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
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 am really stumped on this. I have IIS setup on my local box, and a virtual directory pointed to the folder MapBuilder. IUSR and IWAM have been given full access. When I run this through web developer, everything works great. When I access it through IIS, the following error is generated:
[Code]....
The line of code that generates the error is:
[Code]....
If I change the code to use a virtual directory I get the same basic error on the Overview.Save call:
I have load balanced web servers My application has a function that allows the user to upload their company logo to display in the application header obviously, when they upload the logo image file, it needs to be in a central location or otherwise, the file will not be accessible to the other server on the load balancer. in order to be able to upload the image through the application other one of either servers and then display it on both servers I need a virtual directory on both servers that point to a third "file server" (this is the "AcctData" directory shown below with a sub folder "images")
If I use pass-through authentication I get a 401 error. If I use a specific user that's set up on both boxes, I get a 500 error. I've also tried sticking a Web.config file in the "AcctData" directory allowing anonymous access.
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.
as it uses the relative path the http module is unable to understand the path and throwing following error
The file '/Root/Pages/Master/Site.Master' does not exist.
error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.
I've created a virtual directory on a hard drive where I keep some jpg files, the problem is when I access a page that links to a jpg file it asks for a username and password, is there anyway to stop that from happening?
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.
how to create a asp.net mvc form helper that takes virtual directory into consideration? In testing our dev server has: [URL] production is: [URL] I need the form post url to reflect if we have a virtual directory or not, is this possible?
We have created a website and for the secured files created a virtual directory and in virtual directory properties we selected Application-user(pass through authentication).If any user directly browse the files link then the browser prompts a screen for virtual directory credentials.Here my requirement is i need to send the virtual directory credentials through the application.
A month ago I got everything working but now my code has changed and my server may have been misconfigured.
Basically, I'm running IIS 6.0 and Win2k 2003. The webserver will map a network path UNC share at: //wave/test
Also, I have webconfig set up to do: impersonate = true (no username/password defined)
the path //wave/test is another computer that runs Windows XP. Wave is the computer name, test is the folder name. So C: est is the folder to access. The current permissions under C: est on the file server is: Administrator, IUSR_WEB (read-only) and "Wave_user" (read-only)
Back in WinServer 2003, i've added a virtual directory and mapped to \wave est and applied a local username/password for Wave_user. I am able to see/browse all the files in IIS 6.0 and see the files/folders. I call the virtual directory alias: "Waves". Inside Authentication method for this virtual directory, i applied Wave_user and the local password of the local file-server PC , and checked enable anonymous access w/ integrated windows authentication.
Also, back in virtual directory, I set "Connect As" to wave est as username and password as the local password.
When I access the webapplication, using my current local PC credential, and try to access the network share, which in C# is the command: server.mappath@("wave"... i get a Server Error 401. in the browser.
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.
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 creating virtual directory from my C# code when i execute this code working every finely.
But problem is when i publish this code and access through iis it is showing an error as access denied .
i tried to give permissions to the folder in c:\inetpub\wwwrootfoldername Network service and users provided permissions of full control But still showing an error of Access Denied(mine is iis 5.0 in xp)
I have a WCF service in a virtual directory that is called in the code behind of a page that is in the parent directory, when i debug the code i can see the wcf service is being called, however when the service calls Membership.GetUser() it alway returns null. The user has already logged in to the asp.net site. When i call the service via jquery it does pick up the correct user, but i need to be able to call it via the code behind as well. I am developing in .Net 3.5 how i can make the Wcf pick up the logged in user?
I made a web form on a development website of mine (we'll call it dev.somewhere.com) and tried to publish it out to the web (we'll call it [URL]) in a subfolder. I named it default.aspx like I was supposed to and it worked flawlessly on the dev site. When I published it out the web, I wound up getting the following error when trying to get to the subfolder: [URL] Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed. Confused and flustered, I tried to go to [URL], but I wound up with some error that won't tell me the problem. Instead it tells me to change the my web.config to read <customErrors mode="Off"/>.
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.
