DirectoryEntry

Question

Hello,

I am using the following code to loop through my websites in IIS:

DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://localhost/W3SVC");
foreach (DirectoryEntry directory in root.Children)
{
    if (directory.SchemaClassName.Equals("IIsWebServer"))
    {
        // ...
    }
}

What I would like to do is use the available information to get the exact size of the directory of each website. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Thanks!

public static void EnumerateWebsites()
   {
      try
      {
         DirectoryEntry w3svc = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://localhost/w3svc");
         
         foreach(DirectoryEntry de in w3svc.Children)
         {
            if(de.SchemaClassName == "IIsWebServer")
            {
                Console.WriteLine(de.Name);
            }         
         }
      }
      catch(Exception ex)
      {
         Console.WriteLine("Error in EnumerateWebsites: " + ex.Message);
      }
   }

static string GetIISSiteName(string iisHost, string serverComment)
    {
        string adsiPath = iisHost + "/W3SVC";
        DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry(adsiPath);
        foreach (DirectoryEntry site in entry.Children)
        {
            if (site.SchemaClassName == "IIsWebServer" &&
                site.Properties["ServerComment"].Value
                .ToString().Equals(serverComment))
            {
                return site.Name;
            }
        }

        return "";
    }


    static string GetVirtualDirPath(string iisHost,
                                    string siteName, string vdName)
    {
        string adsiPath = iisHost + "/W3SVC/" + siteName + "/Root/" + vdName;

        try
        {
            DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry(adsiPath);
            return entry.Properties["Path"].Value.ToString();
        }
        catch(Exception ex)
        {
            // If Virtual Directory is not found,
            // it will throw exception.
            return "";
        }

        return "";
    }

public static long DirSize(DirectoryInfo d) 
    {    
        long Size = 0;    
        // Add file sizes.
        FileInfo[] fis = d.GetFiles();
        foreach (FileInfo fi in fis) 
        {      
            Size += fi.Length;    
        }
        // Add subdirectory sizes.
        DirectoryInfo[] dis = d.GetDirectories();
        foreach (DirectoryInfo di in dis) 
        {
            Size += DirSize(di);   
        }
        return(Size);  
    }

Answer 2

Thanks for your reply, however, you aren't showing how you call the 'DirSize' method. How do I get DirectoryInfo from a DirectoryEntry? Edit: Also, DirectoryEntry does not seem to have the property Path, although you are using it in your example.

Answer 3

1. Get the list of websites
2. Get virtual path
2. Get the physical path of website
3. Get the Directory size

Answer 4

1. Get the list of websites
2. Get virtual path
2. Get the physical path of website
3. Get the Directory size

These two steps are exactly the problem and you do not seem to have provided the code to do this. I can get the Virtual Path, but need the Physical Path.

Answer 5

Perhaps I need to be more clear?

The problem is that I am unable to get the physical path of a website.

The only way I found to do this was by using the Server.MapPath():string method, but the application I am working on is a console application and not an asp.net application.

Thanks

Hi,

The code works here:

//_portNumber is the port number of the website
//_name is the name of the virtual directory
        public string GetVirtualDirectory(string _portNumber, string _name)
        {
            
            string identifier = null;

            DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://LOCALHOST/W3SVC");
            foreach (DirectoryEntry e in root.Children)
            {
                if (e.SchemaClassName == "IIsWebServer")
                {
                    foreach (object property in e.Properties["ServerBindings"])
                    {
                        if (property.Equals(":" + _portNumber + ":"))
                        {
                            identifier = e.Name;
       break;
                        }
                    }

      if(identifier != null)
      {
          break;
      }
                }
            }

     if(identifier != null)
     {
         identifier = "1";
     }

            DirectoryEntry de = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://LOCALHOST/W3SVC/" + identifier + "/ROOT/" + _name);
            string path = (string)de.Properties["Path"].Value;
            return path;
        }

The code is excerpted from a chinese website:

Answer 7

Thanks for the reply again, but this method is not working.

Also, the method name clearly says GetVirtualDirectory while I need the Physical path.

As stated above, I already have the code needed to iterate through my websites:

            foreach (DirectoryEntry directory in root.Children)
            {
                if (directory.SchemaClassName.Equals("IIsWebServer"))
                {





                }
            }

Answer 8

Hi,

Well, the comment to the method is :"getting the local path of the virtual path", maybe the method is not named properly.

I tested the code here , and it works .
 Please have a try :)
