Security :: Saving To Virtual Folder?
May 31, 2010
I created a website with a file manager where the client can upload, delete, preview etc. This works fint but the problem is that the folders where the files are going to be saved will be on another server. I am testing this locally for now but will deploy it once finished
I setup my website in the IIS. Created a 'Virtual Directory' and linked the directory to a folder in my 'C://'. The virtual Dir path is "~/upload" but when i user Server.Mappath() it gives me "C:/inetpub/wwwroot/website/upload" insted of the actual dir path "C:Documents and SettingsUserMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2008WebSitesWebsiteuploads"

I've got a project that's going to go on a dedicated server environment. I'll be uploading images to the server, but saving them outside of the virtual folder path of the actual website, like so:
protected void UploadImage_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string newFile = "C:\Images\myImage.jpg";
this.cb_fuMainImage.PostedFile.SaveAs(newFile); // from webform <input id="cb_fuMainImage" type="file" runat="server" />
}
Now, this works fine on my home computer. Is there anything I'll need to do with IIS or ASP.NET (possibly in web.config) for this to work properly on a production machine? Settings or permissions that may need changing?...
It will be on Window 2003 with IIS6 and ASP.NET 3.5 SP1.

I have web code that was trying to process a pdf file and it wasn't working - I was getting a path "is not a valid virtual path" error, so in IIS (O/S is Windows 2008 R2) I made the folder a virtual folder. That didn't work and I got it working in another way so I want to make that folder just a regular folder again and not a virtual directory.
Also, I don't understand the way in which I got it working. I had the site working on one server and not another, so I compared them. I realized where it was working I hadn't added an entry to the web.config file that I was trying to read. This is the config entry:
<add key="PdfFolder" value="wherever"/>and this is my code:
Code:
fileName = Server.MapPath(AppSettings("PdfFolder")) & "pdf\_FLYER.pdf"
The absence of the config file entry allowed the code to work. Its presence gave me the virtual directory error. So it's like Server.MapPath resolved to the correct place with a null argument.

I'm not sure that what I need to do is possible.I'm using the SQL SiteMap Provider as the source for my main navigation menu. When a user hits my site, they are asked to enter their location (town name). This preference setting is being stored using the Profile Provider. The page then reloads to showwww.mysite.com/liverpool in the address bar, for example. The information shown on this page is relevant to where they are. I'm using URL rewriting to map this to a page that is passed a parameter (eg. viewZone.aspx?ZoneID=234). I now need to insert the town name into some of the URLs generated from the sitemap. For example:www.mysite.com/cars-for-salewould becomewww.mysite.com/liverpool/cars-for-saleSome URLs would need to remain unchanged such as www.mysite.com/shop.Do you know if this is possible? If needed I could put a placeholder inside the URL in the database - **townName**/cars-for-sale and then run some kind of replacement procedure at run-time, but I don't know where in the execution process I could do that.

So I would like my solution to save in the same folder as the rest of my files. I am a win forms developer so web is new to me.
1) Is there any reason why I shouldn't do that for web.
2) Second how do I do that. I know that I can change the solution's saving location by changing ToolsOptionProjects & SolutionsProject's Location. However, I just want it to use the location of the new website I create and not that specification.

I have a folder with png images that are not shared or public (the folder is outside my application folder). Now I want my users to be able to view thoose images only if they are logged in (different users, different images). All images have a name that correspond to the users id. My idea is to stream thoose images into the asp:Image control, is that possible? How do I do that? Other (better) solutions?

I have uploaded a .jpg image and resized as Small and Large thumbnail. The small image is (135 X 173) but after resizing the small thumbnail image file size is of 40.8 KB. And mostly all images (around 64) thumbnails having file size more than 40 KB. Due to which thumbnails taking lot of time to get display.
Is there a way through which we can reduce the image file size upto 8 to 12 kb, but without effecting image quaity??
Below is the source code that i am using for resizing an image:
If FileUpload1.HasFile Then
Dim stream As Stream = FileUpload1.PostedFile.InputStream
Dim x As String = IO.Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.FileName).ToLower
If x = ".jpg" Or x = ".jpeg" Then
Dim image As New Bitmap(stream)

I have a asp.net website in the IIS which is available on internet as www.xyz.com now I have been asked to prepare another website which will be accessed via www.xyz.com/abc.
For this, do I need to create a virtual directory under the website folder XYZ in IIS? or is there any other way to achieve this.

My client has s website hosted under IIS 6. This website has a subsite as a virtual directory that we need to ensure is only accessed via HTTPS.
We have enabled HTTPS access to the sub-site, but because the root site is configured to use HTTP, this is being inherited by the sub-site and you can access it unsecured. How can we prevent this?
The only potential option I've found so far is this implementation of IHttpModule. Is there nothing in the web.config I can set, as you can the security on a WCF binding?

I'm using IIS7.5 and Windows Authentication through an ISA server. I'm trying to migrate a classic ASP application to ASP.net.
We have an internal file server with our department folders on and I'm trying to provide web based access to these. Previously I created a UNC virtual directory to the \serverdepartments share, and because ASP classic ran in the context of the authenticated user they could only browse folders they had permission to.
What security settings should I now be using for the Application Pool and what settings should I use on the Virtual Directory credentials to ensure security? I'd like the ASP.net page to run in the context of the logged in user, and when the code tries to display a sub-folder they don't have access to it should 'bomb out' as before.

It took me 6 hours to figure this one out and I'm wondering if someone can give me an answer why it has to work this way. I have two PCs, one is a webserver win2k 2003 and the other is the file server running Windows XP. Both PCs are on the same company domain therefore they can see each user. The share folder has NETWORK, NETWORK SERVICE, USERS (which include IIS authenticated users), a LOCAL account, and a specific User (which is me) that is given access to read. In my web application, I call a server.mappath. In IIS6.0, anonymous is disabled so users use integrated Windows Authentication. I can see this by verifiying User.Identity.Name.ToString(); Next, I also check WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.ToString();. In my first run, I set impersonate to true and thats it. Both User.Identity and both Windows.Identity show: mydomainsmith_B as an example.
When trying to access the UNC virtual path whcih has "Always use the authenticated user's credentials when validating access to the network directory" checked. This means , IIS6.0 will pass mydomainsmith_B credentials to the file server. I get an access denied which is verified by a thrown exception. I go back and check the file server and under the security tabs, I did add myself which shows smith_B under the security and for kicks, I'm also under Share tab.
Next, I try to authenticate using a "LOCAL" account on the file server. The local account is called username/password: temp/temp. So I set web.config to impersonate=true, userName=temp password=temp. Okay, so I go back into IIS 6.0 and for the virtual directory, I go to "Connect As" and set Username and password to: temp/temp and un-check "always use the authenticated user's credential". Finally, i reload the page. This time the page shows me:
User.Identity.Name: mydomainsmith_B
WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name: temp
perfect, so now I'm impersonating temp. I click a button to access the UNC path and boom, it all works. So why doesn't my local PC authenticate ME, as MYSELF, which is on the domain, which is on the same domain. Why do I have to impersonate a local account to the file server? Why can't I just impersonate myself? Also, If I disable impersonation, it becomes NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE. This service also can't access the UNC path even when I have enabled the same security and same share settings.
