Just transferred an Expression Engine web site to a new hosting environment. New server is Windows 2003 Standard running PHP 5.2.44 via FastCGI and IIS 6. Other PHP sites run fine on this server (WordPress, CMSMadeSimple, etc.). This is the first ExpressionEngine site we've worked with. We've restored the database, setup a user account f...
I have an old classic ASP site I'm maintaining and in the midst of converting to asp.net. I've one page that has external endpoints posting data to it and I'd like capture/monitor the posts that are being made to this page. Does anyone know of any tools which I can use to dump these posts either to a log file or database somewhere? I gu...
Hello, I'm trying to render a web page that contains images into a pdf document using ABCpdf. This is done from a web application. When I run the application on my development machine in IIS5, everything is fine. When I deploy the application on IIS6, the images don't appear in the pdf. To reproduce the problem, I made a simple web ap...
I have a development machine setup with IIS 6. I have 3 websites configured on different IP addresses: Default (All Unassigned) WS1 (192.168.1.250) WS2 (192.168.1.249) I was wondering how IIS determines which site to hit when I specify localhost in the URL? Is this configurable? If so, how do I go about doing this? ...

We are tracing a connection leak in an application that uses remoting hosted in IIS so to clear orphaned connections we have scheduled an AppPool recycle at specified times of the day. However I'm not seeing evidence that this recycle is happening according to the schedule - I have changed the metabase property so IIS will log all recyc...
I'm configuring a web site using PowerShell and I want to set the default document. How do I do this? ...
There are lots of similar questions to this, but they all seem to involve either configuring permissions or installing a plugin. I'm looking for a solution that is "dumb" - i.e. to allow the code to be deployed from source control and automatically have access to certain paths blocked, without anyone needing to configure the server. I ...
I have IIS 7.0 on my development machine and IIS 6.0 on my server. On my development machine I was able to set a handler map on a directory within my site called /ViewHtml/ and I mapped it to asp.net. In my global.asax I check the request sent to asp.net for /ViewHtml/ and I serve the appropriate html file(html version of a Doc, Power P...
At my company, we have tiered environment for our web applications (development, staging, production).

We run multiple web servers in an infrastructure that makes use of a time service to synchronise the servers' datetimes. A particular web form that the web application displays has an 'AsAt' textbox that gets set using a DateTime.Now call when the page is rendered. A timestamp is written back to an Oracle database on insert or update as ...
As much as I hate to admit it, I am a definite noobie when it comes to IIS. I would like to learn more so I am more comfortable with it and don't feel so dumb around colleagues :) Obviously IIS in general is pretty big to tackle in a few paragraphs, so I would like to know what kind of things in IIS are really important to you on a day ...
Update Putting this at the top because it is crazy :) So some users have it work, some don't. When I use my own account via IE7 it doesn't work (my code catches the exception and falls back to simply using the identity name instead of the AD fullname). When I try via Chrome it prompts me for the username and password, which I supply,...
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 am trying to host a WCF service in IIS 6.0 on server 2003. And when I browse to the server I get the following error. SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.DnsPermission Is this related to the permissions granted to the user account the app pool is running under or some other problem, and how do I fix thi...
I know this question is overly popular, but I find nothing that addresses rewriting the host, only rewriting the path. How could I accomplish redirecting/rewriting "http://myHost.com" to "http://myAlias.com/hidden/default.html"? ADDED: where myAlias is just an alias of myHost. ...
I was wondering: if I have some DLLs in the GAC - will they get restored if I restore a backup of IIS6 on a fresh Windows 2003 box? Or will I need to backup/rebuild the GAC separately from IIS? ...
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. ...
