Web application in non-root folder

Carl Gilbert

Hi

I am trying to get a simple ASP.NET web application to work on my 1&1
(1and1) web space. I managed to get something working a while ago, with
thanks to Karl Seguin, but for some unknown reason it stopped working.

I have two domains:
www.airbrushesonline.com which is directed at a folder on my web space
called 'tm'
www.airbrushesonline.co.uk which is directed at a folder on my web space
called 'tm2'
The only difference between the two folders is that I have requested that
1&1 set 'tm' to be an application folder which they have done.

I have then created a very simple web application that has one page with a
textbox, label and button and some code behind the button to set the text of
the label to equal the text of the textbox. Hardcore!
I have then copied the entire web application to both folders. As I have no
index page, I get an explorer view of the folder when I navigate to both of
the domains listed above. When I click on WebForm1.aspx I get a resource
cannot be found error in both folders. When I put my web.config file in the
root of my web space, additional ASP.NET version information is appended to
the bottom of the error which I feel proves that it's looking in the root
folder for something.

If I then modify the address to include /tm and /tm2 for the .com and .co.uk
respectively, the page then displays correctly on the .com where I use:
http://www.airbrushesonline.com/tm/WebForm1.aspx
but I get a configuration error on the .co.uk when I use:
http://www.airbrushesonline.co.uk/tm2/WebForm1.aspx
which is to be expected as the folder has not been set to be an application
folder.

Anyway, that's not the point. When I put my bin folder in the root of my
web space I still get a resource cannot be found error which I was not
expecting when using http://www.airbrushesonline.co.uk/WebForm1.aspx
When I had the error before, Karl advised that the application was looking
in the root as I expected and that by placing the bin folder there would
resolve the issue. I did that before and it worked but now I can no longer
get such a simple thing to work and that makes me quite sad and a little bit
angry.

Can anyone please explain where I have gone wrong and how to resolve this
issue?

Regards, Carl Gilbert

Loading mixed-mode application without .NET installed

by: Staale L. Hansen | last post by:

We have an application which uses some mixed-mode code to expose a .NET 1.1 managed API. Only the necessary files are compiled with /clr. We want to be able to load the application without .NET present, and then just disable the API. But we are not even able to give an error message when we start the application without mscoree.dll present. We have tried delay-loading mscoree.dll, but that did not help because the OS loader (at least on...

Multiple simulataneous forms in a sinlge application

How does one launch multiple forms in an application? Using Photoshop as an example, this application seems to be composed of many 'disjoint' forms. Yet, they all seem somewhat 'active' in contrast to one of them always being 'modal' (e.g., if you are moving over a picture the 'Info' form will update the (x,y) screen location in realtime even if not the selected form. Also note that this example implies the various forms can communicate...

SQL Server will be used as the back-end database to a non trivial client application. In question is the choice of client application: I need to be able to speak intelligently about when one client (MS Access vs ..NET Windows Forms) would be preferred over the other.

Book about database application development?

by: Wolfgang Keller | last post by:

Hello, does anyone know of a good book that about development of database applications? Preferrably language independent, if that's not available something "readable" as the example language would be nice (Delphi is ok for me, not any kind of C-dialect including Java and C#). Unfortunately there seems to be nothing dedicated to database applications with Python.

Possible to retrieve password of current application pool

Running as an administrator, I can retrieve the account password stored by IIS for any application pool (using the WAMUserPass property). But, unsurprisingly, an ASP.NET application running inside an application pool that is does not have administrator privileges can't even enumerate the list of application pools. I can access the application pool by hard-coding the name, but even then the WAMUserPass is an empty property value...
