I have a simple PowerShell script that uses WMI to create a web site on a Vista box. Yes, I know PowerShell has an IIS provider for working with IIS 7, but this script must also support IIS 6.0, so that rules that out. Anyway, the script was working just fine, but all of the sudden (and I mean that literally, I made zero code changes t...
Is it possible to mix all these access controls in one site? I have a requirement saying a) Users from the AD must be allowed access, using integrated security b) Users from some other AD must be allowed access; potentially by logging in c) Users not in the AD's should be able to create a new account on the site. Now, ofcourse, ...
I have, as best as I can manage, set up IIS (6.0), PHP (5.2.8) and MySQL (5.1.30) on Windows Server 2003, with all the involved mucking about (I think) in IIS and PHP to get things talking to each other. PHP does work - however, I cannot use the mysql or mysqli libraries from a PHP page. Fatal error: Class 'mysqli' not found in... Fata...
I need to serve up a few .asp pages from within my ASP.NET site. This ASP.NET site has a handler that allows us to serve up pages out of the database instead of finding them on disk (where the .asp files are located). The problem appears to be that the .NET isapi (C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_isapi.dll) is catchi...
I need to run 8-10 instances of my application on IIS 6.0 that are all identical but point to different backends (handled via config files, which would be different for each virtual directory). I want to create multiple virtual directories that point to different versions of the app and I want to know if there is any significant perform...
We have IIS6 running on a 64-bit Windows 2003 server with 32Gb physical RAM. Due to some older 32-bit dependencies within our .NET 3.5 ASP.NET application, we are currently forced to run our IIS worker process in 32-Bit wow64 mode which I understand gives us access to 4Gb of memory for our worker process. My question is if we use the We...
I normally would create a limited rights user and run the process under that but the fact that pools automatically created under IIS7 in 2008 use this account makes me think that this is perfectly safe, and possibly more so than something I create? The whole Secure By Default push from Redmond would lead me to believe this is the case. ...
I seem to have an app on my Dev server that has lots of open connections (they should be there, but some bad data layer was used to open them, that forgot to close them). I just want them closed so I can keep other apps running on the server. How can I force all the connections to close? ...
Hi everyone. I am looking to determine from a large code base, what files are actually being used over a period of time. I need to know about CFM pages and CFCs as well as any included CFM files etc. I know I can get some of this info using logging in application.cfm, or by using IIS, but I will still be missing any include files and...
Hi guys, I'm a developer who had handed to him the admin duties for our IIS server. I'm reasonably familiar with IIS in terms of setting up web sites, virtual directories, and such and such, but I figure if I'm going to be administrator the server entirely, I better get up to speed. Any recommendations for IIS books, especially for som...
Hi, if you browse the internet it's relatively easy to find code that modifies existing script maps (to switch between .NET versions, for example). However, the relatively obvious code to actually add or remove a script map doesn't seem to work. Has anyone succeeded in writing something that can add or delete a scriptmap in IIS 6? ...
I asked this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/313877/can-i-automate-creating-a-net-web-application-in-iis a little ago, and got solutions for IIS 6 and IIS 7: IIS6 : iisweb /create C:\Rome "My Vacations" /d www.reskit.com /dontstart IIS7 : %windir%\system32\inetsrv\AppCmd ADD SITE /name:MyNewSite /bindings:http/*:81: /physicalPath:c...
In perfmon in Windows Server 2003, there are counter objects to get per-process processor time and memory working set statistics. The only problem is that in an environment with multiple application pools, there is no way to reliably identify the correct worker process. In perfmon, they are all called "w3wp", and if there is more than on...
Any thoughts on why I might be getting tons of "hangs" when trying to download a file via HTTP, based on the following? Server is IIS 6 File being downloaded is a binary file, rather than a web page Several clients hang, including TrueUpdate and FlexNet web updating packages, as well as custom .NET app that just does basic HttpWebReque...
Hi All, Could anyone please help me with this. On the production site app_offline.htm works only till you start uploading dlls. As soon as you start uploading dlls it throws following error"Could not load file or assembly 'SubSonic' or one of its dependencies.

Setup is SQL2005 SP2 with Reporting Services installed local on Win2003 64bit. When users browse report manager on http://server/reports they get login dialog for every request, but only if they use IE7. In FireFox all works. The site is in "local intranet" zone on IE. It seems like it is a NTLM, I've tested reinstall, change permissio...
I say properly because everyone I have spoken to in the past said running Django on IIS was a hack. I had it working somewhat but it never did quite right and did feel like a hack. I like python but had to give it up because I could never make Django work with IIS and Django was my excuse to use Python in production web apps. But it w...
We have an e-commerce site that uses certificates from Thawte, we had our certficate renewed in October. If you access https-pages from IE6 you get a warning that the certificate has expired, if you look at the expiration date it's actually the old certificate. Now, this doesn't happen at all when accessing the page from IE7. This happe...
Hello, I wonder what the best approach is for a situation where I want to have the user type in http://myserver/something/20 and get redirected (301 or 302) to http://someotherserver/applications/something/modules/default.aspx?id=20 For .net 3.5 and IIS 7 I found some solutions, but unfortunately I am stuck with .net 3.0 and IIS 6....
Ok so I've spent a couple hours trying to resolve this issue and have had no leads so far, keep getting the same 404 error. What happens is the website picks up the Default.aspx page and displays it like it should. But the Home page has a clickable image where it routes to another view page. The image code is like so: <a href="<%= Url.A...
