c:\inetpub\wwwr oot is probably correct physical path in that case. Check in
your IIS configuration console what exactly indicates wwwroot path and
change to proper if need.

All my websites are in a folder c:\WebTest on my local host. For
example, the files for Web1.com are in c:\WebTest\Web1 .com.
If I look at the properties of Web1.com, on the Home Directory tab the
local path is set to c:\WebTexs\Web1 .com.
If I run Server.MapPath( "/") from a page in Web1.com, the result is c:
\inetpub\wwwroo t.
In IIS, all the virtual directories are in a folder Default Web Site.
The properties of this show a local path of c:\inetpub\wwwr oot.
Server.MapPath( "/") will always resolve to the local path I set in
Default Web Site properties.
I want Server.MapPath( "/") to resolve to the website that runs this
command, in my example, resolve to c:\WebTest\Web1 .com.
How do I set up IIS so that Server.MapPath uses the local path of the
website rather than the local path of the Default Web Site
properities?
I have noticed on my operation server in the internet, the local path
setting in Default Web Site properties is greyed out. Server.MapPath
gives the correct answer on this server.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Your local host is XP? Do really have multiple websites on the local host
or do you in fact simply have one the Default Web Site under which you've
created one or more virtual directories enabled as applications?
I think what you really need is this:-
sPath = Request.ServerV ariables("APPL_ PHYSICAL_PATH")

Server.MapPath( "/") returns the physical root for the site. If you need the
physical location for a virtual dir, try Server.MapPath( "./") instead.

Many thanks for your help, Anthony and Dan.
Spoilt for choice! Request.ServerV ariables("APPL_ PHYSICAL_PATH") or
Server.MapPath( "./").
Does it matter which I use?

I haven't actually tested it but it seems to me that Server.MapPath( "./")
will return the physical folder that the current ASP page is found in. This
is not necesarily the same as the application physical path. If the page
executing the code is in a sub-folder with in the application folder the two
will return different results. So it depends on what you really want. The
current folder the ASP pages is running in or the root folder of the
application.

When the web site is not setup as the default then MapPath("virtname") returns the correct physical path for a virtual directory which has been setup.
However, when the web site is setup as the default web site then MapPath("virtname") doesn't return the correct physical
path.
For example,
http://localhost/mws/default.aspx
MapPath("virtdir") in this instance correctly returns "C:\mws\data"

Hi all,
I have an Access database and try to create a connection to it using the
Server.MapPath method. I have the app lib in c:\inetprub\wwwroot\apps\myApp
and the database in c:\inetpub\dbq\myDB.
Using Server.MapPath("../../../dbq/myDB") should as I understand it take me
to the myDB lib. But instead I get an error message saying
"Cannot use a leading .. to exit above the top directory."

Hello,
I have a web application with a virtual directory in it. With 'virtual
directory' i mean
a folder whose physical path is different from the physical path of the
application, but in which Web Sharing is active.
For example:
my application is in "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MyApp",
the Virtual folder is in "C:\VirtualFolder",
and IIS sees it as if it were in "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MyApp\VirtualFolder".

Hello all,
I have created an ASP.NET website that uses Crystal Reports that works on
the localhost (my PC), but when I copy it to the server it does not.
The problem is ExcelUseConstantColumnWidth = False.
On my PC when exporting a report, it works - columns are varible width to
fit the field, from the server it does not - I get constant width columns. I
suspect it is a DLL issue, but so far all my comparisons are coming out the
same.
