I need to implement a functionality in one of my web app in such a way that if i host a webapp in the IIS (let say
http://localhost/mywebapp
), it should also open through
http://localhost
I simply cannot install my web app on the root web app i.e.
http://localhost
For this, I found a setting in web.config for IIS7 named as HttpRedirect. Which i set programatically during application installation.
But, I wouldn't able find the same setting for IIS6 which i can set programmatically. I found a solution through which it can be done but its manually. http://www.serverintellect.com/support/iis/iis-url-redirect/
Any idea on how to create this programatically in IIS6.
I am using c# as a language in .net4.

I have just begin using ASP.Net Web application in Visual Studio. What I want to know is that I have two web pages namely index1.aspx and index2.aspx. I want to host them separately using different port numbers in local host on the iis server. I know site binding is used in these cases but not sure how to go about it.
What is the best way to do this? I want them to run simultaneously and communicate between each other.
In IIS there is something called Virtual directory. You can create two web applications in IIS and make both pointing to same physical location on your system.
You can also update settings of each web application to have different index pages. i.e. web app1 shall use Index1.aspx as index page, and web app 2 shall use Index2.aspx.
Virtual directories are so cool, you can use the same code base for multiple tenants. All we have to create is new web apps or sites in IIS.
So I solved it like this:
I created two projects WebApp1 and WebApp2 in the same Solution.
Right Click on Solution Explorer--> Properties--->Select the radio button with Multiple Startup projects.
Also make sure The Action of atleast one of the projects is set to Start only . The rest can be Start Without Debugging.
To connect IIS to your web application say webapp1:

Hope this helps anyone who is trying this out.
I've made a C# ASP.NET Application using VS 2013. What I want to do is use it on my localhost using IIS.
How do I do it work? When it go to localhost, it just appears a black page.
I've created a new site on IIS Manager and ponted it to de fisical path of my application. Registered the ASP.NET on IIS...
I've tried whats in the How do you publish an ASP.net MVC application from Visual Studio 2013 to your local network? .
So, I don't need to use IIS, I could use other web server, like Apache...
I want to be able to open Chrome, go to localhost:8080/ for example and get my application, without having to open VS and run the project etc...
Also, if other people could access the application on my local network, it would be great. I just want to use my MVC web aplication like it was on the internet itself, like I can access google.com and use it, but I want to do so in my local network only.
If I try to access a simple HTML file, using IIS, it works perfectly. Now I want to use my C# MVC web application.
Is there a way to do this? Using IIS, Apache, whatever...
I have created a website using asp.net c# for my college library,i have completed it with all their requirements.I know setup files cannot be created for asp.net websites,so,now i need a way to at least create a link for the website,so that they can access the website from anywhere in the college systems and use it.I have tried deploying and publishing nothing is working.I need any other ideas.
Make sure that the web server you're deploying on is publicly (or at least locally within your college network) accessible. If it is, then accessing a particular website is just a matter of sharing its URL with others. You don't need a SETUP for it.
Note that what you see in a browser when you press F5 is most likely an instance of the built-in "ASP.NET Development Server" that is accessible only on the development machine. You need to deploy your site to an instance of IIS (or some other equivalent) to access it from other machines.
There are 2 steps that you need to perform.
Publish the website
Hosting
You can do it either in the IIS of local domain server to be accessible within the network
OR you can purchase a domain and host it on server to be accessible from anywhere.
You can see this on how to host application in IIS 7.
There are two types of deployment
Local
Global
Local Deployment: Download Cassini Web Server , Install it and Configure the WebApp or Website on that. It will give you the Network Url. Use that url to access it from anywhere in your local network.
Global Deployment: Go to Domain and Hosting Provider, purchase domain and link that domain to webspace and hosting that will Support .Net framework. Generally all windows based hosting now a days have IIS. Do not go for LINUX ,as you need MONO there which is generally not available. Upload you publish pages in the root of our virtual directory. In most of the hosts its httpdocs and some where have wwwroot, depending upon the control panels. Access that pages from the domain name.
this website provides all the details step by step!! its awesome it worked for me :)

Hi i am trying to write a silverlight applicaiton on Facebook. I am using Visual Studio 2010. I have created a silverlight application and VS created a test page for it automaticly. I can acces and test my application on localhost (I have installed iis7 with default settings on win7x64 fresh install). I am publishing the test page to wwwroot and everything works on localhost. But when i try to access my application from Facebook i am getting this error:
"HTTP Error 405.0 - Method Not Allowed
The page you are looking for cannot be displayed because an invalid method (HTTP verb) is being used."
But if i create a ASP.NET application and publist it same way it works.
So what sould i do?

Have you tried spoofing your host? I do not know if it is the case anymore, but in the past, Facebook refused to interact with http://localhost/. By editing my hosts file, I was able to get Facebook to interact with my local environment without having to push to a publicly accessible server.
Just edit your hosts file, putting in something like my.localhost.com, restart your browsers, and put that domain in to your Facebook app. It could work... apologies if it doesn't.
I am looking to implement a WebDAV server in ASP.Net. the app will be deployed to IIS 6. I have seen a few frameworks that provide this functionality, but I can't seem to identify how they're able to accomplish it without (apparently) modifying IIS settings.
My specific question is how do I configure IIS and ASP.Net so that a IHttpModule/IHttpHandler might have an opportunity to handle any of the additional WebDAV verbs (i.e. LOCK, OPTIONS, PROFIND, etc.)
There is no way to configure WebDAV verbs in IIS 6 without modifying IIS settings. It is possible only with IIS 7 and later.
To handle all verbs required by WebDAV in IIS 6 you will need to create an application wildacrd map. Right click on your web application in IIS 6 MMC console and go to Properties->Virtual Directory Tab->Configuration. Click Insert to add new wildcard map.
Executable - \Microsoft.NET\Framework\<.Net
Framework Version>\aspnet_isapi.dll
Verify that file exists - Unchecked
On Home Directory tab of your application properties set Execute permissions to Scripts only and allow reads.
Here is the web.config example: http://www.webdavsystem.com/server/prev/v2/documentation/hosting_iis_asp_net/webconfig_example
Please note that this web.config example was specifically created and tested with ASP.NET 2.0 on IIS 6 on Server 2003 and IIS 5.1 on XP. It does not handle &, %, + and trailing dots (.).
ASP.NET 4.x provides means for handling any special characters in your WebDAV server, configuring web.config, including &, % and '.'. The web.config that supports IIS versions 6-8 is generated by IT Hit WebDAV Server Engine Wizard.
Check out Geoff Lane's articles on WebDAV:
http://www.zorched.net/2006/01/20/aspnet-web-application-without-aspx-extension/ - shows configuration of verbs in IIS and HttpModule setup.

http://www.zorched.net/2006/03/01/more-webdav-tips-tricks-and-bugs/
I would take a look at this project http://sourceforge.net/projects/webdav/ for a webdav implementation in C#. If you must build your own it is nice to reference a completed one; even better if you can reuse it.
Yes, you will need to modify IIS6 settings to support binding the ISAPI module for .NET to all request types and not checking if a file exists. There is no other way to do this on IIS6 because web dev clients on windows will do an OPTIONS request on the root (/) of the website when checking for webdav support.
II7 gives you more options...
