Setting recycle properties on IIS7 App Pools using powershell 2.0

Question

I am trying to set the current properties using powershell

1. disallowRotationOnConfigChange
2. disallowOverlappingRotation

I do this with the following code

$appPools = Get-childItem IIS:\AppPools
foreach ($appPool in $appPools)
{
    $appPool.name
    Set-ItemProperty $path -Name recycling.disallowRotationOnConfigChange -value True
    Set-ItemProperty $path -Name recycling.disallowOverlappingRotation -value True
}

after this executes I go check in inetmgr and the properties have not budged from False... what am I doing wrong here ?

Answer 1

Stupid me this script misses an entire line :)

for those who haven't spotted it the script should read

$appPools = Get-childItem IIS:\AppPools
foreach ($appPool in $appPools)
{
    $path = "IIS:\AppPools\$($appPool.Name)"
    $appPool.name
    Set-ItemProperty $path -Name recycling.disallowRotationOnConfigChange -value True
    Set-ItemProperty $path -Name recycling.disallowOverlappingRotation -value True
}

no good not defining $path :)

This fixes the above script
