IIS Manager
An IIS Application is a directory that has been setup in a manner that makes it logically independent from the rest of the web-site. With this tool you can view, create and delete applications within your website. Please note, the maximum allowed count of applications within a single website for your plan (The Pro Plan (Windows)) is: 7.
IIS Application Manager is used to make a folder independent of the rest of the site, if you are using certain scripts or certain programs that require to be installed into an application folder.
You would need to upload or create a folder within the root directory then set that folder as an application in the IIS app manager. Once the folder is created you will see it in the drop down menu within the IIS Application Manager.
Application Manager
- Select an application path (note: needs to be an existing folder on the server). Select an application from the drop-down menu.
2. Click "Create Application". The chosen application will be added to the list of your already existing application. The list of all existing applications is visible on the bottom of the same page. The “Create Application” button sets permissions for the folder so that the folder can run independently of the rest of the site, so that any asp program you have in the folder can run properly, if it is coded to run as an IIS app.
Manage applications
The list will display all existing applications with their status.
You may delete an application by selecting it and then clicking on "Apply".
Click "Cancel" to dismiss all changes.
