I have an web app in IIS 7.5 with its own AppPool using .net 4. I want to use the feature of having anonymous access as the app pool identity - which is easily configured in a GUI via the inetmgr snapin. Is there any way do this programmatically, for instance through web.config? I've looked around and it appears that the anonymousAuth...
I am involved in testing an ASP.NET MVC site that uses a WF service hosted as a separate site on the same IIS server. We currently use Log4Net to assist with diagnostics in Stage and Production, so sysadmins are regularly setting the logging levels from WARN to DEBUG and back again for brief periods in order to capture logs. I've notic...

Hello, I am faced with this strange problem: In an .net web application, there is some code equivalent to this: if (Directory.Exists("config")) { ... } It basically checks to see if C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config directory exists, why the code is written like this is beyond me and this question. What confuses me is the above co...
I need to update the handler mappings on IIS 7.5 to allow URLs that don't have extensions to be routed to an application. The application was originally written in ASP.NET 2.0, but then later upgraded to ASP.NET 3.5. I don't know if that has relevance, but I've had no problem updating handler mappings for other .net 3.5 apps before. I sh...
I'm having trouble with an app that runs on IIS 6, but not IIS 7.5 (as outlined in this question: IIS 7.5 Can't open Handler Mappings?) I think it might solve the problem if I could run IIS 6 on my machine as well as 7.5. Can this be done? Will it cause any problems if I do this? ...

Hi guys, I have a Windows server 2008 R2 with IIS 7. By default when you create a site in IIS, Compression is enabled. I checked the Compression module and both Checkboxes are checked. Now, I am using fiddler to check if pages are being compressed but it seems they are not as the No Compression is selected and the page size is over 10...

Hello - I recently moved my development to a Windows 7 machine, and am having all sorts of trouble getting basic things to work. I have a pretty run-of-the-mill Web Forms app that is in .Net 3.5. It is developed in VS 2008. Having moved it to my new dev machine, I can't get the site to serve up any images (that are in an images/ folder)...

The error that I keep getting is "User cannot log in, home directory inaccessible." This happens when I: Open up a Windows command prompt. Type ftp localhos...

In the markup it also says "The requested page cannot be accecssed bec...

I looked around and can only find how to switch the appPools to 32 or 64. But the question I want answered is can you have one appPool 32bit and another 64bit? ...
