Access is denied error

[danhoe]

Hi,

I have created a web application named "app2". When I tried to access the aplication using http://www.myweb.com/app2/default.aspx, it should redirect me to the login page.

But, insted it prompts out asking for ID and Password (like windows Authentication).
"The server myweb.com at myweb.com requires a username and password.

Warning: This server is requesting that your username and password be sent in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection)."

When I click on Cancel, it shows error "Access is denied".

Access is denied.
Description: An error occurred while accessing the resources required to serve this request. The server may not be configured for access to the requested URL.

Error message 401.2.: You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied. Contact the Web server's administrator for help.

I had checked through the KB & also ASP.Net forum. I had checked that the permission setting is allow for read/write for anonymous users.
I am using authentication mode = "Form". Webconfig file as below:

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="MyWebAuth" path="/" loginUrl="Login.aspx" protection="All" timeout="30">
<credential infor goes here...> </forms>
</authentication>

<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
</authorization>

Please advice. Is that any setting that I am not doing right?

1. Users need only to log in to access app2. Others pages are uncontrolled.
2. I tried to change the webconfig to
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="myWebAuth" path="/" loginUrl="http://myweb.com/Login.aspx" protection="All" timeout="30">
<credentials goes here...>
</credentials>
</forms>
</authentication>

I created a new login.aspx at root level, instead of sub-folder (/app2/login.aspx). It did not prompt for ID & password. But, I still cannot redirect user to the /app2. Looks like I have to change the codes in /app2 to accept the user as logged in user...

Is that a website can only have one login page? How can I do if I want only the user to be vlidated in /app2, using the login page in the app2 itself, without prompting me for ID & password?

Please help... Thank you
