Use the command line to enable IIS Express and iisexpress

When debugging a WEB program, we can mount the local web program to the local IIS, access the program, and attach the process (w3wp) to debug the program (a debugging method that I like very much), there is also a more traditional way to execute through VS's built-in F5, but it feels very bad, if we have to stop the current program and re-compile and re-run F5 to start c # code, it seems a waste of time. Is there any other way to start the program? The answer is to use the command line to start IIS (IIS Express, which is essentially the same as F5 ).

First, enable the command line tool that comes with vs, which is used for vs 2017 professional. On the command line, enter the following command "C: \ Program Files \ IIS Express \ appcmd.exe "list site and click Enter to display the list of websites registered with IIS Express, as shown in:

We created a new site with VS, but the site address is as follows:

In our site list, there is only the address WebSite1 in the site name. At this time, we can add the site information we just created to the configuration file through the command:

"C: \ Program Files \ IIS Express \ appcmd.exe" add site/name: MyNewSite/bindings: "http: // localhost: 58127"/physicalPath: "C: \ Users \ Administrator \ Documents ents \ Visual Studio 2017 \ WebSites \ WebSite4"

Then, run the following command to start our site "C: \ Program Files \ IIS Express \ iisexpress.exe"/siteid: 2

At this time, you will find that there is an extra startup icon in the lower right corner of the desktop.

At this time, enter http: // localhost: 58127 in the browser. The result is as follows, indicating that the startup is successful through the command line.

And all your requests for page operations are recorded as follows:

Then press Q to stop the current site.

 

If you want to view the site effect on your mobile phone, if you still do not have the permission to access the site on a mobile phone in the same LAN, You need to execute the following command line (note that the command line tool must use the Administrator permission when executing the command line tool)

Netsh http add urlacl url = http: // *: 58127/user = everyone;

Open the applicationhost. xml configuration file in the directory % userprofile % \ documents \ iisexpress \ config.

 

Change

Then re-Execute "C: \ Program Files \ IIS Express \ iisexpress.exe"/siteid: 2, and the phone can be accessed. Perfect.
