iis-6

I have a web hosting that replied to me it was not possible to alter the IIS6 settings to set the mapping of .mvc to the Asp.Net ISAPI dll, nor enable Wildcard Application Mappings. In short, I cannot change any IIS setting. Is there any way to run ASP.NET Mvc in that conditions? Note : I read a few related questions here about this, but didn't understand them in some cases, and it wasn't what I needed in others. I'd appreciate it if before closing this one as duplicate, there was an explanation as to why, and perhaps a paraphrasing of another question. Thanks if mapping to .aspx exist, try

I need to know how I can detect the current application pool I am running under, so I can do a Recycle on it programmatically. Does anyone know how to do this for IIS6? My current code for recycling the app-pool is: /// <summary> /// Recycle an application pool /// </summary> /// <param name="IIsApplicationPool"></param> public static void RecycleAppPool(string IIsApplicationPool) { ManagementScope scope = new ManagementScope(@"\\localhost\root\MicrosoftIISv2"); scope.Connect(); ManagementObject appPool = new ManagementObject(scope, new ManagementPath("IIsApplicationPool.Name='W3SVC/AppPools/"

I have made an asp.net page which executes a long sp. lets say the the function that executes the sp is called Func1 . Ive met with that problem : If i ran Func1 in the same thread ( normal execution), the apppool won't recycle itself since he's seeing it as a busy/working. But if I execute Func1 in another thread - so the apppool recycle's itself after the time that is set here : My question is : why is that ? is it true that if i run a command synchronously , so app is active and not eligible for apppool recycle ? And if i create it in a new thread so it does eligible for apppool recycle ?

As a dev team, we're looking to switch to asp.net MVC and I've heard rumors about IIS 6 not being able to support all of the MVC functionality. Is this true? Is there any official set of functionality supported in IIS 7 vs IIS 6? Should we completely avoid running it on IIS6? You do not loose any functionality of ASP.Net MVC; however, you have one of two options. You can either define an extension on your URL's which will allow you to set up mapping. So for example: www.example.com/books/computer/list might become: www.example.com/books.mvc/computer/list You can use any extension you want so

I have a web application written in ASP.Net 3.0 using C#, the production machine is a windows server 2003 with IIS 6.0 and sql server 2005. Application Structure The following shows the structure of my ASP.net web application: root application in IIS (//localhost/es) includes the common pages, for instance: master pages, theme, user control, images folder. number of sub-projects under the root application (//localhost/es/sub-project). delete web.config in sub-projects assemble files of sub-projects is under bin folder of root application (sub-project properties >> compile >> build output path:

So, in your experience, whats the best way? Is there a secure way that's also scriptable/triggerable in a build automation tool? Edit: I should mention this is windows/.net and I'll be deploying to iis6 For some projects I use Capistrano to push out to live. It is built on top of ruby and makes deploy script writing super easy and uses ssh. On other projects I have a tiny deploy app that uses bash to do an svn export to a temporary directory and then rsync it over to the live server. You can make rsync use ssh. I greatly prefer the Capistrano method, even if your project isn't in ruby/rails.

How can I programmatically change IIS application pools' settings and properties (for example: the Enable 32-Bit Applications setting)? Are there reference guides on properties for IIS 6 or 7 on MSDN or Technet? Try this on for size. DirectoryEntry root = this.GetDirectoryEntry("IIS://" + this.DomainName + "/W3SVC/AppPools"); if (root == null) return null; List<ApplicationPool> Pools = new List<ApplicationPool>(); ... Alexander G You can solve the problem using appcmd.exe. Where "DefaultAppPool" is the name of the pool. appcmd list apppool /xml "DefaultAppPool" | appcmd set apppool /in
