VS 2010 - Homepage Won't Load Unless Specifically Type Filename Into Root Of Website
Oct 11, 2012
I'm not sure what I did to cause this but my website homepage won't load unless I specifically type the filename into the root of the website - i.e. URL....works but URL... doesn't. It could be something I changed in the web.config or the project properties.
I am doing some work with Web.Routing, using it to have friendly urls and nice Rest like interfaces to a site that is essentially rendered by a single IHttpHandler. There are no webforms, the handler generates all the html/json and writes it as part of process request.
This works well for things like /Sites/Accounting for example, but I can't get it to work for the site root, i.e. '/'.
I have tried registering a route with an empty string, with 'default.aspx' (which is the empty aspx file I keep in my root folder to play nice with cassini and iis). I set RouteExistingFiles to false explicitly, but whatever I do when hitting the root url it still opens default.axpx, which has no code it inherits from, and contains a simple h1 tag to show that I've hit it.
I don't want to change the default file to redirect to a desired route, I just want the equivalent of a 'default' route that is applied when no other routes are found, similar to MVC.
For reference, the previous version of the site didn't use Web.Routing, but had a handler referenced in the web.config that was perfectly capable of intercepting requests for the root or default.aspx.
Specs: ASP.NET 3.5sp1, C#, no webforms, MVC or openrasta. Plain old IHttpHandlers.
I ran into the following issue when trying to run a test website on IIS 7.5 (Windows Server 2008 R2 DatacenterEdition). The web-app is configured to run with framework version 3.5 in a .Net 2.0 app pool. Also the framework 4.0 beta 2 is installed on the server. The application named 'TestPfade' is located under the website's root named 'Default'. It is not only a virtual directory but defined as an application. The folder structure looks like this: The markup of the sole document reads as follows:
[Code]....
When viewed in a browser the image gets shown because the given relative path is correctly resolved to 'images/Lighthouse.jpg' but the paths to the ajax-framework resources also include the application's root folder and therefor aren't found: 'src="/TestPfade/WebResource.axd?d=1bX...' Here is the complete html-source generated:
I am developing a C# VS 2008 / SQL Server 2008 website. Although this same code compiles in the Project version, the website version does not compile. Many of their files are the same so I do not understand even where to look. The only compile error I get is:
Could not load type 'DataMatch'
in my DataMatch.aspx file. Is the problem in my web.config file? How do websites differ from projects in VS? All four of these files reside in same directory.
So I created a website in visual studio 2010 and I transfer it to my web host.
The problem is the webhost has the a file structure like this:
[URL]
And I put all my files in wwwroot, and it works fine on the web.
But now in VS, since I had to add [URL] folders, I am getting compile errors that say "This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS".
So my question is - how do I either A) change the root application for IIS on my machine to be at the wwwroot levelB) change VS to let me copy files from the root directory in VS to the [URL] dirctory.

I have an ASP.net Website. the project' content is in a folder called MyWebSite. When I run my application from Visual Web developer 2008, the browser displays the following address in the address bar: http: // localhost/ MyWebSite /Default.aspx
I want to be able to run my Website from the following address:
We are having an issue where the same set of files behave differently depending on if it is a root IIS website versus an application under an IIS website. The urls produced using ResolveUrl() are different - i.e.:
As the root website, it produces: http://contact.aspx
As an application under a website, it produces: http://domainname.org/DSC/contact.aspx
Both are utilizing the same files. The first example is its own website, the second is a virtual directory made into an application (titled DSC). Both also use the same application pool, and same configuration, document and security settings (I made sure all the settings were the same in IIS between both).
Everything that has been researched indicates ResolveUrl() does refer to the IIS application that the webpage is under. I have also read several places that even if the information isnt completed in IIS (in this case it is), a root website is considered an application. Therefore, it should produce the appropriate web address, but isnt.
I am trying to select all the files from a folder in my website and store them in a collection. The problem is that when I run the website it is not selecting the folder in my website:
This is the basic structure: [Root Folder] --> [FilesFolder]
Here is the code I am using:
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo("FilesFolder");
But it is showing this at runtime as the location of the folder:
I have an ASP.NET application running on Apache server with mod_mono. If I have a folder called "temp" located in the website's root directory and run the following code
System.IO.TextWriter tw = new System.IO.StreamWriter("temp/test.txt"); tw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now); tw.Close();
it saves test.txt in C:Program FilesMono-2.6.4in emp on the server. If I add a slash to the directory name like this: System.IO.TextWriter tw = new System.IO.StreamWriter("/temp/test.txt"); It saves it to C:/temp. Both do not do what I want. How do I get the code to save the file to the temp folder inside my website's root directory? Is this a mod_mono issue or something to do with Apache? I have tried adding this line to httpd.conf Alias /temp "C:/Path_to_root_folder/temp" without any luck. I shouldn't have to use alias if the temp folder is within the root directory, correct? In my development environment which uses XSP as the web server everything works as expected. It is only a problem when running on Apache.
I have a flash banner in my website and it has some navigation links on it. Because I have several different folders in my website I need address them from the root. At the moment i use getUrl like this: getURL("ArticleList/Default.aspx"); But it doesn't work .
I have subdomain "s1" which points to "a" folder. I want to know how could I access to files stored in "b" folder form subdomain "s1". My issue is that files I have some html content which saved in DB Records and their path are base on webroot i.e. "<img src="/b/movie1.avi" /> .Could any one tell me how I could show these files via subdomain "s1"
Is it possible to control the behaviour of ASP.NET when the Session has expired? It seems that the default behaviour is sending the user to the website root. The desired effect would be to send the user to a custom "Session Expired" page.To clarify, it's the SessionState that's expiring (set the timeout to 1 minute to quickly test it):
I am using iis 5.1 in which we have only only one default website, I have two projects v2 and v3 my website points to v2 projects and have some folders images, styles etc now i have a virtual directory under this website that is hosting project v3 and having the same folder hierarchy as v2 in the home page of the both projects i have img src="imagesedlogo.gif" alt="logo"/> but this shows the same image that is in the v2 directory, How can i show different images for both projects. using "" get the root of the web site but how can i get the root of virtual directory under that website
How can you request the root default.aspx without specifying it in the url for your root application?e.g. ttp://localhost/MyApp/ instead of http://localhost/MyApp/Default.aspxshould be able to do bothI'm not sure if this is a setting in IIS 7.5 for the application or what.
