Due to some strange things I need to write an http module that sends a status code 200 whenever it recieves a request for an .ics file. I tried to do this in the begin request setion of the http module but that doesnt seem to be soon enough.
I have a very simple query. I have added custom header to my website. Now I want to read the custom header. I am using IIS 6.0 on windows XP. I have already tried using using the Request.ServerVariables and and Request.header method. But none of them give me the custom header added to website.
I'm trying to secure my web application so XML files it contains can't be downloaded. I thought it would be as simple as adding these to the "httpHandlers" section of web.config:
This failed - the XML files could still be downloaded easily. I tried different browsers in case they were caching, but everything could download the XML files without any trouble. I thought this might be due to some special handling of XML, so I tried mocking up an alternative based on ".txt123" files. I added this file with some dummy content:
We have a handler to deal with .dat files.. everything is already setup and server is acknowledging the file type and doing its thing to handle it..
But the handler requires 1 bit of information along with the HTTP request which is a physical file path.. the file name it knows based on the file we call , but how can i pass a custom header along with the request so that the handler will use that when the request is made?
Basically when on our player.aspx page, i will have a button, when you click that button a request is made to the .dat file, but along with that request i need to send the physical file path.. how can i do that?
i have a custom handler which captures user's book mark entry. To debug this handler, i have created a file "test1.txt" in code behind which saves the user entry. After the debug, i removed the text file (test1.txt) then re-complied the web app and deployed new DLLs for the site. But, the site is still looking for test1.txt file. i dont know how to confirm if the handler is really removed from the new DLL. Also, looked at the handler code behind file and didn't find any entry with test1.txt. So,
I am writing a custom HTTP module to implement user authentication and appropriate access rights. And for identifying access rights for the user also depends on identifying the client's machine details like IP address, machine name, etc. The access rights will depend based on from which location or machine the user is trying to login.
Can we get these details from the HttpApplication or HttpContext object?
As im new to this concept,i request anyone to explain in detail about configuring the custom handlers in IIS 5.1 STEP by STEP and also about mapping the extension.
I created an application and implemented IHTTPHandler for all incoming request ending with ".aspx" extension.Under "ProcessRequest" module, I am creating an instance of HttpContext (with URL attributes different from my application's URL i.e. if I am working on localhost then speciying Yahoo.com as its URL) and assigning it to "context" which comes as method argument.After redirection, an error is generated. Also, the custom HTTPContext is not passed to the requested page (default.aspx, in my case.)Code is as follows.
When I have a HttpHandler class in C#/ASP.NET mapped to a file extension in IIS any file with that extension fails to download/display in web browsers (it's downloaded as a 0-byte file in some browsers and nothing at all in other browsers). After removing the application mapping for the HttpHandler in IIS so it doesn't call the IHttpHandler class in C#, the web browser downloads the file successfully.
This was tested with an IHttpHandler class in C# that has an empty ProcessRequest method.
How do we findout the whether the application is using any HTTPModules and httphandler in the applicaion?Is there anyway to findout from the url without checking the web.config file?
I got a website [URL] and I want to redirect http://www.example.com/folder to http://folder.example.com so if folder has a page called example1.aspx [URL]
It should be called in this way:
http://folder.example.com/example1.aspx Is that possible that using IIS 7 and asp.net 4.
eg: Folder/StaticPage.aspx?PageName=TestPage is re-written as
Folder/TestPage
This works fine on my local dev. machine on the Cassini server. But when its hosted in IIS (5.1 & 7.0) it fails to work, with the error as 404 Page Not Found.
I am using Httphandler to access my pages. Have Loginstatus Control on the master pages.
OnLoggingOut for the Loginstatus control I am doing a Session.abandon()... But My session_end
does not get called in the Gobal.asax.I tried link button and everything. but when I take out the httphandler the Session_end gets executed in global.asax
I can handle the full session end on my own but is there any way to call Session_end in global.asax?
the project i'm working right now, client wants to make url seo friendly, if any event would enter from the admin section the url should show the name of the event itself.
right now it shows www.--------.com/eventdetails.aspx?id=879878
