I have a virtual directory (configured as an application). It will accept requests for all files that exist, but it will not call handlers (system.web/httpHandlers).
<httpHandlers>
<remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/>
<add verb="*" path="*.asmx" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory,

I've recently taken an existing ASP.NET 3.5 web forms application that was upgraded to .NET 4 last year (and has been running fine) and configured it to also run ASP.NET MVC3 following Scott Hanselman's blog post: Integrating ASP.NET MVC 3 into existing upgraded ASP.NET 4 Web Forms applications. It works well and I've successfully begun to introduce views based on Razor and the existing aspx pages continue to work.
The one thing that has stopped working, however, is a custom HttpHandler (our load balancer hits a specific address to ensure the application is available - the handler is for that address). The web.config has always declared the handler in the system.web section like this:
<httpHandlers>
<add verb="*" path="system/heartbeat.aspx"
type="My.Monitor.HttpHandlers.LoadBalancerHandler, My.Monitor"/>
</httpHandlers>
Now we're testing post-MVC3 and I'm getting an exception that reads:
The controller for path '/system/heartbeat.aspx' was not found or does not implement IController. I have defined a RegisterRoutes method in my Global.asax and that method is called from the Application_Start. Within RegisterRoutes I've got the IgnoreRoute declarations from Hanselman's blog:
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.aspx/{*pathInfo}");
which I thought was to prevent the Routing system from taking anything with an extension of .aspx. I can reproduce the issue in VS2010 as I debug, and the deployment environment is running IIS 6. What can I do to prevent the Routing system from trying to handle that address so the custom handler can do it's thing?
I'm trying to get custom HttpHandler working in my sample web application. I've been experiencing a lot of issues, but finally got stuck with error 500. Application pool is being run in Classic ASP.NET 2.0 mode. Server is IIS 7.5, OS is Win 7 Pro.
Here's a code of my handler:
[Code]....
I have added two handlers in Web config under the System.Server for work to IIS7, but i got this error
<system.webServer>
<validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />
<staticContent>
<clientCache httpExpires="Sun, 29 Mar 2020 00:00:00 GMT" cacheControlMode="UseExpires" />
[Code]....
Error:
500 - Internal server error. There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.
i have a couple of xml files in my asp.net web application that i don't want anyone to access other than my server side code. this is what i tried..
<add verb="*" path="*.xml" type="System.Web.HttpForbiddenHandler" />
i wrote this inside the <httpHandlers>
it works well on the localhost but not in the server... the server without any hesitation displays the xml file... i have no idea how to proceed...
Update: the server has IIS6, windows server 2003
I need to dynamically instantiate a web application from a console application. By this definition, I mean that my console application contains a web application that is not bound to IIS/XSP.Currently, I create the web application into a temporary directory and copy some forged files into it. These are a special Global.asax that maps to my own implementation of HttpApplication to use in the web application (I need to do some initialization at app start), then I forge special .asmx files that map to my own skeleton classes and dynamic plugins
foreach (IPlugin plugin in _target.Plugins)
{
WsdlSkeletonDefinition[] defs = plugin.GetWsdlSkeletons();
My approach works, but I'm not so satisfied by it because I have to write lots of garbage into file system, even if I eventually delete it all.I know I can control HTTP handlers via Web.config, but I don't want to forge a Web.config for that. I would like to create a mapping such as I can remove the .asmx extension from web services' URLs and still get them.For example, one of the default scripts is "LogbusManagement.asmx", which must be hard-coded into client APIs and the .asmx prevents portability to other platforms such as PHP. I want to make "LogbusManagement.asmx" equivalent to "LogbusManagement" and any extension. For this, I might use an HttpHandlerFactory.
My straight question is,like asked here by somebody else: is there a way to programmatically, possibly from Global.asax, to set IHttpHandlers or IHttpHandlerFactories for web applications?
Im using a httphandler to response another pdf file in case requested file not found. Its working fine in local development pc but not working in web server. Mapped .pdf as wild card mapping too but no result yet. Still i'm getting the 404 error.
View 1 RepliesI have an HttpHandler which takes care of 404 errors, which I implemented years ago as a way of doing url routing. If the request maps to a valid page, it redirects to that page. Otherwise, it returns a 404. (I know I should start using the new routing feature of asp.net 4.0, but that will take some time. I need to get this working asap.)
In IIS6, I have mapped the 404 error to "/404.ashx". In the web.config, custom errors are set up like so:
<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="error.aspx">
<error statusCode="404" redirect="/404.ashx"/>
</customErrors>
and the http handler:
<httpHandlers>
<add verb="GET" path="404.ashx" type="myNamespace.PageNotFoundHandler,myAssemblyName"/>
</httpHandlers>
This has been working for years - it stopped working as soon as I changed the site to use asp.net 4.0. Everything was recompiled for 4.0, and there were no code changes.
Now, when I hit one of these urls that used to work, I get a blank page with a 404 error code. If I remove the IIS 404 error mapping, I get a regular old 404 page. It seems that the httphandler is not being called.
I have other http handler which are working fine. I figure there must be some configuration setting I missed or something like that. Naturally, this is a problem only on my production server, so I can't run it in the debugger to see what is happening.
Providing web features through a custom HttpHandler such as in Elmah is extremely handy for ASP.NET Web Applications, because the handler can be embedded into any ASP.NET web app. It perfectly fits as a simple way to extend an existing web app. Now, developing any significant set of features through a custom handler is a very tedious process. I am wondering if it is possible to directly embed an ASP.NET Application into another one through a custom handler (as opposed to cut and pasting the whole app in a sub directory). Here is a small list of embedded web app that would be fit for such a purpose:
Health monitoring console. Provisioning console (for cloud web app with auto-scaling). App settings management console (considering a scheme IoC-settings-stored-in-DB). Each one of those web parts could be provided as an HttpHandler; but again implementation is really tedious. Does anyone know how to do that or how to achieve an equivalent behavior?
I developed a .Net 3.5 x64 web application that includes a custom HttpHandler in the config:
<add path="*.class1" verb="GET" type="ClassLibrary1.Class1Handler"/>
This works when the platform target for ClassLibrary1 is set at x86.
However, when I set this to x64 I get the following error when I run web application starts (it compiles just fine): Configuration Error Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately. Parser Error Message: Could not load file or assembly 'ClassLibrary1, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
Does this mean that a HttpHandler can be compiled at x86 only?That doesn't make much sense to me.Does anyone have an idea of what could be going on?Edit 1:The ClassLibrary1 project is just an empty class library project with a single HttpHandler added (which is also empty).Edit 2:I am also getting these warning messages when compiling, I am pretty sure they have something to do with this problem: Assembly generation -- Referenced assembly 'mscorlib.dll' targets a different processor HttpTestEdit 3:I manually edited the project file to force references to the x64 assemblies, like this:
<Reference Include="$(Windir)Microsoft.NETFramework64v2.0.50727System.dll"/>
This does supress the above warning message, but the problem isn't resolved.
I have created a handler in IIS7 on a Sample Web site and it works fine .That is i go to the InetMgr Open the Handler Mappings section create a new handler etc. It works fine .
Now i want the create the same handler on an web application which runs on an IIS6 and am unable access my handler . I have tried adding this under the httpHandlers section
<add verb="*" path="SampleHandler.discb"
type="Sample.Web.SampleHandler, Sample.Web" />
Im working on an IIS6 Asp.Net web application but on development server i have IIS7 installed. Nothing works . Am i missing out anything ?
Well this is the message i get when i open the Handler Mappings section
The applicattion is in an application pool that is running in classic mode , so you can manage ISAPI extensions and native modules that are mapped to paths . you must manage managed handlers (system.web/httpHandlers) directly in the configuration file.
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.

I have a CMS application that manages multiple websites, today whenever i change the codebehind of one of these websites - i have to rebuild the dll for all websites, deploy it - this disconnects all current sessions and is really bad.
The iis is configured to listen to all domain requests, if the request is to one of the websites' domain , the application rewrites it, or example, if someone requests for http://www.example.com, and example.com is configured in the application to be website 12, it is rewritten to http://www.example.com/websites/12/default.aspx.
This is done for all websites.
We want to seperate the dlls of the websites from each other, and from the main CMS, we have a virtual directory to each websites, but when trying to rewrite to it, we discover that IIS support this (we get an "Could not load type '_12._Default'". error).
How can we perform this rewrite so it does rewrite to virtual directories, or if anyone has any other solution for the initial dll seperation problem.

I am trying to deploy an asp.net MVC and a WCF service in a single website. The root site is the MVC application and i am going to run the WCF as a virtual directory of the site. However the service cant be accessed since the routing of the MVC would not relay the request to the service. It would say "Page not Found".
http://PC:9000 <- root of mvc application
I have a virtual directory for the wcf named "wcf",
http://pc:9000/wcf/service.svc <- should have accessed the service but routes of the mvc intervened and will display page not found.
how to make this work? How would i ignore the routing if the call is for the service?
I have a team currently working on a Web Application project, we want to be able to run the project through our local IIS web servers and let each dev map it to whatever virtual directory they like.Currently every time we check in we are stomping on each others virtual dir settings in th cs proj file.I know we could just agree on a virtual directory and stick with it but that does not solve another problem I am having with this where I actually keep multiple copies of the repository on my machine and want to be able to map each to a separate virtual directory.
So the result we are looking for would look like this:Dev1 has a checkout at say c:/dev/Webapp mapped to a virtual dir on their local IIS say localhost/WebAppThen Dev 2 has a checkout at say c:/workspace1/WebApp mapped to a virtual dir say localhost/workspace1/MyWebAppAND Dev 2 has a checkout at say c:/workspace2/WebApp mapped to a virtual dir say localhost/workspace2/WebAppPS. The reason Dev 2 has two checkout is because he uses on for active dev work and the other for merging between branches.
I ahev seen many discussion related to this , but I could not find proper answer , I have live web site set up on IIS 6, and set virtual path MYSite and then phisical path to the web.config file on actual location.
I have copy this site to another server for the purpose of further development, so I need to run production site exactly same as live site , i can do edit in production and update pages to live.
Once I have copied the site give this error virtual path '/includes/menu.htm' maps to another application, which is not allowed
i have master page include menu as html files <!--#include file="../includes/topmenu.htm"-->
I have open site in IIS 7 and add virtual directory and gave a name (not same as live) and choose physical path to the root folder of the site. In IIS 7 I cannot give web.config file for the path, it should be folder. and I have change identity in apppool to Network Service and gave readaccess permission to folder.
how to convert virtual directory in the application in xp????
