AdminSite.Create Method

The Create method creates a Commerce Server site and optionally creates an application and the Config\SQL\SqlSvr and Config\SQL\Oracle subdirectories.

Syntax

AdminSite.Create(ServerInstance, VirtualDirectory, Directory, IsApplication, IsCommerceSite)

Parameters

ServerInstance

Numeric value expressed as a string. Represents a Web site (an instance of the Web server). To obtain a list of server instances, use the GetWebSites method of the AdminWebServer object. For the default Web site, use "1".

VirtualDirectory

String. The Commerce Server site short name (virtual directory).

Directory

String. The physical directory where you want the site.

IsApplication

Boolean. If True, the application is created for the site (this is the same as launching Internet Service Manager, selecting a virtual directory, viewing its properties, and then in the Application Settings section on the Virtual Directory tab, clicking Create). This setting must be True for a Commerce Server site.

IsCommerceSite

Boolean. If True, the method marks the site for administration by Commerce Server and creates the Directory\Config\SQL\SqlSvr and Directory\Config\SQL\Oracle subdirectories. If False, creates the top level Directory only.

Example

The following example calls the AdminSite object's Create method to create an entry in the site object namespace. The SzSite argument contains the site short name, and szSiteRoot contains the physical directory.

AdminSite.Create "1", szSite, szSiteRoot, true, true
