I'm trying to use MSDN Reports Services 2005, but I'm realising that I broke the installation, so I'm trying to fix it without having to rebuild it entirely. (Though I'm becoming more tempted the longer this goes on.) Unfortunately, all the documentation assumes you haven't done something stupid. ;) Amongst the things I've broken in t...

I have a few aspx files in a "Cache" folder in my application and I do not want HttpModules to run for those files in that folder. I tried having a web.config in subdirectory but learned that HttpModules take the root web.config and not that of the subdirectory. Reference 1, Reference2. So I decided to have this directory as a sub appli...
