Configuration :: Site Works At Root Of Domain But Not In A Subfolder?
Mar 26, 2011
So my website works great on my local computer. It also works fine when I use the Copy Web Site feature in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. But I do not want all of my files and the default.aspx to be sitting at the root of my domain name. I want it to be in a subfolder.
So again, it works fine when it's sitting at www.domainname.com
But when I use my FTP program to move the files to:
www.domainname.com/subfolder/
I get an error when I try to visit the site. It's just a general runtime error and does not display the specific error message. It obviously must have something to do with when I MOVE the files/folders from the root of the domain to the subfolder?
I've been working on site for a client who has just informed me (having completed the work) they want to deploy the site into a subfolder of their exiting domain. The site uses a number of class files in the App_code folder and as well as references to several XML files and and siteMap that uses localised urls for navigation. Obviously all of this stops working as soon as you put it in a sub folder. Is there any way I can configure the site to treat the sub folder it will be placed in as the root?
I have a web site running on IIS7 on a remote server. I would like to do the following: Create a new subfolder under the root virtual directory. Create a new app pool. Add this new app pool to the new subfolder Normally, I would do this manually in IIS by first creating the app pool, and then right-clicking the sub folder an choose "add application", but I need to do this programmatically in C#. I've managed to make the above points 1 and 2 work, but I can't find the way to adding the application to the sub folder. This is the code I have used so far for 1 and 2:
[Code]....
So, I need to add "MyAppPool" to the "NytSite" folder. Is this even the correct way to do this?
I created a default website from Visual Studio 2010 but it works only when I deploy it on to the root directory. It fails when I publish it onto a sub directory.
An example will be
[URL]- works
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: Could not load type 'MyWebPage.SiteMaster'.
I have a Domain like [URL] that is pointed to a virtual directory on my webspace like [URL]. The folder structure on my webspace is (off course) like this
root bin VirtualDirectoryName bin Content Scripts Views Web.config Global.asax
If i call now [URL] i get the Site without CSS and the links are [URL]. I used the default and almost empty default "Internet Application". So the routing is default and all links are created with @Html.ActionLink. i tried so many things but i cant get it working. In my local environment i can affect that with IIS settings but (off course) i do not have access on the IIS settings of my host.
When a user opens the my web app then immediately opens clicks on a button to open another, related page (page opens in a separate window (users choice) via a button), the new page opens fine. If a user open the my web app and waits a bit (usually abouta minute) before clickin on the button to open another page, they get the 'Page Not Found' error. When I run this app locally (local host), I have no problems.the server can handle, why does this happen only after the user waits to open the other page.
I am using iis 5.1 in which we have only only one default website, I have two projects v2 and v3 my website points to v2 projects and have some folders images, styles etc now i have a virtual directory under this website that is hosting project v3 and having the same folder hierarchy as v2 in the home page of the both projects i have img src="imagesedlogo.gif" alt="logo"/> but this shows the same image that is in the v2 directory, How can i show different images for both projects. using "" get the root of the web site but how can i get the root of virtual directory under that website
I have created a website that has one aspx page. I am using visual studio 3.5. I have created a virtual directory on my local pc and tested the app and it wis working. Now I need to delploy it to the domain via ftp> Here is the website folders:
1. App_Code - contain my classes 2. App_Data - contain the sql express database ... myDb.mdf 3. Myaspx page - a single page 4. Web.config
when I run it , it woks, but when I want to deploy it , the site does not work. Here what I am doing .I am publishing the site to a local folder, then upload the complete folder to the right domain name. Yet, get an error
"Error 1 The process cannot access the file 'B:�0 2011 demoMarchObjectDataSource_CRUD_CSApp_DataRGN.mdf' because it is being used by another process"
How can I fix this error. I thought when I publish the site, the database would also be included in the site folders, but I may be wrong.
After publishing the web application on the web host there si following error.It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
I am able to save documents to a network drive from my c# asp.net application when it is run from my developmet machine, but not when the application is deployed to a website. Below I list the code that makes the call to map the drive the class is a standard class for this purpose. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong?CODE:
The code that instantiates the mapping class NetworkDrive drive = new NetworkDrive(); drive.ShareName = @"\38.186.8.244Docs";
I have a hosted site and just added some additional error notification to my global.asax file and works like a charm. I decided to add the same logic to our test server and it doesnt work. The server.transfer never happens and the email never gets updated. Now i know the email works on the test and production server since we have other pages that use the same SMTP server name and setup as i have in the global file. Below is my code as it is in the file now. I setup a test page to cause an error and the page displays the detailed error which we dont want. But i would like to be notified if this happens. What am i missing? I can only assume that its a IIS confige issue, since the exact same code works on a hosted site, but not at work on our test or production servers. Here is the code i have in the global.asax
i new to asp.net i have made a master page with some other pages in root folder then i have made a sub folder with page called staff which is restriced by a login when i run the site and click on the staff hyperlink it ask my to log in so do and it will bring me to the staff page. but it would bring the backaround image called backaround also when i click on and other link it give me an error:
Using VS 2010, RC, VB, how do I change the subfolder attributes. When I publish and choose to delete all the files and folders, I have to recreate the security levels for them manually. I assume that I can have Web Config do that for me.
Let's say that I have my ASP.NET web application in a directory called "MyApp" both locally and on a remote server. I'm trying to build an onclick response to a link. The response calls a Javascript function, passing it the URL of an .aspx page in my web app. The Javascript pops out a new window displaying the page. My C# code looks like this:
link = new HyperLink(); link.Text = product_num_str; link.NavigateUrl = "#";[code]....
I started using the Request's Authority property because I was having problems running locally on the Visual Studio web server when I used the Host property. The problem was that Host only returned "localhost" instead of the host and port number. When tested locally, the code works because the "authority" maps to my app root folder. The URL generated is, e.g.,
http://localhost:52071/ProductInfo.aspx?_num=123
If I run on a remote server, however, I end up with something like: http://company-server/ProductInfo.aspx?_num=123
This fails to find the page, because in this case the "MyApp" root folder must be included.There is probably an easier way - putting an entry in the web.config or something. My motivation originally was to allow the app to be published to a folder of any name and work as is. I could hack my approach and search the string for "localhost" or something, but that's ugly. So how do I build a string that will work everywhere?
I currently have a dedicated server running a number of sites, one of these sites I would like to add a subfolder to which runs a seperate index.html file, so effectively it looks like a different site.
I am struggling to acheive this, can anybody give me the steps involved to make this happen?
To clarify, i have a web address for example www.mydomain.com and would like users to browse to www.mydomain.com/subfolder and open up a sub folder.
Is not a lot of fun of yielding much success at the moment.
When I copy my web site on the local machine some of the CSS classes in my themes are not applied. Although not major, I am concerned at what may be causing this.
My real problem is regard the root of the site. On my personal machin, I have set the root of my site using the tilde syntax. However, the root of the web site on my host's ftp site is wwwroot.
Does this mean that I need to change a setting somewhere for the page to be recognised?
I'm having an issue that has made me loose too many hours already. My site works fine in VS2008 with SQL Express 2008. However, when I try to deploy the site following these steps:
1. Create a new site IIS 7.0 2. Copy all the files from my code folder to IIS 7.0, (I was planning to delete the code latter) 3. Browse to my Index.aspx
The error message I receive is Cannot open database "AnimalSafe" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNetwork Service'. I've already changed the application pool to use Network Service to authenticate and have made sure that SQL is running under this account.
I want to completely understand how to use relative and absolute url address in static and dynamic files.~ : / :.. : in a relative URL indicates the parent directory . : efers to the current directory / : always replaces the entire pathname of the base RL// : always replaces everything from the hostname onwardsThis example is easy when you are working without virtual directory. But i am working on virtual directory
I am a PHP developer and have been asked to make some slight amendments to an ASP.net site. I can make these amendments but the biggest challenge seems to be getting the actual site up and running on my own server! I have a had lots of errors with regards to the paths to files, as the website is linked absolutely to the root folder and on my development server I cannot have the files at the root. I have therefore worked my way through some of the files making the paths relative so I can at least see some of the site running but then I came across this error:
CS0103: The name 'Data' does not exist in the current context Line 5: protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs args) Line 6: { Line 7: rptNews.DataSource = Data.NewsArticle.GetLatestNews(3); Line 8: rptNews.DataBind(); Line 9: }
I assume this is something to do with data being called from a database. How to get the site and database up and running as I have no idea where to start and feel I am going round in circles.
I've got webform routing setup on my asp.net webforms 3.5sp1 project. I would like to have the files for the site in a directory called content including the home page as I would like to run multiple sites using the same system. In MVC there is a blank default page and the home page is in a folder called home. I can't seem to replicate this behaviour using web form routing but would like to. The blank page is always hit first. the route handler is hit second - it recognises that the request is for the home page and sets up the routing page but is not used. the route handler code is simple:
public string VirtualPath { get; private set; } public IHttpHandler GetHttpHandler(RequestContext requestContext) { string file = requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("File"); string id = requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("Id"); string queryString = "?menuid=" + id; VirtualPath = "~/" + file; HttpContext.Current.RewritePath( string.Concat( VirtualPath, queryString)); var page = BuildManager.CreateInstanceFromVirtualPath (VirtualPath, typeof(Page)) as IHttpHandler; return page; } Is there anyway I can do this? Update Here is my global.asax route code: public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { Domain.RepositoryFactory repo = new RepositoryFactory(); foreach (var x in repo.MenuRepository.GetAllEnabledGetMenus()) { if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(x.Url)) { //add default System.Web.Routing.RouteTable.Routes.Add( new Route("Default.aspx", new RouteValueDictionary(new { File = x.FileName, Id = x.Id.ToString() }), new CoreRouteHandler())); } else { string url = x.Url; if(x.Url.StartsWith("/")) { url = url.Remove(0, 1); } System.Web.Routing.RouteTable.Routes.Add( new System.Web.Routing.Route(url, new RouteValueDictionary(new {File = x.FileName, Id = x.Id.ToString()}), new CoreRouteHandler())); } } }
Suddenly, IIS 7.0 is redirecting every request for the root of any domain hosted on the box to ~/Account/Logon, which is our Forms Authentication redirect. Additionally, some JavaScript and image requests are being similarly redirected, but not other aspx pages.
EDIT: It turns out that something has gone wrong with the disk permissions. Can anyone point me to the way things are supposed to be in Windows Server 2008 for a standard ASP.Net installation? The disk permissions are out of whack now.
