mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

This is probably something stupid I'm doing since I don't see anyone else talking about it, but I just updated from SVN and I'm getting the "can't load project..." error because it's configured to use IIS and I don't have it installed. (I just Visual Stuido's web server for development.) It seems like I've seen this before but I don't remember and the error doesn't turn anything up on the search page.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

John

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

Hi John,

My mistake, sorry, I was debugging in IIS yesterday and forgot to change it back to VS Web server before merging to trunk.

I just fixed it so if you do svn update again it should work now.

Best,

Joe

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

When I try to switch mojoportal.Web to use IIS debugging, I get the following error: http://bit.ly/auAXiI   Any suggestions?

P.S. I'm running VS2010 and IIS 7.5 on Windows 7 Enterprise.

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

The error message in the screen shot is telling you everything you need to know. You need to go into Control Panel > Programs > windows features and install the IIS 6 compatibility stuff. Additionally to debug in IIS with VS you need to close out of VS, then right click the shortcut in the windows Start menu for VS and choose run as administrator.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

VS is running as an admin.  As for IIS 6 Compatibility stuff, I don't see anything like that in the windows features list.

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

It going to be deep under the IIS stuff. Find the IIS stuff and look deeper.

Best,

Joe

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

Ah, got it - sorry about that, I think I need to take a break.

Hmm... there seems to be something wrong with web.config even though I just pulled the latest source from codeplex: http://fwd4.me/3Ci

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

Hi,

I recommend watch this video:

http://www.mojoportal.com/manual-installation-in-iis-75-with-mssql.aspx

you need to use a .NET 4 application pool (not shown in video), you need to find the identity of the application pool, and whatever user is the identity you need to configure file system permissions for. It needs read permission on the entire Web folder and it needs full control on /App_Data and /Data folders.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

It looks like I've been able to get past that problem.  I had to set the server to run the user of the Application Pool instead of IUSR.  Now, I'm looking at an even weirder error :) http://fwd4.me/Djk

Re: mojoportal.Web configured to use IIS

I've never encountered that error, but there are lots of google results for you to research.

I would set the application pool identity to Network Service and then configure permissions for Network Service as discussed in the video I pointed you to. I don't know about this error but it sounds like it broke after you changed some configuration.
