### Server requesting password in an insecure manner ###

Discussion in 'Visual Studio' started by navalshipc1, Feb 3, 2013.

  1. Hello to Everyone,

    My website address is http://navalshipcode.org/ .
    I have it for a few years.

    Recently I did some superficial update to a few webpages with Vistual Studio 2008. I then clicked "Publish Web Site". A Windows Security dialog popup, it says "The server navalshipcode.org at navalshipcode.org 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)."

    So I keep key-in the username and password to the dialog and click "OK". The dialog just keeps poping up. After many many times, I click "Cancel". And the update of the website did not get publish.

    My website had moved to another server a few months ago. I wonder do I need to set something in my control panel?

    My website is still not got updated. I need to solve out this problem ASAP.

    Look forward to hear a suggestion from anyone of you.

    Thank you,

    Waiman

    I believe you may have migrated down to our IIS 6 server correct? If this is the case then web deploy will no longer work on our IIS 6 server. You will need to use FTP in your Visual Studio program. Please read our knowledge base article on how to deploy a web project in Visual Studio 2008 here: http://support.discountasp.net/KB/a...ual-studio-20082005-visual-web-developer.aspx

    Please be sure to read the knowledge base article carefully because you may be using the incorrect settings.
