We recently upgraded from 7 to 8 and since moving to 8 the script is no longer deleting virtual directories.
The action states that it completed successfully but the virtual directory does not actually get deleted.
Details:
Environment:
FinalBuilder 8.0.0.2292 Professional Edition
Windows 7 SP 1
Script:
The action being used is:
Delete Virtual Directory (IIS 7+)
Server tab:
I have tried using ‘global IIS options’ and ‘Provide’ for the ‘IIS Server’ and ‘Credentials’ options all with same result.
Website Options tab:
Default Web Site
Virtual Directory Options tab:
/MyApp
When the action is executed the result is:
Delete Virtual Directory (IIS 7+) [/MyApp]
Status:
Date: 12/11/2017
Time: 16:35:58:742
End: 16:35:58:827
Duration: 00:00:00:085
Action Messages:
Establishing connection to IIS server…
Connected to IIS server on ‘localhost’.
Deleted virtual directory.

I can reproduce this, looking into it. So far it looks like the api reports success but doesn’t actually seem to do anything.

I have found several issues with the IIS actions which need further investigation, it looks like a bunch of changes were not merged from FB7 to 8 so the code has diverged somewhat. We should have an update with the fix early next week.
