nzbart / CreateFolderWithPermissions.ps1

Created June 14, 2013 22:43

Resets all permissions on a folder to a specified set. I use this on IIS web roots in deployment scripts. The function: * Creates the folder if it does not exist * Sets permissions on the folder and configures those permissions to propagate to child folders and files * Resets all child objects so that they match the parent folder

	function CreateFolderWithPermissions($folder, $aclRules)
	{
	if(-not (test-path $folder)) {
	Write-Host "Creating $folder..."
	md $folder \| out-null
	}

	Write-Host "Setting permissions on $folder..."
	$domain = [environment]::userdomainname
	$acl = new-object System.Security.AccessControl.DirectorySecurity

Allow multiple web applications under IIS to use the same SQL server session state database without modifying the database stored procedures.

	/*
	* This code is a workaround for the fact that session state in ASP.NET SqlServer mode is isolated by application. The AppDomain's appId is used to
	* segregate applications, and there is no official way exposed to modify this behaviour.
	*
	* Some workarounds tackle the problem by modifying the ASP.NET state database. This workaround approaches the problem from the application code
	* and will be appropriate for those who do not want to alter the database. We are using it during a migration process from old to new technology stacks,
	* where we want the transition between the two sites to be seamless.
	*
	* As always, when relying on implementation details, the reflection based approach used here may break in future / past versions of the .NET framework.
	* Test thoroughly.
