I have a grails app running on a URL something like -
http://{ip address}/appName
Now I am trying to have a sub-folder of my domain pointing to that app server.
Something like -
http://www.example.com/subfolder/appName => http://{ip address}/appName
When I load the url with subfolder the grails app responds properly and redirects to the first page of the app (as expected). But the problem is - all other URL's in the page (controllers, css, image files, etc.) ignores the "subfolder" at the end of the URL.
Like, instead of trying to point to
http://www.example.com/social/appName/{controllerName}
http://www.example.com/social/appName/{cssFileName}
etc
Everything points to
http://www.example.com/appName/{controllerName}
http://www.example.com/appName/{cssFileName}
etc
I have tried modifying grails.serverURL and grails.app.context. But still the same problem.
You could try:
grails.app.context="/social"

I'm currently resuming an existing project and I'm facing path issues with a twig (the project use no framework for twig templates). I'm trying to run this project locally with wampserver. I defined my new base-path so that wamp can run it but it can't redirect me correctly when I'm using forms for example. It can't also find paths to images.
For example, I can try to connect using the URL:
localhost/autres/admin_LP/admin
but when I submit I'm redirected to:
localhost/admin/dashboard
instead of:
localhost/autres/admin_LP/admin/dashboard
In other terms, the part "/autres/admin_LP" is missing.
It's the same issue for images, the path is wrong:
incorrect path for image
The image path should be:
localhost/autres/admin_LP/Web/template/View/Easylife.png
instead of:
localhost/Web/template/View/Easylife.png
Apparently, I correctly modified the .htaccess since I'm directed towards the connection page. But since the project uses twig templates, I think I missed some twig configuration so that it can find the right path.
I'm a rookie with twig templates so if you have any clue about how I can properly run my project locally, I'm more than interested!
After publishing a MVC5 web application of mine to my IIS server (Individual User Accounts), it would seem that the URL is accessed incorrectly.
During debug, it would be e.g http://localhost:1234/api/Account/UserInfo?=XXXXX
The debug works just fine. The only issue kicks in after I've published it via my IIS7 server.
After publishing and using Google Chrome's console, it would appear that the page is requesting for a resource at mydomainname.com/api/Account/UserInfo?=XXXX instead of mydomainname.com/WEBAPPLICATIONNAME/api/Account/UserInfo?=XXXX.
My best guess is to modify the URLs in /Scripts/app/app.datamodel.js but it would just cause more parsing problems.
I've searched around and can't seem to find any related problems. I hope someone here will be able to lend a hand.
Look like you are using relative path like "/api/Account/UserInfo". Instead i'll recommend you to use #Url.Content("/api/Account/UserInfo"). This will solve your problem
Explanation
In local system when we run application in WebDev server it never have sub folder (like WEBAPPLICATIONNAME) therefore you relative path work correctly. but when you host your application in IIS under Default website in another new website /Virtual folder (like 'WEBAPPLICATIONNAME') then "/api/Account/UserInfo" fall back to Default Website because for '/' in starting. #Url.Content or #Url.Action make sure to add virtual directory name, hence changing your path to "/WEBAPPLICATIONNAME/api/Account/UserInfo" in IIS.
My images were all held in the app itself and so were referenced with /images/12345.jpg which in some places has been hard coded into the content of the cms, with or without the full url.
The images have now been moved to s3 and so I want to add a redirect for urls that are of the following formats:
/images/12345.jpg|png|gif
or
http://www.example.com/images/12345.jpg|png|gif
(but only for only numeric filenames)
and point them to
http://my.images.images.s3.amazonaws.com/540x310/12345.jpg|png|gif
I currently have
use Rack::Rewrite do
rewrite %r{images\/(\d*.)(jpe?g|png|gif)$}, 'http://my.images.images.s3.amazonaws.com/540x310/$1$2'
end
But this doesn't seem quite right.
UPDATE------
of course the URL in the source doesn't change, I should have realised that. Clicking the link directly returns an error:
No route matches [GET] "/http://my.images.images.s3.amazonaws.com/540x310/13135.jpeg"
(note the leading slash)
So the rewrite is working but it thinks it should be routing to an internal link not an external URL.
UPDATE2------
Changing to
r302 %r{(?:images\/)(\d*.jpe?g|png|gif)$}, "http://my.images.images.s3.amazonaws.com/540x310/$1"
will now redirect if I go to
http://www.example.com/images/13135.jpeg
but is not rendering the images in the site itself.
this was caused by the url on the localhost still pointing to the live url and therefore the 301 rewrite never being called.
So the local deployment had the live URL hardcoded into the page, i was then changing this and pointing my browser at localhost.
In the page though the old URL remained which meant the page was looking to the live server for a possible redirect which had never been dpeloyed
I have an unusual circumstance where our web server inserts a folder into the url path before loading the page. Let me give you an example:
The app is called equipment and if I were to run it on a normal server setup, it would look like:
www.site.com\equipment\home\index
BUT when I run it on our server, it inserts "idn" in the url:
www.site.com\idn\equipment\home\index
The messes up my relative references. The MVC functions want to redirect to use "\equipment\" instead of "\idn\equipment\". This happens with Scripts.Render(), Return View(), etc.
Also, I can't hardcode the "idn" into my urls b/c then it is no longer relative and it won't work on my dev box or test servers b/c they don't have a "idn" subfolder in localhost.
I also tried functions such as Request.ApplicationPath and what not but none of them return the "idn" in the result.
Is there way to MVC to know that this "idn" was inserted into the url and account for it?
Thanks!
Create your application on the test/production server in the idn folder, then it all works.
I am developing an ASP .Net MVC application and on my dev machine, the application runs as expected and, more importantly, the images mentioned in the CSS file are displaying correctly too.
However, when I publish this application to a testing server, the web app runs fine, but the images are not shown.
If I modify the URL in IE when testing the output from the test server, the image is returned, meaning that the file is there but it just won't appear within the view page when using the site normally.
I have tried alternative servers too, but the result is the same.
To confirm, here's a line from the CSS page referencing the image...
background-image: url('/Content/Images/Logo/myLogo.jpg');
Any suggestions?
Cheers

The URLs are not correct, likely due to the fact that you are publishing in a subfolder and so they are no longer at the root of the server. I usually use Url.Content( "~/Content/Images/..." ) to build the url instead of hard-coding it. That way it will take into account the routes when building the path.
Example:
<img src='<%= Url.Content( "~/Content/Images/banner.jpg" ) %>' alt="Banner" />
I had the same issue, but I found the reason why it was forcing authentication on the Contents folder.
When a user is not logged in yet, they are classified as Anonymous Authentication. In IIS7 (which is what I am using, guessing it is the same in IIS6) you need to open the authentication window in features view. Then edit the Anonymous Authentication, to use your application pool identity, or the default one, just make sure that user has permissions to read in that folder.
That fixed it for me, hope it works for you.
Possible relative paths are wrong...Possible that they are wrong for CSS file itself. You can use FireBug to see if CSS loaded correctly, then you can examine image request, often in such situations you will see red(error) items. This could help to localize problem.
