Launch Cassini from the command line

A simple batch file will do this:
taskkill /F /IM WebDev.WebServer.exe START /D "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\DevServer\9.0\" /B WebDev.WebServer.EXE /port:5002 /path:"$PROJECT PATH" /vpath:"/PROJECT"

Replace $PROJECT with the local path of your web solution.

The VPATH value refers to the virtual folder that is used. This can be replaced with just / if your application runs from the web root.

Once saved into a batch file, this could be dropped into your start up folder to launch on every reboot.

Respect goes to XNeuron for the lead on this one.

SET $serverPath = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\DevServer\10.0\"

SET $projectPath = "C:\ProjectPath"

SET $port = 5002

SET $vPath = "/"

START /D $serverPath /B WebDev.WebServer40.EXE /port:$port /path:$projectPath /vpath:$vPath
