Installscript: Get IIS WebSites with WMI

[PlinyElder]

I am trying to a list of websites from the local machine that IIS has available. I am trying to use the CoGetObject to access WMI but i cannot get it to work any ways that i have been able to find online. Ultimately i am trying to get the Virtual Directory path for any current website that may exist on the users machine before install or upgrade.

What i have tried so far is not working for me. Anyone have something working with IIS 7.5 on Win7 x64?

set oIISRoot = CoGetObject("IIS://localhost/W3SVC","");

set oIISRoot = CoGetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\CIMV2", "");

set oIISRoot = CoGetObject("IIS://localhost/W3SVC/1/ROOT");
I have had limited success on some machines with this

I've tried these same pieces of code for GetObject as well with no success

Anyone have any suggestions?

From a command prompt or bat file do this:

set "appcmd=%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe"
%appcmd% list site

I ended up taking this route. appcmd.exe can handle what i need it too. Thanks
