Hi,
If I create a Virtual directory with application name
programmatically it will not show up in the available web
services while adding web reference(Dynamic discovery
fails).

Where as if I create the virtual directory manually it
will shown up while adding web reference.

I have used the following code to create it
programmatically on IIS 5.0

I have checked the property pages of virtual directory
created using both the methods they look same.

Set IIsWebVDirRootObj = GetObject
("IIS://LocalHost/W3SVC/1/Root")
Set IIsWebVDirObj = IIsWebVDirRootObj.Create
("IIsWebVirtualDir", "MySecureAPP")

IIsWebVDirObj.Put "Path", "C:\MySecure"
IIsWebVDirObj.Put "AccessRead", True
IIsWebVDirObj.Put "AccessScript", True
IIsWebVDirObj.Put "AppIsolated",2

IIsWebVDirObj.AppCreate2 1
IIsWebVDirObj.Put "AppFriendlyName", "MySecureAPP"
IIsWebVDirObj.SetInfo



Thanks
Kiran

This is VbScript that uses ADSI objects.
I have tried with C# too, but the same problem exiits

C# Code
DirectoryEntry IISRoot = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://" +
m_strServer + "/W3SVC/1/Root");
DirectoryEntry newDir =
IISRoot.Children.Add( m_strVDirName, "IIsWebVirtualDir");
newDir.Properties["Path"]
[0] = m_strVDirPath;
newDir.Properties
["AccessFlags"][0] = "513";
newDir.Properties
["AppIsolated"][0] = "2";
//newDir.Properties
["AccessWrite"][0] = "True";
newDir.Properties
["AppFriendlyName"][0] = m_strVDirName;
newDir.Invoke
( "AppCreate", true );
newDir.CommitChanges();

Thanks
Kiran

Did you have any asmx files in the Virtual folder? Additionally, What did
you mean "Dynamic discovery", "Browse to
Web services on the local machine " in VS.NET 2003?
