iis-6

I have some static images in a folder on my IIS 6-based website that I want to be downloaded as little as possible (to preserve bandwidth). I've set the Content Expiration to expire after 30 days. Is there anything else I can do in IIS to try to maximize the caching by browsers, proxy, and gateway caches? Such as adding a Cache-Control header? Anything else?

I want to change Enable32BitAppOnWin64 property using C#. I know that the way of interacting with IIS 6 and IIS 7 are different. but I need the solution for both versions. There are a few differences in programmatically managing IIS 6 and IIS 7. IIS 6 is programmatically managed using the DirectoryEntry class and the metabase database API. IIS 7 is managed using the Microsoft.Web.Administration assembly and the ServerManager class. Furthermore IIS 6 is not able to run both 64 bit and 32 bit worker processes at the same time (see this MSDN BLOG ). So setting Enable32BitAppOnWin64 to true for

I need to read a website's folders using WMI and C# in IIS 6.0. I am able to read the Virtual directories and applications using the "IISWebVirtualDirSetting" class. However the physical folders located inside a website cannot be read using this class. And for my case i need to read sub folders located within a website and later on set permission on them. For my requirement i dont need to work on Virtual Directories/Web Service Applications (which can be easily obtained using the code below..). I have tried to use IISWebDirectory class but it has been useful. Here is the code that reads IIS

I already create a virtual directory (cgi-bin) with permission : Scripts and Executable... When I test : http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe , I got 404 error, The page cannot be found Am I supposed to Add a EXTENSION mapping to .exe files ? Which executable ? Thanks! I solved that: Go to Web Service Extensions in the IIS service manager Select Add a new web service extension. On the required files tab, add C:\YourMapserverInstalldir\mapserv.exe Set it to allow Thanks anyway... Yes, you will have to create an application mapping between the file name extension of your script and the script

I'm trying to create a self-signed wildcard SSL certificate for use on a number of development and test servers running IIS 6. Following various guides has led to a couple ways of generating the certificates, but I haven't had any luck getting it to work. The most successful ways I've had were following this OpenSSL guide and using makecert.exe like so: makecert.exe -r -b 01/01/2009 -e 01/01/2042 -sr LocalMachine -ss MY -a sha1 -n CN="*.example.com" -sky exchange -pe -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 -sy 12 -sp "Microsoft RSA SChannel Cryptographic Provider" wildcard.cer Both of which generate

I'm having a problem getting ServiceStack to work with HTTPS in IIS6 and I can't seem to find any documentation on setting this up. Currently I have an endpoint setup like so - http://example.com/api.ashx . When I browse to this, i get the useful ServiceStack generated page which explains the APIs available at http://example.com/api.ashx/metadata . When i browse to https://example.com/api.ashx (notice https) i instead get this error message - Server Error in '/' Application. The resource cannot be found. Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could

We are using Windows 2003 server with IIS 6.0 and thinking of migrating to Window Server 2008 with IIS 7.0 to host our .Net applications Is anyone aware what are the benefits or drawbacks of it? One definite benefit is the new "Integrated Mode" on application pools. This allows asp.net to hook into the pipeline earlier than was possible in iis6. Some of our applications use this to do url rewriting for files which was previous impossible with out adding a wildcard extension mapping to the asp.net dll. Another feature that I've found useful is remote management. I believe remote management may
