What needs to be done to modify this script to set allowed extensions by the website and not globally.
appcmd set config /section:requestfiltering /+fileExtensions.[fileextension='string',allowed='true | false']
This is how you target individual sites.
appcmd set config "SITE_NAME_HERE" /section:system.webServer/security/requestFiltering /fileExtensions.[fileExtension='.json'].allowed:true

I created a script using appcmd.exe to setup my FastCGI application in IIS. They work but I am unsure about a few details. Some of the options in the below commands have been shortened for clarity.
Some of the command details start with a slash and some with a dash. Which is the preferred style? Also, I am not clear on which ones require /commit and which do not. Note that I have a delete command so that I can run the script multiple times.
appcmd.exe delete vdir /vdir.name:"Default Web Site/pbcgi"
appcmd.exe add vdir /app.name:"Default Web Site/" /path:/pbcgi /physicalPath:"C:\TopwizWeb"
appcmd.exe set config /section:system.webServer/handlers /accessPolicy:Read,Script,Execute /commit:apphost
appcmd.exe clear config -section:system.webServer/handlers -"[name='TopwizWeb FastCGI']"
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/handlers /+"[name='TopwizWeb FastCGI', path='*.pbcgi']"
appcmd.exe clear config -section:system.webServer/fastCgi -"[fullPath='C:..\TopwizWeb.exe']"
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/fastCgi /+"[fullPath='C:..\TopwizWeb.exe', maxInstances='4']" /commit:apphost
You have asked, "Some of the command details start with a slash and some with a dash. Which is the preferred style?"
I try to refer to official documents.
Getting Started with AppCmd.exe
AppCmd.exe
The first link shows the use of '/' whereas the second link shows the use of '-' with the parameters of the Appcmd command.
While checking other online articles, I noticed the majority of the article shows examples using '/'.
As both ways are supported, you could prefer which is suitable for you.
If we talk about the /commit then it is used for controlling the location of configuration changes.
What is the value of site name in the following code when we get a error like this as shown
appcmd set config ["SITE_NAME"] /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true
HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden
The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.
Most likely causes:
A default document is not configured for the requested URL, and directory browsing is not enabled on the server.
Things you can try:
If you do not want to enable directory browsing, ensure that a default document is configured and that the file exists.
Enable directory browsing.
Go to the IIS Express install directory.
Run appcmd set config /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true to enable directory browsing at the server level.
Run appcmd set config ["SITE_NAME"] /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true to enable directory browsing at the site level.
Verify that the configuration/system.webServer/directoryBrowse#enabled attribute is set to true in the site or application configuration file.
If you are able to use AppCmd, then use AppCmd list sites to dump out all the configured sites. You'll need to select the correct one (if there are more than one) based on the binding information.
You get this error because the website does not have the 'Directory Browsing' feature enabled.
Firstly you need to check that you install directory browsing feature or not.Then you could enable directory browsing by following ways:
Using IIS manager console window:
1)Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
2)From the Connection Pane select Site name for which you want to enable directory browsing.
3)From Feature View Select Directory Browsing.
4)In the Actions pane, click Enable.
You could also set this by using the command prompt:
1)Open a command prompt as administrator.
2)Run below command:
appcmd set config "urlsample" /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true
appcmd set config ["SITE_NAME"] /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true
In ["SITE_NAME"] you need to specify the name of your site which you set in IIS.
You could also set in web.config file under the system.webserver section:
<directoryBrowse enabled="true" />
You could also refer below article for more detail:

I know this question has been already asked but it didn't work for me.
When I run the command:
appcmd set config /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true
I have the following error:
The command appcmd was not found, but does exist in the current location. Windows PowerShell does not load commands from the current location by default.
At his point I don't know what to do. How can I run the command?
I would try it at the site level first, Run with elevated permission i.e. Run as Administrator
Enable directory browsing at the site level
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express\"
run this appcmd.exe set config "Contoso Some SITE NAME" -section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:"True" /showFlags:"Date, Time, Size, Extension"
check to turn off encryption and read only in folder options
Note: Run with elevated permission
GUI version from Microsoft site for other versions:
On the Start screen, move the pointer all the way to the lower left
corner, right-click the Start button, and then click Control Panel.
In Control Panel, click Programs and Features, and then click Turn
Windows features on or off.
Expand Internet Information Services,
expand World Wide Web Services, expand Common HTTP Features, and
then select Directory Browsing.
Click OK.
Click Close.
If it still does not work, then try & delete all the IIS cache and repeat the above
I previously answered this, and it works well here for the majority of people
Open CMD prompt & Navigate to IIS express - by typing the following
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express\"
run this appcmd.exe list site /xml | appcmd delete site /in
This will delete all the sites, enjoy!
I want to create urlrewrite url using appcmd for redirecting all requests from
http://
to
https://
I tried to google but nothing found. Could you provide me some basic example?
Got it working with this:
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /+"[name='http_redirect',enabled='True']" /commit:apphost
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules.[name='http_redirect'] /match.url:"(.*)" /match.ignoreCase:true /commit:apphost
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules.[name='http_redirect'].conditions/add /+"[input='{HTTPS}',pattern='off']" /commit:apphost
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules.[name='http_redirect'].action /+"[type='Redirect',url='https://{HOST_NAME}/{R:1}',redirectType='Found']" /commit:apphost
This link can help on building appcmd scripts.
For the benefit of anyone else looking (as I was) you can do the following to insert your new rule at the start, end or a particular position in the list, as just adding it to the end by default may result in the rule not being hit:
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /+"[#start,name='http_redirect',enabled='True']" /commit:apphost
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /+"[#end,name='http_redirect',enabled='True']" /commit:apphost
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /+"[#2,name='http_redirect',enabled='True']" /commit:apphost
Source:
appcmd.exe set config /?
In my case the syntax is slightly different since I wanted to alter a URL Rewrite rule at the root (server) level.
appcmd set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/globalRules -[name='myRule'].action.url:http://myRewrite /commit:apphost
It took me a long time to figure out the globalRules instead of rules difference.
I was trying to create a scripted installer for P4V.
The port settings, user setting and the workspace name are set as specified in the config file.
But when I open perforce the connection dialog box throws an error "client 'manojpc' unknown".
The following was my configuration file:
set P4PORT=server:2345
set INSTMODE=NoPrompt
set INSTTYPE=ClientOnly
set P4ROOT=$(SystemDrive)\My Depot
set CLNTEXES=$(SystemDrive)\Perforce
set P4USER=username
set p4CLIENT=$(HOSTNAME)
If I specify an already existing workspace, perforce won't allow me to use it in a PC other than the one from which it was created.
So how do I make this work?
Please let me also know if the above settings will set the "C:\My Depot" as the workspace dir.
In your Workspace settings, make the Host: field blank. This will allow you to use the same workspace from any computer.
Do you possibly need to use the p4 client command to set up a workspace before-hand?
