How to give absolute path, that working with virtual directory and localhost
/Image/Icon.jpg - it is working well with localhost
/Image/Icon.jpg - It is not working on Virtual directory
I want absolute path solution which is working on both virtual and localhost directory
i have jst been told to work on an ongoing project say www.xyz.com ... apparantly, for running the downloaded files on my local machine, i had to create a virtual directory say DIR ... now, the problem is that whatever files i downloded in DIR have gone one level down in the path specified in the code ... for eg. For accessing the local file for http://www.xyz.com/home.aspx , the url comes out to be http://localhost/DIR/home.aspx ... which is making me go to each and every page and modify all the respective links to point to files under directory DIR ... Is there any way that i can omit the virtual directory name from local url ??. or is there any way out of the problem .. BTW i m using Visual Web Developer 2008 .
View 3 RepliesI'm totally stuck. I've tried many ways. I have a webapplication deployed on Win2003 with IIS 6.0. The website needs to access:
D:data on another PC.
I've sucessfully created a virtual directory (using local credentials to the data PC) in IIS and I am fully able to browse and view all the files. So now the webserver is: WebserverData.
In my behind code, I call filestream f = (Server.MapPath("WebserverDatasomedata.txt")));
and it tells me access to that location: \webserverdatasomedata.txt is DENIED. BUT I am able to browse on the Win2k3 IIS server.
I've set impersonation to true and used local username and password of the data PC. I've configured IIS to use the same username password.
My basic question is, can a virtual directory in IIS point to a physical path that's not on the local machine? For instance, right now I have a virtual path /NaturalGasReport/NYMEX which points to physical path C:Program Files (x86)NymexSettleNATGAS_REPORTNYMEX, but I want it to point to a physical path on a difference PC on the same network. Is this possible? (I know I can just try it out so I apologize for asking but I thought it would be best to get an explanation along with "yes" or "no"). If you want more detail, this is what I need to do. To make a long story short, because of a vendor product we are using that won't run on a 64-bit operating system, I have to run a program called Generate_NGReportData.vbs (it's a vbscript program) on a PC I will call 28. It uses a vendor product which produces jpg files which are graphs of the Natural Gas market. The machine where I wish it could run is called RTEST01 but this machine runs a 64-bit OS and the components won't work there. RTEST01 has the databases. So, I created a datasource on 28 which points to RTEST01's database. The vbs program will read the data, generate the reports, and write one row to a database table on RTEST01. RTEST01 has to run the complimentary program which sends these reports (via email). 28 is not an email server so it can't email the reports. So on RTEST01 I will run Send_NaturalGasReport.vbs. This program creates an email body of html. The html references [URL]NaturalGasReport/NYMEX/" & Day(nymex_update_dt) & ".jpg which is a virtual directory pointing to C:Program Files (x86)NymexSettleNATGAS_REPORTNYMEX. I need it to point to the folder and files on 28.So if my initial question has a simple yes answer then I am all set. If not, examine my architecture and propose an alternative solution.
View 10 RepliesTo start with then we have a LinkButton whose text is actually an image tag. The image it links to is a Png and resides in a folder in the web directory. This is IIS V6 and win Server 2003.
The path is [URL]
Admin is a virtual directory configured in IIS.
The above url doesn't work but if you change it to [URL] (lowers case 'a') then the image is served, change it back to 'A' and it takes you to login, you log in and it loops back to log in. change to 'a' and voila the image is served. Weirdly this problem doesn't always occur and I have hunted for a resolution for days to no avail.
As requested this is the complete link button
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkCommitAll" runat="server" CausesValidation="false"><asp:Image ID="imgCommitAll" runat="server" ImageUrl="~/Images/Grid/confirm_16.png" AlternateText="Commit All Changes" /> Commit All</asp:LinkButton>

View 1 RepliesI have created a setup for my application which is having both website and desktop application. i m supposed to changes connection string in both the config files at runtime. i used following code :

I created a virtual directory in the Visual Web Developer, according to this post:
[URL]
I want the user to upload / download documents in the mvc app to that virtual directory. When a document is uploaded, I'm specifying the path to the document to be stored for later retrieval like so:
~/VirtualDirectoryName/FileContent.docx. But when I try to open that as a link in th app,using ResolveUrl, it appends the port number after localhost like so,[URL], I get a document not found, since it really should be, [URL].
I created a web setup project. When the users install it, the virtual directory gets created and all the files are created under "C:Inetpubwwwroot<myvirtualdirectory>".
How to customize the web setup project so that I can change the virtual directory physical path? I had followed the tutorial
[URL]
but it didn't work and my MSI stopped installing alltogether.
I have a http module at root level which resolves to the virtual directory which is a .net application on some conditions as below.
I need the have the httpmodule at root level only for some requirements.
application.Context.RewritePath("/virtualdirecotry/root/pages/sample/sample.aspx", String.Empty, "");
the sample.aspx page uses a master page as below
<%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Root/Pages/Master/Site.Master"
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 have an asp.net mvc 2 app (using .net 4.0) that isn't routing correctly when hosted in a virtual directory. I have the following simple routing rule:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{action}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "accounts" } // Parameter defaults
);
I'm trying to resolve [URL]. Where "accounts" is a virtual directory. If I put the app in the root of an IIS website it routes fine for [URL], but if I put the app in a virtual directory I get 404 errors. I've debugged and it is executing global.asax and configuring routing when in the vdir. Is there something special I need to do for routing in a virtual directory? FYI. I'm using a vdir because the root has wordpress in it. one more thing is that if I specify a default action in parameter defaults, it will execute the default action/controller, but it never matches anything else.
I have made a virtual directory in IIS 7.5 but still unable to catch the required path. I need to save uploaded files inside a folder which i created as virtual directory but still it is showing error like- "Could not find the path..
View 3 RepliesI have an ASP.NET web application(WebForms,Not MVC) developed in VS 2008 and i have implemented ASP.NET web forms URL routing by following this link [URL]It works pretty good when i run it on the Visual studion IDE.But does not works when i created a site under my IIS (IIS 5.1 in XP) and deployed the same files there.I have set ASP.NET version as 2.0 in the Properties window of my application too.But does not work.
View 1 Replieswhen I upgraded my root website from ASP.NET MVC 3 Preview 1 to the new Beta 1. I am using RavenDB, which needs to run as a virtual sub-application with Windows authentication instead of Forms authentication. I had raven working like described above just fine in preview 1, but with beta 1, now it won't work. It looks like no matter what I try, the membership provider system for my root website is redirecting me back to the login page, even though I've set my RavenDB virtual directory to use windows authentication and cleared out the membership and roles providers in it's web.config. I guess MS changed something to do with
either routing or authentication between preview 1 and beta 1. If anyone else sees this problem and knows how to fix it, I would be in your debt. I would guess that the easiest way to recreate the problem would be to create a new ASP.NET MVC 3 Beta 1 root website, then add a virtual directory marked as an application. See if you can get the root site to use the forms auth provided by default, but have the virtual directory use windows auth, denying all users but a specific one of your choosing. I can't seem to get this scenario working in the beta like I did in the preview.
In winserver-2008, IIS 7 and .net 3.5 (i have installed AjaxControlToolkit for framework 3.5 )when i create a virtual folder for this application on the server then Autocomplete Extender control is not returning any list nor any error message also.i dont understand how to debug because it is working fine in the localhost

When I write following code in my view
<% Url.Action("Logon") %>
the mvc framework generates
/Account/Logon ({controller}/{action})
as path.
'/Account/Logon' path is an absolute path. Is there a way to change is to a relative path, like Account/Logon or ../Account/Logon.
Also, when I use the Html.Beginform(), the mvc framework generates <form action="/account/logon"..., I want to change this to <form action="account/logon"...So, problem is that I want relative paths instead of absolute path.
I am trying to upload a file Into a MapPath but I am getting a error 'C:/WebSite/userimages/' is a physical path, but a virtual path was expected. My code is:

I have a string variable called pdfdestination which points to a file on another server. This string is "\\mars\IntranetUploads\pdf\testpdf1.pdf"; The following code doesn't work:

and the reason is that it won't just directly input that string into the address bar, but instead the path it tries to access begins at the root of my application. In other words, the resulting URL comes out like: [URL] I simply need the browser to directly access: \marsIntranetUploadspdf estpdf1.pdf
I have a class (.cs) in my web application project called CompanyResponseInfo.cs. This class inherits from a class called, ResponseInfo.cs, which is from a class library which is referenced as a compiled dll in the web application. CompanyResponseInfo is called from the ResponseInfo base class. In the CompanyResponseInfo class I need to build a file path to a file that resides in the directory 'web root/resources/standard.xslt'.
Now i know that because CompanyResponseInfo is instanciated from within the inherited ResponseInfo class from a referenced library, the 'System.Web.HttpContext.Current' object is null so I cannot gain access to MapPath and all the other Server object properties for me to obtain path properties relating to the web application.
I have also tried using 'System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment.MapPath' which did work locally, but when I put the web application on our test IIS server it never worked correctly as it seemed to use the path in which IIS resides.
I guess this would be a common problem, so what are my options in my case when I need to get the absolute web application path so I can use it to get the absolute path for a XSLT file so I can load it into the XslCompiledTransform.Load()?
I am trying to convert the virtual path to a physical path but don't seem to have Server.MapPath or HttpServerUtility.MapPath available in my handler. I add the System.Web namespace with no luck.
string virtualTargetFolder = String.Format("~/UserImages/{0}/Images/", user.ProviderUserKey.ToString());
string physicalTargetFolder = System.Web.HttpServerUtility.MapPath (virtualTargetFolder);
