Unable to Configure AppPool as No Managed Code

[idflyfish]

Cookbook version

6.7.2

Chef-client version

12.20.3

Platform Details

Windows Server 2016

Scenario:

Trying to configure the ".NET CLR version" setting on an AppPool to "No Managed Code" for an existing ASP.NET Core application. This is the recommended setting for ASP.NET Core applications since they do not run in a w3wp.exe process.

Steps to Reproduce:

Set the no_managed_code property on a new pool resource to true within a cookbook recipe for an app pool which already exists.

Expected Result:

.NET CLR version set to "No Managed Code"

Actual Result:

.NET CLR Version set to ".NET CLR Version v4.0.30319"

seems unusual since the documentation is:
no_managed_code - allow Unmanaged Code in setting up IIS app pools is shutting down. - default is true - optional

which should mean that all the tests are using true

I am planning on looking further into it this weekend. I have a fix for the issue in mind.

Woops... accidently closed.

k, if i have time i'll write a specific test for just no_managed_code but i think i'd need more

[idflyfish]

I edited the ticket. The issue only occurs on existing app pools. I apologize for not mentioning this to begin with.

Thanks for the clarification, currently hitting some deprecation issues then going to look into this

@idflyfish would this be what you are doing?

iis_pool 'test_no_managed_code' do
  no_managed_code false
  pipeline_mode :Integrated
  action [:add, :config, :start]
end

then later

iis_pool 'test_no_managed_code' do
  no_managed_code true
  pipeline_mode :Classic
  action [:add, :config, :start]
end

[idflyfish]

Essentially yes. It works fine when the app pool doesn't already exist. However, once the app pool exists it will not set to no_managed_code. I can verify this both through the UI and via Powershell.
