The example above is specifying that all directories will be locked down to anonymous users except the two directories dir1 and dir2. I'm curious if there is a syntax that I can use that will allow me to define more than one directory within one location element. For example, it would be convenient if we could do something like this...
got a folder named profile with about 4 pages in it. i used this tag to protect the directory but it only works if i go www.mysite.com/profile. if i specifically try to go to a page like www.mysite.com/profile/mypage.aspx it lets me in and doesn't block my access or drive me to the login page as it's supposed to
Now since i'm securing the site i've noticed that the location element does not get much attention.The only thing i have found is that you can use <location path="" allowOverride="false"> on machine.config .I'm not sure how this goes but if you need to use this one every page then i will have multiple problems.First if i have a page with the same name on another website there is trouble and also if i need to update pages again problem.What i'm not sure of is if the location element on machine.config i just used once and then magically every site you have will throw an exception if a hacker changes you web.config.I have doubts and it's confusing and if i play with the server web.config,well i don't wanna mess with that.
So i also tried to encrypt the location element but i cannot find an example(can you encrypt it?).I can encrypt authorization and authentication but i will not go inside the location element.Just the standard authorization and authentication nodes.How can i secure the web.config location element so no hacker can change the allow,deny,etc.
We would like to add styles and images to location, e.g. location path="images, styles". Is it possible to put multiple paths in location element (and how)?
I wanted to impose specific timeout interval and request length on some specific pages that uploads documents of size up to 50MB. Hence I did the following config changes after going through some sites.
I keep getting error when I run the application. I tried various other ways like giving the complete path like <sitename>/<applicationname>/<v.folder name>/<filename>.I tried this on both IIS 6.0 and IIS 7.0.
I want to be able to search for path of Secure and find out the user role that is specified. My input is the path, such as "Secure" and the value I'm trying to retrieve is "SecureUsers".
I want to delete location path using parameter textbox and allow user ..
example :
location path = textbox1 allow user = textbox2
explanation : i enter name of location path in the texbox1 and allow user  in the texbox2, when i click button delete then location path based on parameter textbox1 and textbox2 in web config will be remove..
I'm looking at an asp.net application, i notice that there are assemblies defined into two places. In web.config there is configuration/system.web/compilation/assemblies/add elements. In the project file there are references setup under the Project/ItemGroup/Reference elements.
I was wondering, what is the difference between assemblies/references added in either location?
I have a page that shows a list of the files in an upload directory. ie: My customer uploads a file through my web page and the file ends up in the proper directory. When I click on a file name, the url path is missing the directory name. It's as if my customer uploaded directly to my root. Interestingly, when I upload a file through the same web page, the path remains intact and I am able to click on the link and download the file. How can I get the proper path in my url name. Here is my code .
Let's imagine you have an asp.net page in front of you full of input elements, user controls and panels etc. And you are asked to modify a specific textBox and you do not know where that textBox stands in your project. Most of the time I use FireBug and try to see the Id of that element but it is not the best way all the time. So, What is the fastest way you believe that can be used to locate the source file that houses a specific html element in your web project?
am using Asp.Net C# 2.0. My website is working fine in local. Website contains 2 js files included in master page. It works fine in local environment, but when i publish my website i get "Object expected" error on page load, and thus the js functions are not working in published website. Currently I am writing:
I am confused as to what to do with these. I have .cs files in App_Code. I also have other files in App_Data, and Bin. Could I just create these folders, make them virtual directories and upload my files as normal? Or do I need to do something special with these folders/files? Im really stuck on this. Also, this is a "shared hosting" account.
I am creating a control that contains an html5 audio element and I want to be able to change the source of the audio dynamically. I can access the audio element in C# but am unable to figure out how to change the src attribute.
I need to save the selected File in my this location.My Actual path is this \zdcprojectCCHIS_NCHS_NVSSDEVNDI.When I add actula path its not accepting. I am getting this message 'unrecognized escape sequence'.So I replaced with with '\' . When I am executing its returing this path 'Failed to map the path '/zdc/project/CCHIS_NCHS_NVSS/DEV/NDI/'.How can I save my actula path.
We have an application that is making use of the location tag in the web.config file at the machine level - meaning like :WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0...CONFIGweb.config, the one that applies to the whole server - this application has lots of virtual directories under it and for each one there is a <location path="IIS Web App NameCustomerA">...This seems to work ok for that app. But then we have a second app on the same server, and I'd like to add location tags to that app's web.config file - meaning the local web.config file in the app's directory - and have each one of them specify a location tag in a similar way
aspnet_regiis.exe -pdf "connectionStrings" c:web.config And this is the error I got. Error - "The configuration for physical path 'C:Web.Config' cannot be opened. And the permissions of that file is not read only.
The url format is somewhat like: [URL] To allow users to visit the login and recovery page, I've added the following entries to my web.config:
[code]....
Is there a form of notation so that I can skip the en-GB part and replace it with a wildcard? I want the login and recovery page etc. to be available regardless of the culture.
Is it possible to have location authorization nodes in a web.config be external?
Such that I could take all of the nodes simlar to
[code]....
And move them outside of the web.config or something simlar? I find these nodes at an extreme amount of noise to a web.config when they're relatively static. Normally my approach would be to config source something like this but since it falls under the root node I'm not sure of it's possible with these nodes.
I'm looking to deploy a web app and I have a simple question about the <location> tag of the web.config file. For the moment, I want all the pages to be password protected and I've created a simple login page with the login object. I've put all my .aspx file in a directory called AppMyPages and I've put this in the config file:
