I have set up a copy of a website on a server and think I Have replicated the folder permissions and the IIS settings, but I am getting a windows authentication prompt, once i login with my admin details the site loads.
View 3 RepliesI have an asp.net c# site that I have setup in IIS 7 and am loading into a sharepoint frame. Sharepoint doesn't prompt for domain credentials but my site does?In IIS I have enabled basic and windows authentication so I can get the domain users username, so if there is a way to get this without prompting that'd be a perfect solution for me.I am using the follwing statement to get username:
System.Web.
HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name
I have a .NET 3.5 application running under IIS 7 on Windows 2003 server and cannot get integrated windows authentication working properly as I continue to get prompted for a login. I have set Windows Authentication to enabled in IIS with all other security types
disabled and my application web.config file authentication/authorization is set up as:
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" strict="false" explicit="true" targetFramework="3.5" />
<authenticationmode="Windows"/>
<authorization>
<deny users = "?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
With this setup, I'm expecting behind the scene verification of the Windows user to allow access and deny anonymous users. However, what I'm getting is a Windows login pop-up when I try to access the site. I have been troubleshooting this issue for a few days now and cannot figure out the problem. Based on posts with similar problems, I confirmed my URL does not include any periods, double checked that my IE settings are set to Enable Integrated Windows Authentication, and also added my URL to my intranet sites, but still getting the pop-up. To troubleshoot it further, I enabled Anonymous Authentication in IIS and modified my web.config file to which lets me right in and then added Response.Write(System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentifity.getcurrent().user.name.toString()) to try to see what user is being used in the authentication. The result I'm getting is IIS APPPOOLmyapp which is obviously the IIS application pool for my application.
I'm still using only windows authentication but don't get the pop-up and the windows authentication is performed against the actual Windows user. Just noticed that when the login fails and the Windows login prompt displays again, it is showing the username that attempted to login as "SERVERNAME""USERNAME" which led me to believe it was trying to validate the user against the server vs. the domain. To confirm this, I created a local user account directly on the app server with the same username and password as the network domain user and tried to login again. The result was that I received the login prompt again but when I entered the username and password this time, I was able to successfully login. The network user and app server are on the same domain so really not sure why IIS authentication is pointing to the local app server accounts and not to the domain accounts. I realize this is an IIS question at this point so posting on forums.iis.net as well but anyone may have since have been troubleshooting this for days.
I am using forms authentication. It's works fine locally. Once I upload my web application to a remote iis server and run it I get a Windows authentication prompt. The server [URL] at [URL] requires a username and password.
View 1 RepliesFrom Flex we call a Upload.aspx page which is configured for anonymous authentication. Most of the time, it works like a charm, but once in a while, the browser does prompt a enter credentials popup...The whole site is configured for Windows Authentication, but some pages and folders are set to use anonymous authentication. This is done using the location tag in web.config.What could be the reason for this?
View 3 RepliesSince last week I've had a really odd issue with PageMethods and the back button which i've never seen before.
Essentially, I have a 'home page' which on document.ready (using jQuery), loads some data through PageMethods, and then renders a list - from which you can click through to a details page about the item. In general use, it works fine. However, using the back button after clicking through (ie: going back to the home page), it throws a PageMethods error. The browser's 'authentication required' prompt appears, and if you click cancel, the server returns a 401. The error returned by PageMethods on the client side is 'authentication failed'.
Just FYI, the application is using ASP.NET forms authentication. The weird thing is, this happens as soon as you click the link and click back. It's not like the authentication cookie has expired or anything, and if you click cancel when the prompt appears and refresh the page, it works fine. I just can't work out what is going on.
I've tried disabling caching on the page [as I thought it was something to down with some browsers' caches of the DOM), but the same thing happens.
One workaround i've had is to redirect the page to itself if the PageMethods error is 'authentication failed', which does work - but only when you cancel the authentication prompt. Obviously the prompt appears, which is not ideal.
I don't understand it, and the user is clearly authenticated. Does anyone have any idea which might be happening?
It's happening in Chrome, Firefox, and IE.
We have developed a website in asp.net using windows authentication and deployed it on the intranet (IIS v6.0). Most of the times, when users try to access this website they are taken straight to the website, but occasionally some users get a prompt to enter their windows username and password. I understand that this could be caused because of several reasons like:
Cached active directory password. Recently active directory password changed. Active directory account locked out. I want to fix this issue for good because it is annoying the users.

I have an Intranet web site that uses Windows Authentication and when a users password expires the do not get a prompt letting them reset it. We also have OWA and if they go there to check mail, it sends them to a page which allows them to reset it there. How can I trap for expired passwords and allow them to change it like they can with OWA?

View 13 RepliesI have VB code that parses XML data from a webpage. Up until 2 days ago the XML data could be viewed right on the page and I could just grab the HTML source code to get the information. Now they have changed the page to a link button to download the XML file.
The problem is that when I click on the XML link I get the 'File Download Prompt' which asks me to run or save the file. I figured I could just save the file to temp directory and then open it up to parse it in my VB app but I can't figure out how to grab the file from the browser in my application.

I am using asp.net and I need to display a prompt to the user if they have made changes to the web page, and they accidentally close down the browser.
The page could be anything from "Edit Profile" to a "Submit a Claim" etc.
How can I can display the messagebox, ensuring that it is displayed only if changes have been made (as opposed to, the user making changes, then undo-ing the changes, and shutting down the browser)
I've written an ASP.net site that requires the use of a 3rd party ActiveX control.
Everything works as expected however when a new user visits the page for the first time they do not get a firts time prompt to install the activeX control. (the yellow bar in IE).
I believe this question has been asked before but I still couldn't find the appropriate answer.
My scenario is like this:
When the user click on a button, it will dynamically generate a .xls and prompt the user to download.I have used transmitfile but it doesn't allows the file to be deleted. I have also used outputstream.write but it doesn't delete the file after flush. Instead it will hold onto the .xls and no modification can be done to the file.

I have a problem with a simple site that is not requiring login. When run in internet explorer
it works as it should. But when I try to access the page with Mozilla Firefox or Apples Safari
i get a login prompt and no valid useraccount can be entered. I have tried setting authentication mode to either Windows or Forms but it makes no difference.
I can cancel to get the page to load but then I see my logo is not showing

As said before with IE everything works OK!! Frustrating, probably something simple...
Even more frustrating On another server it works OK,
Application in Swedish server works
Application in US Server does not work with other browsers but IE.
Same setup for server, IIS 6 Windows server 2003 .Net 2 & 3.5
I have two very similar pieces of ASP.NET code that send a file in an HTTP Reponse to the client. They should cause the browser to prompt to save the file. The first one works, the second one doesn't. The HTTP responses as seen in Fiddler are below.
Working:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: private
Content-Length: 228108
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
content-disposition: attachment; filename=Report.xlsx
Date: Wed, 05 Jan 2011 12:17:48 GMT
<binary data>
Not working:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: ASP.NET Development Server/10.0.0.0
Date: Wed, 05 Jan 2011 12:19:21 GMT
X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
Content-Length: 228080
content-disposition: attachment; filename=report 2.xlsx
Cache-Control: private
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
Connection: Close
<binary data>
When the first one is seen in Fiddler the browser correctly prompts to save the file. When the second one is seen in Fiddler, nothing observable happens in the browser. Same behaviour in both chrome and firefox.
EDIT: ASP.NET code that produces the second response
Response.Buffer = false;
Response.ContentType = @"application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet";
Response.AppendHeader("content-length", genstream.Length.ToString());
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", string.Format("attachment; filename={0}.xlsx", filename));
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
genstream.Position = 0;
int n;
while ((n = genstream.Read(buffer, 0, 1024) ) > 0)
{
Response.OutputStream.Write(buffer, 0, n);
}
