I hope someone can help me. I am just learning how to use ASP with Visual Studio and I am having a lot of trouble trying to make a subdomain work. Until this day, aslong as a subdomain is added correctly into a server it works without anything to do from the user part (subdomain.domain.net)but with discountasp the story is different: I am told that in order for it to work I have to add a scriptto my default page, which can contain nothing but the script, and it's the script that will call the requested URL by any user. This is thescrip: The following is a sample script that you can use to redirect a subdomain. You will need to place it as default document on your document root. <% If InStr( UCase(Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")), UCase("subdomain1.YourHostedDomainName.com") ) > 0 Then Response.Redirect("/subdomain1") ElseIf InStr( UCase(Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")), UCase("subdomain2.YourHostedDomainName.com") ) > 0 Then Response.Redirect("/subdomain2") ElseIf InStr( UCase(Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")), UCase("subdomain3.YourHostedDomainName.com") ) > 0 Then Response.Redirect("/subdomain3/home.asp") End If %> When I asked for help they told me they don't offer any help with scripts and I should try the forum. The original site is at a different server right now but I have to change because they don't offer ASP hosting and it's a must that I make the transition to asp.net, and I do have the subdomain working without any problem (very lousy design). I have copied everything to the new server and thetest website is at http://iphixnet000.web703.discountasp.net/The test subdomain is at http://iphixnet000.web703.discountasp.net/gl/The subdomain (when it finally goes online) should be gl.iphix.net but I can't make the change from one server to the other until I am totally sure it will work because most users call the subdomain URL in order to access it and it's quite busy Iknow you guys are experts and I am just trying to design and makethis website work and put it online, so I need someone's help!! My questions are: Should the default page be default.aspx or can it be index.aspx? Can the extension be .aspx or it must be .asp? Does it go on the <head> part of the page? How should I enclose the script? Would <script type="text/C#"></script> work? I am not sure if I make any sense, I would really appreciate any help I can get. Thanks a lot
* Should the default page be default.aspx or can it be index.aspx? Yes. It depends on what you set the default document to be. By default, both should work/ * Can the extension be .aspx or it must be .asp? I think both should work * Does it go on the <head> part of the page? Not sure i understand this q!! * How should I enclose the script? Would <script type='text/C#'></script> work? No. use <% %> Bruce DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
Thank you so much for replying, Bruce. My question about the <head> is because there is also the , or am I on the wrong page? Is there a way I can try the script before I change servers?My sitepage is at http://iphixnet000.web703.discountasp.net, how could I test it? Thanks!
I'm having similar issues. I'm new to ASP.NET and what I want to do is as follows. Can someone let me know if this is the write course of action. Thanks Lets say my domain is www.domain.com and I have a simple asp.net 3.5 website in the root. I also have another website in a sub folder called "folder2". what I want is instead of going to www.mydomain.com/folder2 to access this website, I want to instead go to folder2.mydomain.com How do I do this? In C# context. Thanks Callon
