I have a config file linked from web.config e.g.<features configSource="feature.config" />When I make changes to the "feature.config" file the IIS application appears to restart, is this expected behaviour?
View 1 RepliesWe are working on a web application that creates more web applications.Each web application will have to get a Url Rewrite rule (URL REWRITE MODULE 2.0).As far as I know, there's no way to add such rules without modifying the web.config file (am I right??).So my plan was to work with multiple web.config partial files. One main .config file, and lots of .config files per application (every file will contain it's web application url rewrite rules).This way sounds a little bit messy, but I can't think of anything else, and suggestions will be welcomed.
View 1 RepliesI currently have 2 x ASP.NET 3.5 web applications in IIS7 (lets call them WebParent and WebChild).WebChild is nested within the WebParent listing in IIS7 and is set up as an application (rather than just a virtual directory within WebParent). Both currently use their own (Classic) application pool.Both WebParent and WebChild have their own fully defined web.config files in their own root directories.
View 3 RepliesMy webserver stop working. It gives time out error. There is nothing in the event viewer.
If I access the web app on the web server using [URL], it works fine. Also the html pages have no problem. Just the asp.net web applications.
I need to make the connection string in my vb.net web application be passed into the app externally. This is so I can re-driect the app to use either a test or production database. The same idea as a .INI file in a windows base system. someone suggested to me I use XML but I dont know how to do that.

View 10 RepliesI know that whenever you add/remove/modify any file in the "App_Code", "App_GlobalResources", and "bin" directories that ASP.NET will recompile and essentially restart the application.My question is : "What happens to any threads currently executing durring the change?"Do they finish? Is a Thread.Abort Exception thrown?What happens if the application itself makes a change in any of those directories?

View 6 RepliesI just released a new version of my web application on ASP.NET V4.0 (on IIS 7 Win2008 R2) For some reason, the application Restarts at (almost) every request. I cannot figure out what configuration (although I didn't change it) or code error may cause this problem. Mind this happens on a hosted server - so I have a somewhat limited ability to debug it.
View 4 RepliesWe developed an application to edit the web.config settings. The user has to locate the web.config file which they like to edit. Once their task is completed they can download the web.config file with the changes made by them. Since the web.config file has the database server information and passwords I have a concern that will it cause any security problem.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to use the following command:
Dim xmlFilePath As String = _
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("XmlFilePath")
to retrieve the following setting:
<applicationSettings>
<MySolution.WebProject.My.MySettings>
<setting name="XmlFilePath" serializeAs="String">
<value>C:ASP.NETFolderMessageLog</value>
</setting>
</MySolution.WebProject.My.MySettings>
</applicationSettings>
However, xmlFilePath shows up as Nothing after that line of code is run. What's the correct code to get a setting out of the web.config file in an ASP.NET application?
NOTE: Although you can add keys individually to the <appsettings> tag, I'm trying to figure out how to use it with the "Settings" tab in the project's properties.
I want to create a generic web.config file for different web servers in VB.NET. So, depending on the server configuration requirements, applications can retrieve all values from that generic configuration file.
Is this possible? How would I do this?
I got this error in a project I did a while back. I think this was a web site project that i converted to a web app project. This was a while ago. This is an app I'm trying to run on my local machine. I'm not using IIS.
Does anyone know what this means?
Error 2
It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.

I am trying to read a normal string from the web.config file. When I try to read a string from the web.config file the application doesnt seem to read it. I set my sqlconnection string in the web.config file. It reads a sqlconnection string but not a normal string.Here is my code:
web.config file:
<applicationSettings>
<MyApplication.Settings>
<setting name="Colour" serializeAs="String">
<value> "Red"</value>

I have a file delete option for the files uploaded by the user, user can upload many files at a time.The uploaded files will be stored in a folder in server and when its is deleted its is moved to trash folder from where it will be manually cleared.
when a user tries to delete many files in the web page IIS get hangs and all session is expired. This case only present in server,in local host this issue is not available.
ALL the operations is carried out completely ie
Database gets updated. Files is moved from upload folder to trash folder in server.
I cannot determine what is going wrong,I just tried to delete many files totally around 35-36 MB. Is the issue with process taking long or is there any changes have to be made in order to perform large files operation, my project is done on VS2005 which is running in 2008 server.
I need to get the mime types in an IIS7 environment. They should be in:
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<staticContent>
<mimeMap...
As I understand it, in IIS7 if I can get to it I should see both custom additions in my web.config as well as the mime types defined in the IIS manager at the machine level.
I don't understand how to get to this data. I have messed with the configurationmanager but I am not getting anywhere. I can get a section names system.webServer but I don't see any of the actual data as colleciton of properties or as xml.
I am trying to port an existing ASP.Net 1.1 website to another web server that currently runs IIS7 and a number of websites that target either .Net 2.0, 3.5 or 4.0.

View 1 RepliesI am using a project that rewrites URL. I am not familiar with this code, but it works fine on IIS 6 and with VS2010. Problem begins when I need to deploy into IIS7.5 server. Seems like the rewrite doesn't work and the page doesn't fount after rewriting page.

I am trying to secure an application in IIS7 using .NET Authorization Rules.
By default, the web server allows all users access (which is inherited).
I have added, just for this one application directory, a deny all users command, as well as an allow command for specific users.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="myusername" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>
I have Windows Authentication enabled, and I can verify that without the line that my REMOTE_USER is MYDOMAINmyusername.
However, when I try to deny all users, I am prompted with the typical Windows domain username/password box. If I enter the username password, the prompt comes back up again 3 times until finally presenting me with a failure message. (I have also tried to no avail)
Looking in the event viewer, it appears as if my login using the username and pw is successful in the audit ... and to further that point, my account is not being locked out (which it would if I were failing to login over and over). So it's as if I am logging in, but the configuration is not seeing what I entered as matching my login.
Below is the message I see (even when connecting from the server using localhost):
**Access is denied.
Description: An error occurred while accessing the resources required to serve this request. The server may not be configured for access to the requested URL.
Error message 401.2.: Unauthorized: Logon failed due to server configuration. Verify that you have permission to view this directory or page based on the credentials you supplied and the authentication methods enabled on the Web server. Contact the Web server's administrator for additional assistance.**
I have a web.config file which is quite large in my current solution running on IIS7.
It's working perfect on my dev server however I encounter the error 0x80070032 "Config Error Cannot read configuration file because it exceeds the maximum file size"
My current solution uses a very large web.config file. The architecture of my CMS application requires a large number of configuration settings.
Is there some way to extend this size limit or can I split the web.config file down into smaller files?
I'm preparing to deploy a ASP.NET web application. The target server has already a previous version of my web application with parameters specified on the web.config file.
In the new version of this web application, the web.config file contains new sections I would like they appear into the target web.config file on the server.
However I can't find the way to merge the new web.config sections into the existing web.config file ?
Does I have to do it programmatically, or is there a tool to merge the both files during installation ? (I'm using Web Setup Project).
I'm getting the typical "Parser Error - the file '/virtualdir/Shared/Controls/filename.ascx.cs' does not exist..." error message on an @Register directive statement in one of my .master page files that references the same file. Note, this is working just fine on my old PC, where I have the same solution running on a Windows XP SP3, IIS 5.1 machine, developed with VS 2008 Team System. I'm now trying to set up my development environment on a new PC, running Windows 7, IIS 7, VS 2008 Team System.
The thing is this, and probably where I think I need help, the specific file it's saying has an error is a file that I added in one project (which was developed using VB.NET) as a linked file from another project (which was developed using C#) in the old PC. The solution in the new PC builds fine and runs fine (home page comes up, login works, brings up next page) until it tries to access a page that uses a master file that references the user control added as a linked file on my old PC. Note, the project and file that the linked file references has been added and exists on the new PC in the very same directory structure as the old PC.
We had some content restructure recently and I'd like to put in some redirect rules into web.config so bookmarks to the old pages can get routed to their new locations/pages.I tried using this approach:
<location path="~/product/productA.aspx">
<system.webServer>
<httpRedirect enabled="true" destination="~/product/category/productA.aspx" exactDestination="false" childOnly="true" httpResponseStatus="Permanent" />
</system.webServer>
</location>
But all I'm getting when I go to "[URL] is our http 404 page.Am I doing something wrong, or is the httpRedirect tag in web.config not supported in mono?
I'm simply adding to a set of rules on existing rewrite rules for our company website. We have a file that we need to restrict to only our internal IP addresses. The URL is http://oursite.com/internal/index.aspx?u=blahblah and need it restricted to IP ranges 10.1.X.X. I'm adding this and it's not doing anything. Even if I tried to capture all using .* for the pattern, it still ignores it. Is my syntax correct?
<rewrite>
<rules>
...
<rule name="Restrict URL" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">

In IIS7 I don't find any possibility to keep a website from responding to it's IP address as soon there is SSL set up for this website. I did not add the IP address as hostname for this website and so would expect that the site does only respond to it's given hostname(s). Unfortunately the website won't work if requested via it's IP address, so I have to disable IP address as hostname somehow.
Another issue is that IIS 7 does not display the "secure connection obligatory" error page anymore if secure connection is mandatory for a website. Is there any way to get this error page being displayed, just like it was in IIS6 ?
