What good tools can I use to monitor IIS. What is included seems to be not as useful as I'd like. I realize I can add performance counters; those don't tell me very much; it's just a collections of properties that are plugged into a generic graphing tool. I have problems with old legacy applications hanging and various and sundry other ...
I have a requirement for an explicit logout button for users in a ASP.NET web app. I am using IIS6 with Basic Authentication (SSL). I can redirect to another web page but the browser keeps the session alive. I have googled around and found a way to do it by enabling an active x control to communicate with IIS and kill the session. I am i...
I'm in the process of writing a small web app that would allow me to manage several IIS installations on different servers on our network. We have no domain controller. I have written a small impersonation controller that uses the win32 api and its LogonUser method. I then use System.DirectoryServices and the IIS ADSI provider to create...
I'm working on IIS6, ASP.NET, VS2008. The web site uses a custom error handler to catch 404 errors and serve an alternate page. When presented with an url of the form: http://srv/crimson/articles/index Everything works perfectly. But an url of the form: http://srv/crimson/blog.aspx Where blog.aspx does not exist, fails with the follo...
I have deployed an app to an IIS6 server. For now, I'm using the wildcard mapping. My app works perfectly fine on my development machine, but when I try to access it on the server, some pages work and some don't. It is the scripts & images that are giving me the biggest problem. I have a url http://localhost/sdev/home/index and the p...
Hi, When I change the ASP.Net version of a web application in IIS 6 from ASP.Net 1.1 to 2.0. ALL sites in IIS are becoming "unavailable" (Service Unavailable) for a brief moment (the time it takes to apply the changes in the IIS dialog). I checked with Application Pools, but the sites are all in different application pools... How can ...
I have installed .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and ASP.NET MVC CTP in a Windows Server 2003 R2 box, but my ASP.NET MVC site still doesn't work on that server. I was searching the internet and IIS for a solution and I noted that I can't choose other .NET Framework version besides 2.0 for my virtual directories. I'm almost sure if I correct this ...
I am looking to move an existing WordPress installation to a custom platform comprised of a .net based blog as well as other new functionality/modules on the site running under IIS6/Win2k3. There are several thousand posts in the existing WordPress site that have been migrated to the new database structure, however, I'd like to preserve...
In IIS6 it's possible to have more than one ASP.NET application running in the same application pool. This is fine, except that there is nothing in IIS6 that prevents you from running multiple .NET versions in the same pool. When you create application pools in IIS7 you must explicitly state was .NET version will be running in that p...
We have an ASP.NET application and I need to add a custom HTTP header to IIS for all the developers on the team, so I want to add a command in the NANT script that will add the HTTP Header when the build script is run. Is it even possible to do this from the command line. I've been looking up the documentation on cscript adsutil.vbs ...
I would like to add some HTML to every page that our IIS 6 server serves. It's serving static HTML for the most part. Is this something IIS or an extension can do? I would need some control over how and where the HTML is injected, in this case before the tag. Thanks for your suggestions! ...
I'm trying to replace a old homebrewed single threaded web server with a ASP.NET solution that will run on IIS. The old server does alot of weird stuff like access files outside it's path, do com calls, write to c: and much more. It does all of this from library writen in C++. In the new application we want to use the same library so we...
I'm having a problem with an IIS6 301 redirect. I've set up the following redirect for the domain domain.com to go to www.domain.com$S$Q (under Home Direcotry in Site Properties). If I navigate to domain.com I get redirected to www.domain.com with no problems. But if I go to domain.com/dir I get redirected to www.domain.com/dir/dir ...
I am having trouble getting remote clients to connect successfully to an IIS WebDav site that is configured to use NTLM authentication. I have configured access to the WebDav folder to allow certain Windows accounts access, and configured the IIS vDir to require Windows authentication. Unfortunately I have no control over the client ...
I'm running a website on IIS 6 (Windows Server 2003) that hangs occasionally. Timeline: Released to the wild, website ran fine for 3 days. Website hangs on every request until the website is stopped and started. Website runs for 2 weeks with no problem. Website hangs on every request until site is restarte...
I'm trying to get .asp pages working on Windows Internet Information Server 6.0 on Win XP Pro (I originally mistakenly posted this as Home). I found instructions in several places that say I should enable it in the Web Services Extension folder. Problem is that my IIS6 doesn't have that folder under the local computer. Update: I trie...
For now I'm stuck with IIS6 for ASP.NET-MVC (as in I cant upgrade to Server 2008 yet). It doesnt seem to know that my RESTful URLS are dynamic files and isn't compressing them. All my old .aspx files are compressed (as seen in Fiddler), but not the '/products/1001' type URLS. Is there any way to get IIS6 to compress my ActionResults in...
According to the msdn.microsoft.com site, .NET 3.5 Routing should work under IIS6 and II7 in classic mode. I've made the mods to the web.config file and tested under IIS7 integrated mode and it's working great. I'd love to keep IIS7 Integrated, but my webhost is still just IIS6 (with .net 3.5). So... has anyone gotten this to work? I...

I need to deploy my web service. It needs to run in a separate application pool in IIS with its own credentials. Is it possible to do this by using a Web Setup Project in VS 2008? By default, I seem to only be able to choose an existing application pool. ...
