Why Necessary To Create Virtual Directory In IIS When Website Content Is Placed In IIS Root Directory

Feb 13, 2010

As virutal directory points to physical path of the application, so if the IIS root directory is C:inetpubwwwroot and the application is stored at D:websites, than we need to create a virtual directory but if the application content is placed at C:inetpubwwwroot, then why still need to create virtual directory.

How To Create A Virtual Directory Under A Website

Feb 8, 2011

I was running it directly from Visual studio which resulted in this error :) I can clearly see the images when I run it directly from IIS!

I've created a website under IIS and have successfuly pointed it to my project. The path to my project under IIS is:

[URL]

I, then created a virtual directory under website cartoon named cartoon_images but it creates it under localhost:36011/cartoon_images/ instead of localhost:36011/cartoon/cartoon_images/

As you can see, virtual directory is under the website "cartoon" but I can't access it as cartoon/cartoon_images/

I'll need to give links to this virtual folder but I can't do it in this case if I'm not mistaken.

Authentication For IIS Content In Virtual Directory Under MVC Website

Jul 27, 2010

I have an ASP.NET MVC application for which I store uploaded content files in a virtual directory. This virtual directory is directly underneath my MVC website in IIS. My problem is that the virtual directory allows anonymous access. Anyone, logged in or not, can type in a public URL to my virtual directory and read the files in it. Is it possible to configure IIS (or something else) in a way that forces any requests to this virtual directory to run an authentication/authorization routine before allowing access?

Is this something I can configure in my website's web.config, or does the request never hit any server side code in this case? If it never hits server side code (and feeds the request directly to IIS), how can I change my implementation to require my site to authenticate/authorize and then serve my file.

How To Rewrite To A Virtual Directory With A Different Application

May 4, 2010

I have a CMS application that manages multiple websites, today whenever i change the codebehind of one of these websites - i have to rebuild the dll for all websites, deploy it - this disconnects all current sessions and is really bad.

The iis is configured to listen to all domain requests, if the request is to one of the websites' domain , the application rewrites it, or example, if someone requests for http://www.example.com, and example.com is configured in the application to be website 12, it is rewritten to http://www.example.com/websites/12/default.aspx.

This is done for all websites.

We want to seperate the dlls of the websites from each other, and from the main CMS, we have a virtual directory to each websites, but when trying to rewrite to it, we discover that IIS support this (we get an "Could not load type '_12._Default'". error).

How can we perform this rewrite so it does rewrite to virtual directories, or if anyone has any other solution for the initial dll seperation problem.

How To Access A WCF Service In A Virtual Directory In MVC Application

Feb 1, 2011

I am trying to deploy an asp.net MVC and a WCF service in a single website. The root site is the MVC application and i am going to run the WCF as a virtual directory of the site. However the service cant be accessed since the routing of the MVC would not relay the request to the service. It would say "Page not Found".

http://PC:9000 <- root of mvc application

I have a virtual directory for the wcf named "wcf",

http://pc:9000/wcf/service.svc <- should have accessed the service but routes of the mvc intervened and will display page not found.

how to make this work? How would i ignore the routing if the call is for the service?

.net - Override IIS Virtual Directory/Url In Web Application Project?

Mar 2, 2011

I have a team currently working on a Web Application project, we want to be able to run the project through our local IIS web servers and let each dev map it to whatever virtual directory they like.Currently every time we check in we are stomping on each others virtual dir settings in th cs proj file.I know we could just agree on a virtual directory and stick with it but that does not solve another problem I am having with this where I actually keep multiple copies of the repository on my machine and want to be able to map each to a separate virtual directory.

So the result we are looking for would look like this:Dev1 has a checkout at say c:/dev/Webapp mapped to a virtual dir on their local IIS say localhost/WebAppThen Dev 2 has a checkout at say c:/workspace1/WebApp mapped to a virtual dir say localhost/workspace1/MyWebAppAND Dev 2 has a checkout at say c:/workspace2/WebApp mapped to a virtual dir say localhost/workspace2/WebAppPS. The reason Dev 2 has two checkout is because he uses on for active dev work and the other for merging between branches.

VS 2013 - Virtual Directory Not Being Configured As Application In IIS

Dec 9, 2015

According to this MSDN blog, it should be quite straightforward to add health monitoring to my website by adding this:

Code:
<healthMonitoring>
<rules>
<add name="Application Events"
eventName="Application Lifetime Events"
provider="EventLogProvider"
profile="Default"
minInterval="00:01:00" />
</rules>
</healthMonitoring>

to the <system.web> section of my web.config. However, when I do that I get this error: It is an error to use a section registered as allow Definition=' MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.

what else I might need to tweak? Is the comment about it not being configured as an application likely? It's a struggle to get permission to check the IIS settings, and the website works correctly without this section in the config.

Application Loses Authentication When Performing Redirect To A Virtual Directory?

May 3, 2010

I have the following setup:

[URL]

[URL]

Each virtual directory is configured on IIS6.0 as an application with own AppPool.

When redirecting authenticated user from dir1 to dir2 using response.redirect I lose authentication information for the user and the user is being redirected to the login page. This issue was not coming up with each app (dir1 and dir2) were configured under subdomain, ex: [URL]

I have resolved the issue by adding a machine key to the machine.config file.

Configuration :: IIS6 Virtual Directory And Separate Application Pool?

Feb 17, 2011

Our website has all of the publicly accessible pages at the root and private pages (login required) in a folder below the root (call it "private").Private pages are accessed as

www.oursite.com/private/somepage.aspx.I want to run the pages in the private folder in a separate application pool without changing the URL for private users.I tried making the private folder a virtual directory but then the pages in the private folder did not render(I think because it did not find a web.config in the private folder).Is the answer to simply put a copy of the web.config that resides at the root in the private folder or is that problematic?

Website Versus Web Application

Mar 29, 2010

I am using VS 2008/VB.Net and am trying to figure out if I should use a "Website" or a "ASP.Net Application" project type.

I have to create an online tool to allow users to manage data, there should be no more than 5-10 users at a time on the system. I need to use Profile/Membership with the tool.

I plan to use the <correction> N-layer </correction> (not "n-tier") architecture with a Business layer and DB layer.

I am wondering about the advantages/disadvantages of each.

Is the "website" model really outdated? I notice that the Website model has in built support for many more namespaces but with asp.net application does not, you have to add a lot of references.

IIS Application Pool Crashes When Create Temp Files In Virtual Directory

Aug 25, 2010

I have static content like html,css javascript stored in DB. when a user requests for these i create a temp file in virtual directory and return the url. My web app is hosted on a IIS server. On some systems on creation of a file my IIS Application pool crashes and restarts. If i disable file-monitoring though the problem is resolved, but i dont have this luxury when i am deplying at the client end. Is there any way by which i can avoid app pool crash during file creation? If not is there any way by which i can serve static content like html, css, images, xml and js without creating temp files. I would need a generalized way of handling all these data types.

Architecture :: Allow Each User To Create A Webpage On Domain / Virtual Directory Not Being Configured As An Application In IIS

Mar 1, 2010

I want to allow each user to create a webpage on our domain. example: www.site.com/username

I've created a few pages that get content from database and place it in a folder. I want each user to be able to edit their own data and when they hit "submit". the system will then copy those pages to a folder and modify the code so it read from the right database.

I keep getting "virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS" errors. Is there any way around this error? I want the process to be 100% automatic so that I don't need to manually go into the server and configure the IIS myself.

Installation :: Development To Web Movement: Directory Listing Denied - This Virtual Directory Does Not Allow Contents To Be Listed

Oct 27, 2010

I made a web form on a development website of mine (we'll call it dev.somewhere.com) and tried to publish it out to the web (we'll call it [URL]) in a subfolder. I named it default.aspx like I was supposed to and it worked flawlessly on the dev site. When I published it out the web, I wound up getting the following error when trying to get to the subfolder: [URL] Directory Listing Denied

This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed. Confused and flustered, I tried to go to [URL], but I wound up with some error that won't tell me the problem. Instead it tells me to change the my web.config to read <customErrors mode="Off"/>.
