I deployed my ASP.NET MVC application to my local IIS (same computer) and I'm getting
HTTP 401.0 - Unauthorized
after accessing the application through the browser.
I'm using forms authetication and on the development server it works fine.
I depolyed also a default ASP.NET MVC project and its working fine, so it must be something application related. Is there any way to get more information on this particular error ? Any log file or something. The message HTTP 401.0 - Unauthorized isn't realy helpful.
Tested on
Windows 7,IIS 7.5 and Windows Server 2008 R2 IIS 7.5
EDIT
Found some logs c:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1\ but there wasn't anything.
Looks like you need to set permissions on the folder.
Try granting permissions to the IIS APPPOOL\YourPoolUserNameHere
or to the IIS_IUSRS user group if the first one doesn't do the trick.

Problem
I am using windows authentication with MVC5 ASP.NET application. When I went to the url of the application on my intranet, I typed in (just for example), http://derp.herp.edu. As expected, it
asked me for my login credentials on the domain. I entered these.
I then get a completely blank page. No error message. Just a white screen. I then fired up the debugger in my browser and it simply states:
Failed to open http://derp.herp.edu
Details
I don't even know where to find an error for this? I have no clue to what is causing this. I've been trying to look for logs, but since I am new to IIS7.5 I am not sure I am looking at the right ones.
I just deployed the MVC5 on an IIS7.5 Windows 2008 R2 server. It is my belief that the IIS I am trying to deploy this on is on a secured VLAN.
Attempts
Launched locally on my machine IIS7.5. It works. What the heck?
Moved to wwwroot of the inetpub file to make sure file permissions are okay on server.
Associated the default web site on IIS7.5 to the domain name. I can see it on my local machine and the server in the browser.
Thus, we know the domain name works. We know that authentication is trying to work. But something is going wrong when it tries to display the MVC 5 .NET application.
I figured out the error. It was a completely silent error as the browser was just sitting there not doing anything. I started checking IIS and noticed that .NET compilation had some problems. I found the fix at ASPNET4BreakingChangesAndStuffToBeAwareOf.
I have an MVC 5 web application that runs perfectly fine in VS when I debug it but the moment I deploy to my IIS server (Windows 2012 R2) I get a 500 internal server error. I have even enabled debug=true in the web.config on the server but get no detailed error. Nothing is showing in the event log I have restarted the web site in IIS and recycled the app pool with no change. What do I have to do to figure out what is not working on the server side?
By default, IIS hides debug information from remote connections. This means you need to log on to the server and browse the site there, or you need to turn off Custom errors in your web.config (change from RemoteOnly to Off).
Many kinds of configuration errors in IIS however, will only show up properly if you browse on the server.
While I did not find exactly what was wrong. I ended up rebuilding my site from the group up and in doing so I did figure out that it was something to do with the web.config but there is so much of the web.config file I left out of the new site I don't know the exact code in it that caused the problem.
A web application with IIS 7.5, ASP.NET, MVC 4 and Windows Identity Foundation is throwing following error:
Error HTTP 405.0 - Method Not Allowed
Module: StaticFileModule
Notification: ExecuteRequestHandler
Controller: StaticFile
The web application logins first through Windows Identity Foundation on a remote site. This login works fine, but when it redirects you to the local MVC application, the local IIS gives that error.
I tried disabling WebDav and configuring WebDav for all verbs but no luck.
Completely reinstall IIS. This will delete all bad configurations.
You'll have to reconfigure your app to work with WIF.
I'm trying to deploy a MVC 3 site to IIS 7.5. The deafult route works but all links return a 404 error including if I manually enter the link for the homepage.
Details:
MVC 3 to IIS 7.5
Windows Server 2008 R2
MVC 3 is installed on server
Default Web Site/PaedPhysiotherapy_Uat
.net 4 is installed
DeafultApplicationPool used
App pool is .net4 and running in integrated mode
Custom error are turned off
If I deploy to a new website on the same IIS box using different ports, e.g. "http://newsite:81 which not under the default website everything works fine.
Even in the absence of routing, IIS will redirect requests for "/" to "/Default.aspx". In an MVC app, there's a Default.aspx which manually finds the MVC handler and invokes it. So that's probably why your home link works.
Your other pages must go through routing. In integrated mode there must be an IIS handler for this. Check the ExtensionlessUrlHandler in the IIS handler mappings. Compare that and other handlers with the sites which work.
At a guess, if this works when deploying to the root of a site then it looks like an absolute path has sneaked in. Perhaps somewhere this is a missing ~ in front of a path e.g.
/MyController
instead of
~/MyController
Also, you did remember to convert /PaedPhysiotherapy_Uat to an application?
I have joined a team developing an ASP.NET MVC version 1 application. I run this app on my local machine using IIS version 7.5. My operating system is Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition. I use Visual Studio 2008 SP1 for development.
One of the controllers in this app is called ReportsController. The route table entries for this controller use 'Reports' as the controller name part. The problem I have is that, using IIS 7.5 on my local machine, I simply cannot access any of the Reports action methods. If I try to access, say, '/Reports/Index' from Chrome or Firefox, I get a 401 Unauthorized response (as seen using Fiddler) and the browser displays its username/password entry dialog.
Please note the following:
All other non-Report pages in the application work correctly.
If I add a breakpoint to Application_BeginRequest, it is not hit when requesting a Reports page.
If I change the Reports routing entries in the route table registration code so that I have to access paths like '/Reportss/Index' (note the extra 's') then these Reports pages work correctly.
I have tried deleting then recreating my Web application in IIS.
The Reports pages work fine if I run the application using the Visual Studio 2008 development server (Cassini).
There is no directory called Reports in the application directory.
The Reports pages work correctly on our UAT environment, also under IIS 7.5.
I have reviewed my IIS setting several times, including comparing them with those on UAT, and I can't see a problem.
While I can use Cassini to access the Reports pages, I would really like to understand what is causing this issue.
If you have Reporting Services installed on your machine. try to create a new web site and use it. If you have SSRS installed on your machine it uses /reports for hosting reports.
I have had problems using the directory name 'Reports' at the root of a .net 2.0 website on IIS 7.5. It generates a 503 Error, indicating that there is an error at the system level before IIS tries to serve the page. I am not sure if reporting services is installed on my server. I just changed the directory name, all links and everything worked.
I have the exact same issue in my MVC Application with reporting services installed on the same server where code was deployed. I have changed the Reporting Manager URL in "SQL Server Reporting Services Configuration" which was hostName/Reports and assigned a new name i.e. SSRSReports so the virtual directory is now hostName/SSRSReports.
Now my application as well as SSRS Reports are working as expected.
