How can I restart IIS 6 's defaultAppPool when I click a button of a webform page in an asp.net web app. I tried to use HttpRuntime.UnloadAppDomain(); but it can not restart the IIS 6 's defaultAppPool. ...
I have developed a web app a year ago aimed to work with IIS6. Now we are moving to IIS7 and I thought, I'd do some integration tests. One of this fails: The web app is more or less a search-engine, giving a 404 or 500 (thanks to your google-advisor ...) when there weren't any results or the data-container is not loaded yet. With IIS6 t...
Hi, I have a Windows Server 2003 64-Bit VPS, and I'm experiencing a problem with pages, or rather more specifically images loading slow for all of the websites that are hosted on it. I have a shared hosting account with a particular company and also the VPS, and an identical site loads slower on the VPS. Initially I thought it was a c...
I currently have a wildcard SSL certificate running on IIS 6 and needs to be renewed. The new certificate bit-strength is now 2048 (the current one that needs to be renewed is 1024). Is there any easy way to get a certificate request file that is 2048 bit when renewing from a 1024? I don't see the option to change bit strength for ren...
All, I'm currently having trouble tracking down an issue we are having with a production website. The issue is that the site is becoming unresponsive during the day, requiring a recycle of the application pool to get the site back up and running again. If we don't see the issue right away, there are times when the site will come back up...
Can anyone provide a repeatable process for hosting a precompiled website or a web application in IIS6 that can be built using aspnet_compiler? I cannot get code to build reliably (works sometimes) with aspnet_compiler without hitting the "cannot load type: global" error. Changing to a website does not help as I can't even get the precom...
I'm currently working on a ASP.Net 3.5 project and trying to implement session timeout detection. I know how to do it with enabled session cookies, but without i'm totally lost. When session timeout occurs i want to redirect the user to some custom page. Can someone explain me how to do it? My cookie based solution looks like this an...
I have one form in a PHP (5.2.9-1) application that causes IIS (Microsoft-IIS/6.0) to throw the following error when POSTed: The page you are looking for cannot be displayed because an invalid method (HTTP verb) was used to attempt access. It's an HTTP 405 status code. All other forms in the application work, so I believe that the ...
Hello, I am wondering if there is a way to enumerate the collection of applications pools (not the applications in a given pool - but the pools themselves) on the local IIS server using ASP.net 3.5 without the use of WMI, and if so can someone provide a link or example to how this is done? (I forgot to add the IIS version is 6.0). ...

We have a Dot net nuke site setup to run on a domain, we would like all http://www.site.com to redirect to just http://site.com. I can find lots of info for IIS 7 but very little and certainly nothing that has worked for IIS 6. ...
I have an ASP.net web app and on my test (database) server I have enabled sqlserver to store the viewstate and when I run the app from visual studio this works fine. However when I try to host the app on the production machine (IIS 6) the viewstate is still present in each page request. If I use the exact same connection settings again...

Hello! I'm seeing a very strange issue on our live platform that consists of four webserver Windows Server 2003 boxes sitting in a cluster behind an ISA server cluster. They are all running IIS 6. We have the need for webservice requests to be made from a .Net 2.0 webapp to the outside world so we have utilised the 'defaultProxy' ...
I have an interesting request from my client and am trying to figure out the best way to handle it - with a script preferably. They want me to have 2 sites on production. The first is the actual live website, the second is the last version (in case we need to roll back) and will be the target of the next upgrade. Once the upgrade is d...
This is a bit of a throwback question, and probably relatively fundamental, but I'm at a loss. How does IIS manage Classic ASP session state? We have an app that stores user information in session, and when many users are using the app, it seems to be recycling session for users, even though the "expire period" has not elapsed. We su...
After upgrading to .NET Framework 3.5, I can't set 80 as a HTTPS port in IIS6. Only when I uninstalled .NET Framework 3.5, IIS accepts 80 as a HTTPS port again and operate normally. The question is whether this behaviour is by design or a bug results from unexpected interaction between IIS and .NET Framework 3.5. To my understanding, D...
it seems IIS6 on Win2003 R2 Enterprise x64 SP2 will not allow you to use .com in a url path. e.g if i create a folder foo.com in my web root, containing a default.htm, this url results in a 404: http://localhost/foo.com/default.htm however, following the exact same steps on Win2003 R2 Standard x86 SP2, and IIS6 will serve up the file ...
