    - SMTP/POP3 servers I am sorta' lost. First, I am using IIS6.0 (Win2K3 SP1 machine) and the web sites use host headers. I have set up a virtual (not the default) SMTP server and POP3 server on my Win2K3 SP1 machine. I can use an ISP email client and send an email to my server. It arrives in the Queue folder just fine, but never gets delivered. Since I created a virtual SMTP server, I was expecting the Badmail, Drop, Pickup, and Queue folders to be on DifferentDriveLetter:\foldername folder (there were no Mailbox, Route, SortTemp folders) ... well, they were there - less the other ones. But, when I created POP3 server, these same folders (along with some other folders: Mailbox, Route, SortTemp) were created on the C:\Inetpub\mailroot folder and the Mailbox folder on the C-drive contained the usernamer.mbx file. Thus, when an incoming email arrived, it went to the DifferentDriveLetter:\foldername\Queue folder and just sat there and was never delivered. It would never appear in the Drop folder on this drive and in the MS Outlook Express 6 inbox. Why does the POP3 server place the Badmail, Drop, Pickup, Queue, etc folders on C:\Inetpubmailroot drive and not on the DifferentDriveLetter:\foldername (where the virtual SMTP server created it's folders/files)? Can anyone help me????? What am I doing wrong????? -- NuBee Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386859

    - IIS caching .css files I'm making changes to a .css file on a live web site however I can not see the changes sent out by the web server.

    - Assembly permission error after uploading ASP .Net applicaion I have been banging my head against the wall for a day now wondering WHY this application works perfectly on my development machine but falls on its face when I upload it to our web server (WS2k3, IIS 6, running Sharepoint Server). As soon as I uploaded the page, I recieved the error below regarding one of the libraries included in the project with line 206 being highlighted in red: I am wondering if the server having Sharepoint Server installed (not just Sharepoint Services) is causing it to have increased security? Do I HAVE to make this a strongname assembly? If so, can I create the key and whatnot on my development workstation and use that same key on the web server? I am the first to admit that I need quite a bit of guidance with this problem. My patience with IIS6 and Sharepoint is running quite thin. Thank you!!!

    - Cannot Get IIS6 Custom ASP Error to work I have an IIS5 website (written ages ago...late 90s). It uses a custom 404 error page (404.asp) to perform some processing and tailor the error page accordingly. I have migrated the site to a Windows 2003 Server running IIS6. I have enabled the ASP Web Service Extension, the site works just fine with the custom error message being the lone exception. I have configured the custom error as follows: IIS Manager Select Website, right-click choose properties Select Custom Errors tab Select 404 error Select Edit Select URL as message type Set URL = /<Website directory>/Errors/404.asp The Internet Guest Account should have access to all of the website. When I try to invoke a 404 error all I get returned is this: "The system cannot find the path specified." The IIS Logs show this information (obsfucted IP's) log from one that works (old site running on IIS5) 2006-08-22 20:37:24 10.*.*.* - W3SVC7 <WEB_SERVER_NAME> 10.*.*.* 80 GET /errors/404.asp 404;http://10.*.*.*/<PageDoesNotExist> 200 0 0 578 640 HTTP/1.1 10.*.*.* Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.1;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322;+InfoPath.1;+.NET+CLR+2.0.50727) log from one that fails (new server IIS6) 2006-08-22 20:19:32 W3SVC723143 10.*.*.* GET /<PageDoesNotExist> - 80 - 10.*.*.* Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.2;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322;+.NET+CLR+2.0.50727) 404 0 2 Is there something I am missing? Is it possible to have an ASP page executed as a custom error page in IIS6...I would think so and that I have it configured incorrectly but I cannot seem to find any document that tells me to do anything different.

    - IIS6, ActiveX, and database access I'm migrating a legacy intranet site from an IIS5 to IIS6 server. The site uses ActiveX DLLs to access a SQL database. The problem is that everything runs fine when hitting localhost from the server, but the database access appears not to work. Each page gets the Windows logon name and converts it to an ID: ----- set obj = server.CreateObject("TN.CClassName") strUserName = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") lngUserID = Session("UserID") if lngUserID = "" or lngUserID = 0 then lngUserID = obj.GetUserID(strUserName) Session("UserID") = lngUserID if lngUserID = 0 then Response.Redirect "Errors/UnknownUser.asp?User=" & strUserName end if end if ----- Since a remote request always winds up on the UnknownUser page, I'm assuming that the DLL is fine but can't get to the database (since the CreateObject call didn't fail, and since all is well from localhost). It's obviously a permissions issue, but where? Thanks, David Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386841

    - Newbie: all http redirect to https problem Hi all, 1. I am using Windows 2003 Server SP1 with IIS 6.0. 2. I installed a server certificate and put it in DWS (Default Web Site) level. 3. When I entered "http://mydomain.com" or "https://mydomain.com" from any client computer, it came up fine. 3. I also went into DWS -> Properties -> Directory Security tab -> Secure Communications -> Edit -> tick Require SSL + require 128-bit encryption 4. By doing above, if I enter "http://mydomain.com", it will return 403.4 error message while "https://mydomain.com" comes back fine. 5. I copied a "http redirect to https" asp program from the Internet and I put it in the root level i.e. c:\inetpub\wwwroot\403-4.asp (this program is listed at the end of this message) 6. I went into DWS -> Properites -> Custom Errors tab. I changed the 403;4 entry and put an enry with Message Type: URL and URL pointing to /403-4.asp. 7. I then restarted IIS Admin Services 8. I went to a client machine and entered "http://mydomain.com" in IE 6. 9. It came back with "You are not authorized to view this page". At the bottom of the page is 'HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden 10. I created a test program called c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test.asp and I was able to bring it up by entering "https://mydomain.com/test.asp" (this program just have one line displaying "hello"). However, when I entered this entry in the customs error tab, I got the same error as in step 9 when I entered something like "http://mydomain.com" (I was expecting it to redirect to test.asp).

They are able to authenticate fine and browse the site, but when they click on a link to a powerpoint file .ppt, it prompts them for their same credentials again using IE. It does not do this when the user browses the site with firefox.

    - server certificate from cert service Greetings I have an IIS website that I need to enable SSL for. I am familiar with the process of generating a certificate request from IIS and I have done that and generated a certreq.txt file. For this we didn't need a verisign certificate so we installed certificates services on a Windows 2003 box as a standalone CA. I copied the file over to the CA server and had it generate a certificate, no problem. However what I can't figure out is how to get it to generate a .cer file that I can copy back to the web server and install in IIS. I'm not sure how to complete the process once the CA server has generated a certificate. With verisign I always got a file back that I installed on the web server. What am I missing here? thanks Colin PS - the CA server is a 2003 box that is a domain controller, the IIS server is win2k Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386814

    - Help getting IIS to run on Win XP Pro I need to have IIS running on my laptop for some demo applications. I went into control panel and installed the IIS components, did the reboot and all that. But, when I try to test the installation (http://127.0.0.1/) I get a Page Cannot be Displayed error message. In the MS troubleshooting guide, it says to ping the server, etc. I can do all that, they come back fine. (localhost, 127.0.0.1, servername, IP address), but all return the same error message. I've opened inetmgr and stopped and restarted the IIS server and the default web page, still no luck. This is on a clean refresh from the Compaq recovery disks for the laptop (Compaq V4440US), without any antivirus running. I don't have any anti-virus or firewall that I can find running. I turned the MS Firewal off as well. The only odd thing that I noticed is the MS page (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/iiiisin2.mspx?mfr=true) says there should be an asterik between the logo and the server name. On my screen, there isn't one. I don't know if that makes a difference or not, but other than that, it appears like it should be running. Anyone got an idea of where to try next? Thanks!

    - Session State Server vs SQLServer Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this. I have been put in charge of re-architecting a moderately busy Internet Site. Our daily logs are approximately 300MB with all of our virtual servers combined and many of the subwebs are ASP.NET applications. I am going to propose an architecture of 2 Dell Power Edge 1850 servers clustered via Network Load Balancing (NLB). I want users to not miss a beat if the servers failover in the middle of their session(s). This means that the Session State will need to be maintained on a seperate server. My question is this: "Should I use a Session State Server using the session state service or should I opt for the SQLServer option?" I think that it should also be said that I don't want the failure of any one single server to take the entire web down, so I am thinking that I may even want to have some redundancy for the Session State solution as well. Other wise if the Session State server or SQL Server goes down, then the entire web goes down. Your thoughts and input is appreciated. Thanks, Rob Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386808

I've created a website students.domainname.edu. I would like each students web address to be students.domainname.edu/userid. The web content is stored on another server. My planned approach is to create a virtual directory for each user under this new web site with a name equal to their user id. I have 2 questions: 1- Would this approach be considered "best practice", or is there a better way to do this? 2- Can anyone direct me to code or a resource that would help me automate the creation of these virtual directories with vb script? I started playing with the iisvdir /create command but it does not appear that this would work in vbscript code, and it doesn't allow me to set all the settings I need to configure. Any and all guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time! Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386806

    - Cannot download .mdb files. Error 403.1. Hi, I need to make certain access database files (.mdb) available for download from our IIS website. Clients must use the url to download the file. For example, http://mysite/download/inventory.mdb Clients are able to download text files and zip files just fine. The following urls seem to be working: http://mysite/download/customer.txt http://mysite/download/inventory.zip However, when a .mdb file is specified in the url, we get a 403.1 (Forbidden) error. Is there some configuration setting under IIS to enable download of .mdb files? I failed to find one. Thank you in advance for your help. Pradeep Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386803

    - Multiple requests for passwords I'm running a very simple HTML page on IIS 6. It asks for a password when intially accessing the site, which is what I want. But it then asks for the same credentials when people click on a link. It only does this one time, as soon as they enter thier credentials the second time they are good to go. Is there a way for me to stop IIS from asking the second time and still keep the website secure? Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386798

    - force web root into https; redirect issues We are running our site at www.waynesavings.com on secure hosting (Server 2003, IIS). We are using a custom 403.4 error page (called 403_4.asp, located under root) to redirect all users to https if they come in on http. The site is also using an instant refresh on the index.htm page under root to www.waynesavings.com/aboutus/home.htm due to issues with the javascript menus used on the site. The code we're using on the custom 403 page is this: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <% If UCase(Request.ServerVariables("HTTPS")) = "OFF" Then '''get page sRedirect = "https://" & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME") & Request.ServerVariables("PATH_INFO") & Request.Querystring Response.Redirect sRedirect End If %> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> </body> </html> It does the job just fine. However, if somebody has bookmarked a non-secure page (e.g. http://www.waynesavings.com/rates/index.htm), it will redirect the user NOT to the equivalent https page, but to the secure home page instead. Any input? If I can't get this solved, we'll just turn something bad into something good and encourage people to rebookmark the respective pages, but the perfectionist in me would like to see this solved.

    - help with IIS console bug: virtual directory beneath webapp disappears KB308179 talks about disappearing virtual directories. I have upgraded my WinXP Pro development PC to SP2, which supposedly contains the hotfix mentioned there. But in the IIS Management console, I still cannot see virtual directories that were created beneath my web applications. The virtual directory has been configured not to be an application; it merely points to another physical location on the drive where some 3rd party web controls are kept, centrally, so that can be shared among multiple applications. The virtual directories are displayed in the management console's treeview immediately after being created, but at some point (not sure when), they cease to appear. They still exist, because if I try to recreate the virtual directory, I get an error that the name is not unique. Where can I find the definition of the virtual directory so I can edit the properties (i.e. the actual path)? How is this bug repaired? Thanks Liam Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386788

    - IIS6 and ASP.NET tab on Web Sites folder The properties on the "Web Sites" folder in IIS6 is defaulted to ASP.NET Version 1.1.4322 and is greyed out. When I create a new web site it always defaults it to ASP.NET version 1.1.4332 however I would like it to default to ASP.NET 2.0.50727 which I run on all my sites including the the ones developed in ASP.NET 1.1 (I use the "Legacy" comand in our web.config sothey work correctly). The reason I want to change this is because if I make a change to the "Web Sites" folder it changes all of my web sites to ASP.NET 1.1. The of course they don't work any longer until I change them all back to ASP.NET 2.0. For some this wouldn't be a problem however I am currently running over 20 websites and growing on this server and each time I make a change (not very often) I have to change all of the rest of the web sites. So, my question how do I default to ASP.NET 2.0? Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386785

    - IIS 6.0, IUSR_, Guests and access to this computer from the networ We have a Windows application which uses HTTP .Net Remoting to use Business components hosted under IIS 6.0. I have found that the Windows App can't talk to the hosted components while the web server has the following GPO applied under active directory: "Deny access to this computer from the network". The Guests group is in this GPO. The IIS anonymous user IUSR_* is a member of this group. I have found two workarounds which do not involve changing the GPO's: 1) Remove IUSR_ from the Guests group (why is IUSR_ in this group?) 2) For this application hosted in IIS change the Anonymous Access Windows user account to a different user which isn't in the Guests group such as a domain user Can anyone tell me whether one of these solutions is less secure than the other?

    - Secure sub web, but not web root I've been asked to look at someones IIS issues and have found the following (IIS 6.0)... - The 'Default Web Site' is the company's external website - Within the default web they have sub webs for checking mail externally etc - The sub webs need to remain within a secure environment - The company's external website does not Can I remove the Default Web Site security so it does not require a certificate, but keep the subwebs using the certificate? Or would removing the certificate from the Default web automatically remove it from the subwebs? Moving the external website to a new web is not an option as getting the staff to know the difference between http and https is apparently a problem (i.e. they will simply want to type http://www.sitename.co.uk/exchange and get to the external web mail). I could write a script that simply redirects to https:// but this is hardly ideal. Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386781

    - Directory Securiy: UNCPassword and AuthFlags I am using the Altiris system management web service on IIS6.0. The Directory Security is fairly straightforward: all the virtual directories have Windows Integrated authentication, and some of them allow Anonymous. I need to change the authentication method to be Digest, so it can work across firewalls. When I remove WIA and add Digest, I am prompted by UNCPassword and AuthFlags inherited properties. My problem is that (it seems) if I say Yes, the wrong Anonymous settings are applied. If I say No, the changes I wanted to make are not applied. I have searched on AuthFlags and UNCPassword and I am none the wiser. What is the correct technique for adding or removing one authentication, without changing what is Anonymous or not? I want to leave the permissions in as much of a default state as possible. For example, if one virtual directory is inheriting security from another, I'd like to leave it inheriting even if I change the method used. Thanks, Anthony Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386776

    - IIS 6 404 Page not found error Hi all, I hope somebody has a solution to my problem. I'm running an ASP.NET 1.1 application that has no problems on W2000 servers. I was working with a client today and we can't get the application to run at all. He just setup a new W2003 Standard server. We installed IIS from the Windows CD. Then we installed the 1.1 Framework from Windows Update. I copied the ASP.NET application to a folder on C:\ of the intranet server. Then created a Virtual Directory pointing to the application. I made sure that the Framework was registered in IIS and that Default.aspx is listed in the Documents tab. For some reason we can't get the app to run on this particular server. I've run it in XP, Win 2003 SBS and Win 2000 Servers in that past without an issue. However today I checked a Win 2003 Standard R2 SP1 server in my office and the app won't run there either. We made sure that domainname\ASPNET account was configured and even gave explicit permissions to the account for the application folder. We can run iisstart.htm but cannot run the aspx files. Let me know if you need more information. Thanks Tag: IIS 6.0 logging fails Tag: 386769

    - ASP & ASP.NET beheave different depending on load order Hi, this is a weird behavior, and haven't seen any reference to this on google... I have a W2K Server machine, running IIS. On this IIS I have 5 different ASP applications, which all runned fine for years... Now, I installed an ASP.NET Web Services. The service works fine on the development machine, and worked fine the 1st time I runned it on the Server. BUT HERE'S THE PROBLEM: - I restart the server - IF I hit an ASP (plain ASP) application first, then the ASP.NET WebService, all applications work fine. - BUT I start the ASP.NET application first , then the ASP (plain ASP) application won't start. None of them work, but the WS. All ASP application show ADO error 0x80004005. I tried that restarting the server at leat 10 times. All times the behavior was the same: if ASP app was hit first, all worked fine, but wrong if the order was inverted. Any idea? WHAT should I do in order to load whatever necesary, as if the ASP app was hit first? (like simulate the hit, so all applications work as expected) Thanks in advance!

    - Password-protected directory asking for domain Help please, I'm a web programmer, and I have kind of a frustrating issue that's happening with one of my clients, and I was hoping somebody (or "somebodies") would be able to shed some light on it. One of the websites that I'm in charge of runs VB ASP on IIS, and is hosted through hostmysite.com, who handles the IIS stuff (I'm just the programmer and the tech support contact for the business). About 5 months ago, I contacted hostmysite, and they set up a password-protected directory for them, which prompts for a specific username and password to get in. So far, so good. About 2 weeks ago, I got an email from the business manager forwarding an issue that one of the users was having. She (the user) said that she's not only being prompted for a username and password, but also for a domain name. Users are supposed to only be prompted for username and password, not for domain name, and I don't even know what domain name would work. I can't reproduce the problem. I tried with IE and Firefox (running an WinXP Pro machine), and the business manager tried with IE running WinXP. Both of us are just prompted for a username and password, as we should be. I can't figure out why this user is being prompted for a domain. I've never seen anything like this before, and I can't find anything in either usenet or the web to help. I don't even know what kind of questions to ask, and it doesn't help that I can only contact the user by email, and the user is apparently very tech-unsavvy. I did manage to find out that she's running Windows ME and IE. It looks like she's manually typing in the URLs that we give her. And she has no idea how to check if she's behind a firewall. Does anybody have any idea where I might start looking for the problem? Or, at the very least, what the website might be expecting for "domain" so that the user could type it in?

Hi,

I have a windows 2003 infrastructure running iis 6.0 which is controlled by
application center 2000.

My problem is that I have setup logging on the two front end servers but
this is not working because the log files are not being created.

I have noticed that the "default web site" is logging fine and is set up in
the same way.

Any one got any ideas?

Thanks

Are you sure ACLs are ok on the directories where the log files are
created ?
