  • IIS Backup v1.5.0.0 is a minor update
    This version fixes an issue relating to the path to IIS log files. As you may know, that path is generated by IIS. In IIS Manager, you are able to control the parent path, but not the precise path. The precise path is based on the Web Site ID, which is outside your control unless you want to run a cscript to modify it.
    Previously, IIS Backup would use new Web Site ID numbers when restoring, in order to avoid overwriting any pre-existing sites on the target machine.
    Now with v1.5, in restore mode, it will attempt to use the same Web Site ID number so that if you restore onto a clean machine, you will end up with the same numbers as before and therefore your IIS log paths will remain unchanged.

    Version 1.5 also fixes a problem with non-English web sites. Previously it was not possible to restore, for example, web sites on a Chinese version of Windows XP. Now that (and all other languages) work fine.
