installation issue .ashx

 

I am trying to setup Mojoportal on a new host.  They have been helpful in getting full trust and permissions set properly, but am still being plagued by a strange issue.  I have spoken to the host and they say that the .ashx extension is configured properly  but I am getting the following error in the logs:

   2009-09-09 18:22:29,937 ERROR mojoPortal.Web.Global - 173.50.150.159-af-ZA - /Data/Sites/1/skins/graformix-orange/csshandler.ashx?skin=graformix-orange System.Web.HttpException: The file '/Data/Sites/1/skins/graformix-orange/csshandler.ashx' does not exist. at System.Web.UI.Util.CheckVirtualFileExists(VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultInternal(VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultWithNoAssert(HttpContext context, VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResult(HttpContext context, VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.UI.SimpleHandlerFactory.System.Web.IHttpHandlerFactory2.GetHandler(HttpContext context, String requestType, VirtualPath virtualPath, String physicalPath) at System.Web.UI.SimpleHandlerFactory.GetHandler(HttpContext context, String requestType, String virtualPath, String path) at System.Web.HttpApplication.MaterializeHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) 2009-09-09 18:27:37,187 INFO mojoPortal.Web.Global - Global.asax.cs Application_End

This is causing the site to show up without styles.  I am running IIS7 in Integrated mode.  MS SQL is the backend and seems to be working fine.  I checked the skins directory in the sites folder and it looks to be intact.  The other issue I am seeing is that it is taking the admin@admin.com admin login, but then saying I am not logged in.  Anything sounding familiar to anyone?  I am running with the latest posted codeplex code.

 

Thanks,

Nathan

Re: installation issue .ashx

FYI I do get a 404 trying to browse directly to the .ashx file.  Also This is a new install, so web.config should be OOTB.

 

Thanks for any assistance!

Re: installation issue .ashx

Another added note, the robots.ashx file is served properly, so it does not appear to be an extension problem.

Re: installation issue .ashx

Hi Nathan,

The difference is that robots.ashx is a physical file but csshandler.ashx is not, it is declared in Web.config in 2 places, first in the system.web.handlers section which is used in IIS 6 or IIS 7 Classic mode

<add verb="*" path="*csshandler.ashx" type="mojoPortal.Web.UI.CssHandler, mojoPortal.Web" />

and also further down it is declared in the system.webserver.handlers section used in IIS 7 Integrated mode

<add name="CssHandler" verb="*" path="*csshandler.ashx" type="mojoPortal.Web.UI.CssHandler, mojoPortal.Web" preCondition="integratedMode" />

It should work out of the box unless they have it configured somehow to prevent registering handlers this way.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: installation issue .ashx

They looked at it again and figured out it was some sort of permissions issue on their side.  Thanks for the help!
