Configuration :: Switching From Development Server To IIS -- No Default Document
Dec 5, 2010
I created the simplest MVC project with Visual Studio 10, and it works fine on the VS Development Server, but won't run using IIS on the same computer under IIS (Windows Server 2008 R2 with ASP.NET 4.0.30319).
My steps were:
File / New / Project ...Visual C# / Web / ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application... and kept the default name: MvcApplication1
Clicked Debug to build and run ... the default page appears fine at http://localhost:49175 ...
Then I closed that browser and clicked on MvcApplication1 / Properties / Web and selected "Use Local IIS Web server"Clicked "Create" to create the virtual directory at http://localhost/MvcApplication1
Clicked Debug again... and got HTTP Error 403.14 (Web Server configured to not list directory)
It seems that IIS cannot find a Default document. If I add a document to the virtual directory (C:inetpubwwwrootMvcApplication1) with one of the default doc names, that document will display OK.
Why can ASP.NET find the default document (Views/Home/Index.aspx) when running from the VS Development Server, but not when running from IIS??
I have tried running "aspnet_regiis -i", but still find that C:inetpubwwwrootaspnet_clientsystem_web4_0_30319 is an empty folder. Should there be something here?I have tried giving all sorts of permissions to the virtual directory folder (C:inetpubwwwrootMvcApplication1) but without any success.

I am wondering the best way to change my connection string based upon which server I am accessing.
Essentially, all of the development is done on our local machines - once we think it is working, we upload it to our development server. In these 2 instances, I want my application to go off of our "dev" connection string for the SQL database in the web.config.
However, once it is published to our production server (for an internal application), I would like the connection string to point to our live db.
I am using the N-Tier model by Imar Spaanjaars - and have it setup like he suggests - In my DAL I have a class called AppConfiguration -
In this class I have a public readonly property ConnectionString() which returns the connection string in the web.config.
This is in an individual class library. What I would like to do is something similar to:
If server is localhost OR devstring return devString else return productionstring

I have one asp application. When i deploy this application in iis like www.xxxx.com , my index page is in the sub folder like root/home/index.asp , so when i set this as default document , browser will redirect to this url. But without redirection is this possible to load the default document in www.xxxx.com
I need my default document while browsing www.xxxx.com without redirecting to www.xxxx.com/home/index.asp

I want to know if there is a way to set up the default document or default web page from the setup project of a web page.What I mean is that I would like my web app installer to set the default page (i.e: DefaultPage.aspx) when installing the web application. I remember I could do this in previous versions of the asp.net platform, currently I am working in ASP.NET 3.5 (Visual Studio 2008).

I installed windows 7 recently & I am new to ASP.NET. I installed visual studio 2008 for developing ASP.NET application. I created my web application on visual web developer 2008 & when I run my aplication, ASP.NET development server runs & my defualt browser opens automatically but it cannot show my web page. Connection error ocurrs. But when I open this web page with visual studio's internal browser, it works fine for me. So tell me whats the problem with my default browser(IE8, Flock2.6), Any configuration setting or what, I don't know exactly.

if there is a way to determine if the default document has been served using .net? I thought perhaps something would be available in the server variables, but I can't seem to find anything that distinguishes between [URL] and [URL]

I am trying to secure very mixed content that is located in an ASP.NET directory. For purposes of this question, it can be ~/MyApp/.
I want all of the content in the directory and its subdirectories restricted to authenticated users. The default.aspx page, though, should be accessible to everyone. This is the web.config in that directory:
[Code]....
Now if you are an unauthenticated user, everything works fine if you request [code]....
The problem occurs in that visitors do not always request "Default.aspx". We have a default document configured so that they get Default.aspx even if they just request "/MyApp". An authenticated user works fine, but an unauthenticated user is directed to the login page.
Now I know that essentially this happens because even though the request for "/MyApp/" will actually end up serving up "/MyApp/Default.aspx", the security system is only checking for "/MyApp/" since that is what I requested. That is then getting the default security for the directory.
How can you configure an exception to allow access when no particular file is requested in the directory??
Is there some dependency between DefaultDocumentModule and UrlAuthorizationModule? In this environment, the UrlAuthorizationModule has been removed and re-added in order to make sure it fires for non-managed requests. I would not expect that to change the order of execution, though, since UrlAuthorizationModule usually goes after DefaultDocument.
A workaround could be to set up the opposite security with the directory being open, and then trying to secure individual files. Because of the (changing) number of files, and extensions, etc, and the fact that you cannot use wildcards in a <location>, this is not really a workable solution for me.

I am a problem in my one of my web applications. I run this application under ASP.NET Development Server. Normally, in all of my other projects, when I made a change, I recompiled the project, and then press CTRL+F5 in the browser, then the new changes will be displayed in the browser. However, this specific project, when I made a change, recompiled, and then press CTRL+F5 in the browser, the page stayed the same as it was, withouth displaying the changes. I have to restart the ASP.NET Development Server to see the new changes.
This problem is not only happending in my PC, but also in others who doesn't have Visual Studio installed. So I guess there is nothing to do with my PC's environment. Are there anything wrong with my web.config?

Problem: I need to move a local development database to the production server without any of the test data.
I am running SQL Server Express 2008 and SQL Server Management Studio 2008.
To create my ASP.NET Membership 2.0 system I created the DB initialy and ran aspnet_regsql.exe
I then added my own tables manually to store additional information.
I adjusted the web.config file with an application name.
When I ran a sript the application ID name was created and populated in the aspnet_Applications table. My script created a new member created and added to the admin role. Ok so everything go so far.
Now I want to move the local DB to the server. I know the connection string and can change this in the web.config.
My hosting company doesn't provide restore, so I don't think I can backup and restore
Q 1. What would be the best way to move the database across. Bearing in mind I need to clean the database out of test data.
Would it be just generate an SQL Script for the database and run it as a query on the server? And if this is the best way then do I need to set the permissions for the ASPNET user?
Q 2. What is the best way to clear out the data in the local database.?

I wrote a web service to send emails and some win apps supossed to call the service for sending emails. When I test the service via Visual studio development server everything is ok and it sends emails. But with IIS the smtpclient.send throw an exception whit this message : No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it [mailserver ip:port] The endpoint for VS development server is [URL] and for iis [URL] The smtp server is remote (gmail) and iis version is 6. I set the current local user as iis anonymous user. I am in LAN and my client firewall is off. There is an ISA server for the internet but I'm using a dialup connection for the internet. So why visual studio can send emails but iis can't?

I have an ASP.NET site running on the Visual Studio Development Server. I also have a silverlight project in my solution. I get the error:
Error: Unhandled Error in Silverlight Application
Code: 2104
Category: InitializeError
Message: Could not download the Silverlight application. Check web server settings
After some research, it seems I need to do the equivalent of setting the MIME type in HTTP Headers in IIS for VSDS. Is this right?
If so, how do I do this? If not how do I get my silverlight to run in my ASP.NET solution using Visual Studio Development Server?

I wrote an web form application in C# to open Office Word 2007 documents from the application. This worked perfectly testing in my development environment. But after deploying my application to web server, the documents do not open and I get the following error retrieving the com class factory for component with clsid failed due to the following error: 80040154
It looks like it may be because Office Word 2007 is not installed on the web server box. Would installing it on the web server be the solution, or is this a bad idea. If it is not the solution, then would is an alternative way to do this.

Using VisualWebDeveloper 2010 on the development machine. All nice and fast.Using VisualWebDeveloper 2008 on the server. Server runs on Windows Server 2008 and has IIS 7.
It looks like that when 'table', a datatabe filled up in C# code behind, is getting longer, then the server (whether running the website on IIS or on the local host of VIsualWebDeveloper2008) is really slowing down. Checked it in debug mode and traced it down to
Adapter.Update(table);
Are there any know issues? Could it be that there is incompatibility between different version of SQL server or something like that? The update works, it is just awefully slow, but only on the server.

I am running into a unique problem (not easily googleable). This is what I am trying to do:Will be using subdomains: x.abc.com, y.abc.com, z.abc.com, etc.There will be single website hosted at abc.comBased on the subdomain passed (x,y,z,etc.), I need to switch databases and web.configs (appsettings, authentication, authorization info)For ex: If a user goes to x.abc.com, the site will select appropriate db & config settings and forward user to abc.com with db & settings cached/saved for the user session.Is it possible to have one hosted site and multiple subdomains that select appropriate config settings? Reason I need to do this is because credit card processor needs static url for requests and responses.

How can I test an application that I am publishing to a remote provider's IIS7 hosted site, with the VS2008 development server that is built in with VS2008 on an XP Machine?
My membership/roles work perfectly up on the remote host. On ths hosted IIS7 site when I try to access a secure directory it redirects to login, and I am able to login, however when I launch (debug - F5) from VS2008, it will provide that folder/resource, no questions asked. Same build, config, etc... nothing has changed.
I am running XP, and local IIS version installed is 5.1.
My guess is what is happening is that the new format required in the web.config is configured properly for IIS7 deployment, which is why it works remotely, but when running locally through VS2008/XP it is running with an older version on IIS and does not recoginize the new tags.

I used to use VS 2010 and Windows 7 32 bit editions. Now I have upgraded to 64 bit editions.My problem is that every time I run my webform website, development server is set up and when I stop debugging it is closed.On 32 bit versions it was launched just once. Now every time I hit F5.Problem is that many times IE just displays Internet Explorer cannot display the webpageif I press F5 (refresh) once or twice website is displayed.What can I do with it? Other browsers wait until that development server is launched, just IE doesn`t

I've got an Asp.net site set up on GoDaddy which is using UrlRewriter.net (not to be confused with UrlRewriting.net) to enable url rewriting which seems to be working ok, though I had to set IIS to run in IIS6 mode, rather than IIS7. The problem I have is that my default document is 'virtual' so while it's possible to browse to mydomain.com/default.aspx just going to mydomain.com/ doesn't work - I presume this is because IIS is expecting default.aspx to actually exist within the root directory of the website. Is there any way around this problem?EditAs requested, here is the rewrite rule from my web.config file.
<rewriter>
<rewrite url="^(/.+(.gif|.png|.jpg|.ico|.pdf|.css|.js)(?.+)?)$" to="$1" processing="stop" />
<unless url="~/Login.aspx|~/Page-Not-Found.aspx|~/ShowPage.aspx">
<rewrite url="^~/(.+).aspx" to="/ShowPage.aspx?PageName=$1" />
</unless>

IIS6, ASP.NET 2.0, No Forms Authentication I'm calling Response.Redirect("~/foo.aspx"), but the default document ("Default.aspx") for my site is appearing. To make matters worse, it only happens intermittently. Sometimes the redirect displays the right page.
I've checked session state, and I don't see any values in the web.config (that is, I'm assuming I'm using the 20-minute defaults).
There's foo.aspx and foo2.aspx (and the default document, Default.aspx). All pages extend from BasePage, which extends Page.
BasePage has a property named ReturnPage:
protected string ReturnPage {
get {
if (Session["ReturnPage"] == null) {
Session["ReturnPage"] = "";
}
return Session["ReturnPage"].ToString();
}
set { Session["ReturnPage"] = value; }
}
Users click on a LinkButton on foo.aspx, and the click event handler ends with two lines of code:
ReturnPage = ResolveUrl("~/foo.aspx");
Response.Redirect(ResolveUrl("~/foo2.aspx"));
The Page_Load of foo2.aspx has problems, and its error handling calls Response.Redirect(ReturnPage).
When I view the response headers of foo2.aspx, the 302 location is string.Empty (that is, there isn't one). That same response header has the same ASP.NET Session ID as the response of foo.aspx.
And remember -- this is intermittent. Sometimes, you can click on that LinkButton and go effortlessly to foo2.aspx, no problem. You can process the click with the exact same data once, and it will fail. You'll navigate from the default document (Default.aspx, where you were sent by the "bug") back to foo.aspx, click again with the same data (the same row in the grid/table -- the same LinkButton, essentially), and you'll be redirected to foo2.aspx without issue.
