TFS 2008 & Scripting the WSS 3.0 Configuration

  • Article

For any body who wants to script the Products & Technologies Wizard & the extending of default web site in IIS with WSS 3.0 the below script would be the answer.

Thanks Siva for the being the inspiration behind this. :)

Copy the below script in a text file & save it with a .bat extension. Run the .bat in a command prompt window to complete the operation. The PCW log would be created at the path c:\PCWPrimary.txt.
