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.
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?
I have a CLR 4 WCF service hosted in IIS 7.5 (Windows Server 2008 R2), using the WebHttp binding (with [WebGet]). The service calls into an unmanaged component implemented in C++ (Visual Studio 2010). I deliberately added an access violation inside the unmanaged component (by calling delete on a pointer repeatedly, calling methods through a deleted pointer, etc.) to test dump file generation settings. The access violation crashes the w3wp.exe process, which is not surprising considering "Corrupted State Exceptions" in CLR 4. However, when the process restarts (due to warmup and always-on settings in IIS), the same request seems to be replayed to the service so that it crashes the w3wp.exe process again. After a few times (governed by the "max failures" application pool setting) the application pool is stopped.
I'm using the browser as the test client, and while the restart sequence is underway the request is still in flight. When the application pool is stopped, the request returns with 503 Service Unavailable. I can work around the problem by placing try...catch block around the code and using the [HandleProcessCorruptedStateExceptions] attribute. When I do that, the w3wp.exe process does not crash. However, this is not the desired behavior -- I want the process to crash (an access violation or a memory corruption is bad enough) but I want it to restart into a clean state and not have the request replayed. I was not able to reproduce the problem using the BasicHttp binding.
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.
I am seeing temp files created in my wesite directory. The files are attributed to a page that I load from a txt file for more info. I beleive when I user clicks on the more info link and I read the textfile into the page it creates the temp file named somthing like this moreinfo.aspx~RF1630b1e.TMP does anyone know a way to clean these up other than a manual task? below is the code I use to read in the txt file
<script language="vb" runat="server"> Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Dim strURLNAme As String Dim MyFileName As String strURLNAme = Request.QueryString("AdultInfo") ' Response.Write(strURLNAme) If strURLNAme = "adult" Then MyFileName = "AdultMoreInfo.txt" ElseIf strURLNAme = "kids" Then MyFileName = "KidsMoreInfo.txt" End If 'Open a file for reading Dim FILENAME As String = Server.MapPath(MyFileName) 'read the file Dim objStreamReader As StreamReader objStreamReader = File.OpenText(FILENAME) 'read the entire file into a string Dim contents As String = objStreamReader.ReadToEnd() Me.lblNicerOutput.Attributes.CssStyle.Add("text-align", "Left") 'We may wish to replace carraige returns with <br>s lblNicerOutput.Text = contents '.Replace(vbCrLf, "<br>") objStreamReader.Close() End Sub </script>
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.
I need to create temp file on the clint side So, i read that files can be created on the folder of internet temp file. how I can do that?how I can get the path of the temp folder?I need VB code
Assuming here that I have full control over the server.I'm looking for a sample code that would help me understand how to create a new virtual directory on the IIS pointing to say C:
I'm new to IIS, I just want to create a virtual directory in IIS. I'm using WINDOWS7.When I Browse my Default file it throws the folling Error,Error SummaryHTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server ErrorThe requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.
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.
I am working in a .net C# .In my application I have to create in theIIS>local computer>Web Sites>Default Web Site - virtual directory and also I want to be able tochange properties of this vitrual directory (All process of creation virtual directory in the IIS I want to do programmaticaly).
I had make a program in C# for create a Virtual Directory.But i didn't able to edit its property..
After this i have to implement all this program in .Net Remoting 0r WCF.
COMPLETE NOOB, dont know anything.. I have a Virtual directory ~/ClubInfoFiles that i upload some files too using a uploader i made. I might want to change the uploader i made to be able to change to a subdirectory or something so i can upload all files into one folder but different subdirectorys. the uploader i would like to be able to have a dropdown menu of all the subdirectorys within "ClubInfoFiles" say i has subfolders : Minutes, Flight Plans, Maintence Records, etc... but i would also like a field to where i can create a new subdirectory and have it automaticly update the dropdown. i want to list those files in gridview and have a link to dowload/open and dellete the files. i have found some code that gets close but it uses Auto Generate columns. really i dont need all that jazz, just the Name, File extention, and hyperlink the file for download/view. i would like to be able to delete and possible upload using the gridview... is this to much for a noob?
Error 1 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. C:PdfViewerPdfTestSiteWeb.Config 28

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.

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?
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.
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.
I am trying to get settle with my new dev environement and when I create a new web project and try to run it on IIS instead of the virtual server and use the create Virtual Directory button I get the following error message:
Unable to create the vitual directory. To aceess local Web sites, you must install the following IIS components:
IIS6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility ASP.NET
In Addition, you must run Visual Studio in the context of an administrator account.
PS: I was running VS 2010 as an administrator when I got this error
