Hello everyone, I have 1 website on IIS ("myWebsite") and another inside this one ("secondWebsite") as an application. Both are ASP.NET Mvc websites. I have a method who works perfectly on the first one : public static string AbsolutePath(this UrlHelper url, string path) { Uri requestUrl = url.RequestContext.HttpContext.Re...
In IIS 6, I typically used code to query the metabase as in the following: var entry = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://localhost/W3SVC"); foreach (DirectoryEntry site in entry.Children) { // Blah } Now in IIS 7, this only functions if IIS 6 compatibility is installed. What I'd really like to do is use the recommended IIS 7 way of doing thi...
Generally we should have control of our AppPools and be able to force the Managed Pipeline Mode. In my case I don't have control and would like to implement the code behind code a little differently based on the Managed Pipeline Mode (Integrated vs Classic). I just don't know how to detect this. Is there a simple way to do it from within...
We have recently put up a new server with IIS7, where we now have published a .NET4 site. Locally everything works fine, but on this server the Default.aspx is not working. No events are firing at all for this page. Every other page works as should. We've tried deleting the Default.aspx and adding a new blank one with just a button eve...

I've set-up a cruisecontrol.net server with IIS7. I want to be able to view the web dashboard. Everything has worked for me before fine in IIS6, but now it seems to be broke in IIS7. If I browser to: http://192.168.93.133:21234/default.aspx I get the following error: XML Parsing Error: not well-formed Location: http://192.168.93.133:21...
I am used to IIS6 and recently tried IIS7 for a new site. One thing that differs is the ability to display the exact error that occurs in a page and output it to the browser. IIS7 will just simply throw a 500 Error page out without explaining the details, unless the detailed output option is selected. However, when I have the detailed...
I'm running IIS7 on Server 2008 (R1). When I run a completely blank .aspx page, the page still takes more than one second to load, even after compiling and refreshing the browser several times. A non-aspx file, i.e. image or css file takes about 200ms. I've even timed it from the BeginRequest event to the EndRequest event, which rep...

Hello! I am using forms authentication in IIS7 to password-protect a dev site, but the authentication seems to get by-passed when the site contains only static HTML files + login.aspx + web.config. When I renamed the files to .aspx, I am prompted with the login form I am not doing anything fancy. I have a very simple login script and i...
I'm working on a site that has a downloads section and I want it to be so that I can simply drop a file in a subfolder of a bin_docs directory and have it linked and listed automatically by the server on page refresh. I see people using a combination of php and .htaccess rules to accomplish this, however the site will be hosted on an I...

I have mercurial setup by following these instructions. I'm trying to understand where or what file to setup the users in. Everything I've read seems kind of cryptic... it gives all these snippets of code saying use this but it seems to be leaving out steps of how it's all connected and what file to put the snippets of code in... can so...
Hello! I'm writting a software in C# and .NET to manage my store, which has a site where you can go and opt in to receive a sellers person visit. This site has an behind the scenes manager, but I want the software to do this instead, effectively removing the browser manager and the first step towards this goal is to allow the software a...
So our connection string is constructed from app settings rather than stored as an actual connection string. Stupid I know, was done years before I was here. Question is, can I do something in the web.config or in IIS itself to define the processes default connection pool from a configuration standpoint so I don't have to change the cod...
