I know this has been asked before but the answer given was a temporary hack. We have had a site running on our live servers for some time now and we have just made some updates and deployed. Intitally the JIT runs and the site works. When the application pool is next refreshed we are receiving the following error from the webserver (I...
I have a web service that stores data in a local SQL Server 2008 database. If I run the web service under my account the web service can successfully access the database. However, if I use the DefaultAppPool (IUSR) account then accessing the database from the web service fails. How do I set security on SQL Server to allow access to a s...
Exactly as per the title. Simply in my HomeController I have: string Username = User.Identity.Name; Why is this value always blank? Is there something special I have to place in the web.config to get this value to come through. I've tried on both the VS dev web server as well as on a windows server 2003 IIS server. It's got to be s...

I'm using IIS 6 on Windows Server 2003. The vision is to create a directory of those applications, showing their urls (ports on Server) and names. ...
I have an application server installed, listening for HTTP traffic on a port which is not blocked from the world by a firewall. I wish to expose the services offered by this application only through HTTPS, preferably as a "sub directory" of the HTTPS site already hosted by the server. Using IIS7 Url Rewriting (as part of the ARR package...
I'm writing a flex application that polls an xml file on the server to check for updated data every few seconds, and I'm having trouble preventing it from caching the data and failing to respond to it being updated. I've attempted to set headers using the IIS control panel to use the following, without any luck: CacheControl: no-cache...
I ask because I had heard that Microsoft may have implemented an optimized kernel level driver for handling HTTP traffic that then ushers it off to various worker processes through IPC and non socket mechanism. Is this true and if so is there any information on how this works. I'm asking in general for IIS6 and IIS7. ...
We are starting to write more and more code for an ASP.Net web application uses a new thread to complete long running tasks. I can find no solid documentation that give any useful guide to any limitations of restrictions of using threads within IIS (6). Any advice to this end would be appreciated - specifically the following: What (i...
I have always enabled integrated security on my web apps inside IIS with the assumption that the passwords that are requested on the client end will always be transmitted securely (encrypted) to my authentication server (AD/LSA). Am I correct on my assumption? The reason I have always assumed this is 'coz I always think of them as being ...
I have a .NET 2.0 website that is periodically losing the value for the DateTimeFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.AMDesignator (or PMDesignator) property. This causes code such as Now.ToString() or even Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm tt") to not properly display the AM/PM designation which then causes date validation to fail. This issue happens sp...
Guys, I've came across this problem I can't resolve myselg, I'm pretty sure I miss something pretty obvious, but that's usually how it is. I'm developing my asp.net webapp in VS2008, XP SP3. When I want to debug, the asp.net starts the development server and the default browser associated with the vs2008 opens up and loads the page. In...

I need to limit access of an .asmx web service to specific IP addresses. I figure I could add a hardcoded check into each method, but that seems like a code maintenance nightmare. Is there a web configuration entry I can make, or a IIS 6 setting I can apply to the .asmx file? ...
Apparently I did something to break my iis configuration - now every time I hit a modified aspx file, it makes a file like ve-9D04.tmp in the same folder with the same source. Presumably the compiler is doing this, but I can't figure out what changed to cause this. How do I get asp.net's compiler to stop generating these .tmp files al...
This is a really strange issue. The host header value of myapplication.mywebsite.com works fine within the internal network. But when people from outside the network try accessing it, it routes people to the default web application in IIS. An A ref was definately made, and external pinging does show it is going to the right IP addresss. ...
I have a brand new WCF client (I added a service reference through VS2008) which calls an older ASP.NET service app. The ASP.NET app is hosted in IIS 6 on Windows Server 2003 and allows Windows Authentication and Basic Authentication (configured on the virtual directory for the web site). One of the places I'm deploying my client to is ...

I am developing an application on my win XP box. I use visual web dev to run the app interactively but I have also set it up on IIS for testing from another machine on my network. This all worked perfectly until... Microsoft had a high priority update in the form of IE8 and after the update failed to reboot. After a silly amount to t...
After a fresh install of WSS 3.0 and creation of a new web application and site collection, I receive the following error when I navigate to the newly create site: [COMException (0x80070005): Access is denied. ] System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Bind(Boolean throwIfFail) +557 System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Bind() +4...
