Configuration :: Error With IIS 7 And Forms Authentication When Try To View App / Site
Sep 28, 2010
I have "published" my web application to our server which is running Windows Server 2008 and IIS 7. The app has a web.config file in it's root directory but, since I used the ASP.NET Configuration tool to set access permissions to subdirectories in my site, there are also web.config files in those subdirectories. They were created by the ASP.NET Configuration tool, and their contents are simple:
[Code]....
Now, when I try to view my app/site, I recieve the 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. In the Source Error: section, the following line of my ROOT web.config file (not on of the little ones located in the subdirectories) is highlighted in red. "<authentication mode="Forms">"
Everything I have been able to find regarding this error says that one cause might be that web.config files are located in the subdirectories of my application but, the error is pointing to the web.config file in my root directory. IIS7 functions differently from previos versions, regarding web application creation. But, I think I have managed to get that set up correctly. (there is an application listed with the name of my site, and it has been assigned to the app pool that I created so, I think that is all correct). So, I think my web site IS set up as an application.

I am trying to deploy a simple page that just has 3 textboxes and a button that calculates 2 numbers.I copied the site to my server and when I try to go to the site throught IE I get the error below. How do I reslove this runtime error?
Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

i'm doing a website for a school and after uploading the site i get this error when typing in the web address: "Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off". "
the problem i have is the hosting company are saying it's not them and their IIS server is supporting .net 2.0 and it must be my code. i have even tried creating a brand new site and uploading that and I still get the same error. Because it's a school website i have to use the local government's hosting company so can't go anywhere else to host it. my question is is there any way i can create a website in .net 1.1 in vs? that way i can try to upload that site and see if it's displayed; at least if it does I can go back to the hosting company and tell them it's their server.

I have built a web site using WIndows 7 64bit, C#, VS2010, Access 2010 DB. I am ready to continue testing... ASP.NET testing has gone well with no errors but now I am publishing a web.site to the localhost IIS 7 and I am having trouble publishing it. I am getting a permissions error. Do not know what is gong on when I am the only user, no network, just me myself and I.VS2010 tells me that I need to close VS and re-open as the Administrator to publish to the local machine... ? How do I do that when there is only 1 user (me) on this machine.

I recently installed VWDE 2010 and SQLE 2008 R2 and have built a basic site, but when I try to launch the Web Site Administration Tool, it fails to come up in a browser window. The server starts and I can right click on that and choose "Open in Web Browser", but when I do that an error message immediately shows up saying, an error was encountered. Please return to the previous page and try again with no other information given. When I click on "How do I Use this Tool?" in the top-right corner of the window, it immediately says the following:
Tool Has Timed Out
As a security measure, the Web Site Administration Tool times out after a period of inactivity. Changes to machine.config or web.config may also result in the tool needing to be restarted. To continue configuring your web site, restart the tool. The same message immediately comes up no matter what tab I click on. I have searched the internet and have made sure that the path doesn't have any spaces or non-alphabetic characters, run aspnet_regsql, restarted the IDE as well as the computer, but nothing works.

My company has a server running Windows 2003, IIS 6.0, Web Deployment tool 1.1. I also have a development machine running Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. I can't get the Publish command to work (gives me "can't contact MSDEPLOYAGENTSERVICE" even though I know it's running), so a couple days ago I built a publish package, copied it over, and ran it, which worked.oday I thought WebDeploy was having problems (turned out the problem was between the keyboard and the chair) so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it from the WPI. Now when I try to run the package I get
Error: The metabase path 'Default Web Site/MyWebsite_deploy' is not supported.
Paths must be of the format '/lm/w3svc/<siteid>/ROOT/...'.

I am neither a server administrator nor very knowledgable about how to configure IIS, so I have the following problem:
My client hosts their public website from their own internal server running Server 2003 with IIS 6. The current website is a .NET 1.1 application configured as a website in IIS. Within this site a separate virtual directory configured as an application runs a separate .NET 1.1 app that serves as their online webstore.
I've been tasked with upgrading the website (not the webstore) to .NET 4 and getting it installed and working on their server. My initial plan was to simply change the existing websites home directory to the new home directory from the IIS admin console and be done, but then I read that this would break the application directory that hosts their online store because .NET 1.1 applications cannot be nested within .NET 4 applications. Can anyone confirm this?

I'm working on a new project and I would like to use forms authentication to protect the necessary pages. The project is going to be focused on companies where a company would create an account and have multiple users. Each company should have its own data and should not be able to see other companies' data. What would be the best way to go about this? I've considered using a subdomain for each company which would tell the application which membership provider to use. I've also considered using an additional credential such as company ID to specify which company the user is logging into.

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.

We're using ASP.NET and IIS 6.0. I realise that the definitions of applications, websites and virtual directories are ill-defined in IIS 6, and changed a lot in IIS 7. However, I'm stuck with IIS 6.0 for now.
We have a single web site defined in IIS, and a number of separate sub-sites in Virtual Directories.
The scheme looks like this:-
[URL]
[URL]
site1, site2, ... are virtual directories in IIS 6.0, under the "Default Web Site".
I need to use ASP.NET sessions and forms authentication in most of these sites, and I don't want them to share authentication data or session information at all.
Both the mechanisms currently depend on cookies. However, the cookies created by default use the same name, and have a path of "/" in the browser, meaning the sites' cookies will clash with each other.
Without changing the default name for each cookie, how can I enforce separation between my sub-sites? Do I need to change the virtual directories for IIS 6 "Applications"? Or is there some way in code to enforce a more limited scope for the cookies?

For eg,1. http://servername/_folder1/app/mypage.aspx (Accessing .net application (App) website without cname)2. http://NewDomian.xxxx/app/mypage.aspx (Accessing .net application (App) website with cname)The first case is working perfectly, but when I access the second url, I got the following error.Description:

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 have an ASP.NET MVC application running on IIS. In my web.config I defined following section responsible for forms authentication:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms
loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" [code]....
Why do I get a different address from the one defined in web.config?
UPDATE: The "/VNK/site/" prefix is not a problem here. The problem is that LoginUrl property of FormsAuthentication class does not reflect the value from web.config. It means that if I change in web.config loginUrl from "~/Account/LogOn" for example to "~/foobar", FormsAuthentication.LoginUrl still has value of "/VNK/site/Account/Login". Why ?

I am taking an existing ASP.NET site with authentication, membership & roles and updating it. In the process I am pulling the authentication portion off of the site and using an SSO (through Central Authentication Services - CAS). I need to retain the use the membership and roles of .NET. Right now my site allows users to add an account and I approve and add them to groups. Since I will no longer do the account management I still need a way to add them to the proper groups once they have an account.
The question is sort of a chicken/egg question... Since I am the admin I need to add myself first, but since the authentication is no longer local how do I do this? Do I develop a special function just to add my account and then other pages to manage the rest?
