I wanna serve my application in ISS to be accessed from many different URL's on my web server.
eg.
http://example.com/test1
http://example.com/test2
Both these URL's get served by the same application.
I do NOT however want to just create new virtual applications to the application, because it stuffs up the user membership roles. The users and their roles must exist accross the two URL's.
I did have this working but now something has stopped it (after trying to integrate combres)
My dev machine is win 7x64, running VS2008. I have a solution with number projects (mostly libraries), one was a webapplication. This webapplication used http://127.0.0.1/ to debug through. That site was configured to point to the home directory of that web application.
It was set up this way because i was URL Rewriting and that was the only way i could get it working
However now whenever i start up visual studio it complains that the local IIS has not been configured, would you like to create the virtual directory. If i say no then the project is not loaded, if i say yes then the process fails with could not find the server http://127.0.0.1 on the local machine. Creating a virtual directory is only supporting on the local IIS server.
I can edit the XML of the project file to turn off Use IIS in which case i can load the project but the site doesn't work through the integrated visual studio server.
I've tried removing the website in IIS7 and removing the AppPool and rebuilding but no go.
I'm trying to enumerate the directories and sub directories in a Windows Form using a Tree View. I can view the directories but when I want to see the files in the sub directories I only see the files from the root.

I'm building an Iphone application, which has to retrieve information from a database on a server.
I thought about building a C# web service on the server,so the Iphone app will send a http request to the web service and get the required data as a xml output. Are there any better alternatives? for instance: I never tried but heard about WCF, maybe it's better using it instead of the older xml web service technology?
I want my application to serve all of its web pages over SSL, so I added the lines...
<secureWebPages enabled="true">
<directory path="." />
</secureWebPages>
... to my Web.config and the resulting compiler error is:

I am running Visual Studio 2008
i have different number of directories containing files and i need to have hyperlinks so that user can download files to their ends. problem is that these directories are outside the application directory. how to map these files paths and name so that when user right click and save it on his machine or just clicking it..... what i have to do beside setting permission to reading those directories..
View 7 RepliesI have a bigger ASP.NET based webapplication, which is structured into subwebs (as described on [URL]How can I share user specific information (user credentials, other informations) between these subwebs? The point is that the subwebs have all their own virtual directories and therefore different sessions. Are there other possibilities besides cookies to have a shared (user/browser session based) memory?
View 1 RepliesMy ASP.NET application logs transactions (both inside AND outside of databases), and therefore needs read/write access to text files within various directories within the root of the website - in ADDITION to the normal database access.
In this scenario, how can I safely allow my ASP.NET application to write data to the web folders? I have a thread-safe DLL that performs the actual work, so I don't believe I need to worry about multiple sessions writing to the log files at the exact same time - assuming my DLL will only be running in a single instance/process that will be shared between numerous ASP.NET instances/processes/threads.
But I'm more concerned about file access permissions. I've heard that ASP.NET applications generally aren't allowed access to the webserver's local file system, and that this may even restrict my DLL from getting the correct file access. Can I grant my application file-access to the web-driectories?
we want all these requests to point back to www.site.com and not have to physically create the files and directories for every type of site... so if I just create a virtual directory (www.site.com/india) and point it to www.site.com... then I figure I can look at the URL and set some parameters/text/images accordingly to fill out the template
View 4 RepliesI've got an ASP MVC (1.0) application. It works fine locally via visual studio and on our dev server which runs IIS6. But when I try to deploy to the Test server (running IIS7 on Windows Server 2008 R2) I get only :"Could not load file or assembly '<ApplicationName>' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied" (where <ApplicationName> is the name of my application). This is followed by a "FileLoadException", a "ConfigurationErrorsException" and two "HttpException" (all with the same message as above)I deployed via publishing to an empty directory, whose contents were then zipped and transferred to the site directory on the test server. If I copy the directories contents to my IIS installation it works fine. I've checked that networkservices has permission to access the site directories and the temporary directories, which were the solutions I found via google,
View 2 RepliesI want my .net2.0 webservice application to run on IIS7.0 under CLR4.0, Is this possible simply creating an apppool with Classic,.netframework 4.0 settings and pointing my app to this pool? I have tried this and it works fine, but want to confirm on right track?
View 2 RepliesI want Deploy a MVC2 application in IIS7.
What Can I do?
I have a web application and when I decided to test on IIS 7 i have this Exception when trying to load a couple of pages that uses Entity Framework 4. I use EF 4 with my own CRUD assemblies but sometimes using the EntityDataSource. I have noticed that the problem is not appearing in all my Web Pages but I think in those that I use the EntityDataSource.
Here's the log from a Page:

I think its the EDM problem but I can't get through.
I should mention that in my development pc is working all perfectly!!!
My controls are DevExpress but I dont think this should play any role!
[EDIT]
Forgot to mention that I use Self tracking Template with the Entities.tt in a separate assembly!
[EDIT 2]
On my local Windows 7 IIS works OK! It's Windows Server 2008 I can't get it done!
I am using windows authentication without impersonation on my company's intranet website with IIS7.
Under IIS7, what account is used to access the folder which contains my web app using these settings?
Would it be IIS_IUSRS? Or NETWORK SERVICE? Or another I don't know about?
Application Pool may contain multiple worker processes (w3wp.exe) ?Application Pool may contain multiple Asp.NET Applications ?Asp.NET assigns one ThreadPool per AppDomain ?One AppDomain only contain one Web Application Instance but Application can contain multiple AppDomains ?
Edit : These questions are related to IIS 6x or higher, in which App Domains are available.
I have published my site using Visual Stuido's 2008 publish feature. I have then copied these files to a windows 2008 web server with IIS7 installed, it also has .net 3.5 sp1 and MVC installed In IIS I added the site using the 'Add a new site' right click option and then pointed this at the directory my site files are located in, I used the default application pool and it is set to integrated. Then when I attempt to browse I got the error message The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory. So I added Default.aspx to the default document list and I then get the following error message
HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map. Has anyone got any ideas on what I do next ? I have read lots of articles on this online but most are confusing and dont explain the solution in simple terms Surely it should be pretty straightforard to just deploy an MVC website to IIS7
We have a set of about 30-50 users who periodically need an ASP.net (version 4) application directory created for them.
As these numbers grow, manually creating an application directory for each user becomes cumbersome on IIS 7.
Is there a way to create these application folders using a batched/scripted/automated mechanism of some kind?
Ideally we'd like to provide input parameters of a file that contains a batch of application-names, and have the script automatically create the application directories in IIS.
We are working on a web application that creates more web applications.Each web application will have to get a Url Rewrite rule (URL REWRITE MODULE 2.0).As far as I know, there's no way to add such rules without modifying the web.config file (am I right??).So my plan was to work with multiple web.config partial files. One main .config file, and lots of .config files per application (every file will contain it's web application url rewrite rules).This way sounds a little bit messy, but I can't think of anything else, and suggestions will be welcomed.
View 1 RepliesI have a number of ASP.NET (4.0) web applications that appear to leak (a small amount) of memory during each request. It is such a small amount, that for most use-cases, it will not grow to become a problem for weeks or even months at a time. I generally try to be good with closing any connections managed by the application, avoiding state-variables (or instance variables for my singleton), etc. My question is this - is this normal behavior for ASP.NET applications? I had turned off the default (IIS 7) behavior of recycling the app pool after 20 minutes of being idle. I do this since the application takes a few minutes to build its internal cache, and I want to avoid negatively impacting the user experience (and having them wait for the application to start when they issue the request).
View 1 RepliesI don't know if it's IIS, ASP.NET or IIS7 related. I take a chance here, if you think I'm in the wrong forum, just tell me which one I should post to.
I have made the smallest demo project to illustrate my problem. You can download the sources
Here
Visual Studio 2008, .NET 3.5, IIS7, Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bits. The IIS Website is configured
ONLY for Windows Authentication in an Integreated pipeline app pool (DefaultAppPool).
Here's the problem. I have an Asp.NET MVC 2 application. In an action, I start a thread. The View returns.
The thread is doing it's job... but it needs to access Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity.Name
BANG
The worker process of IIS7 stops. I have a window that says: "Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger An unhandled exception ('System.Object.DisposedException') occured in w3wp.exe [5524]"
I checked with the debugger and the Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity is valid, but the Name property is disposed.
If I put a long wait in the action before it returns the view, then the Thread can do it's job and the Identity.Name is not disposed. So I think the Name gets disposed when the view is returned.
For the sake of the discussion, here's the code that the thread runs (but you can also download the demo project. The link is on top of this post):

Pardon if this is more serverfault vs. stackoverflow. It seems to be on the border.
We have an application that caches a large amount of product data for an e-commerce application using ASP.NET caching. This is a dictionary object with 65K elements, and our calculations put the object's size at ~10GB. Problem:
The amount of memory the object consumes seems to be far in excess of our 10GB calculation. BIGGEST CONCERN: We can't seem to use over 60% of the 32GB in the server.
What we've tried so far:
In machine.config/system.web (sf doesn't allow the tags, pardon the formatting):
processModel autoConfig="true" memoryLimit="80"
In web.config/system.web/caching/cache (sf doesn't allow the tags, pardon the formatting):
privateBytesLimit = "20000000000" (and 0, the default of course)
percentagePhysicalMemoryUsedLimit = "90"
Environment:
Windows 2008R2 x64
32GB RAM
IIS7
Nothing seems to allow us to exceed the 60% value.
See screenshot of taskman.

I am thinking about setting up a new domain to host static content on my website and have it cookieless just like Stackoverflow with their static domain. So before going ahead and buying the domain and setting it up I wanted to test it on my developement machine first under localhost (I have to mention that i am planning on having IIS running on my new domain for the static files). I therefore created a new application under IIS and disabled session state and forms authentication. When my main application needs resources like css, images and js , I use the path to the "static" application where they are hosted.
The problem is that when I look at the request and the response for the requested files, they still have the session_id cookie defined as well as the asp.net authentication cookie. Is it at all possible to accomplish what i am trying to do on a development machine or do i have to just go ahead and purchase the new domain which hopefully with make things right? I tried to read about cookieless domain but can't figure out what i might be missing.
What need to change in asp.net application if web server update from IIS6 to IIS7?
View 2 Repliesexactly as the question subject states - any ideas on how you might do this?I've been looking over the objects in System.Web.Hosting but nothing is standing out.
he reason? I'm getting one or two application errors which are typically occuring during a recycle (they happen about 25 hours apart and I've left my app pool recycle time at the default) and so I want to know if they're happening on a thread that's in the pool that's shutting down, or the one that's start(ed/ing) up.
I have a config file linked from web.config e.g.<features configSource="feature.config" />When I make changes to the "feature.config" file the IIS application appears to restart, is this expected behaviour?
