Any workaround to deleting subdirectories under web application root?

Discussion in 'ASP.NET 2.0' started by nothingdotnet, Jun 24, 2010.

  1. In ASP.Net 2.0 and onwards, deleting a subdirectory anywhere under the web application causes the app to get recycled. Everything I've read online suggests that the only way around this is to created the subdirectories outside the web application directory hierarchy.

    How can this be done in the shared environment at DASP? My application needs to create/delete some folders programmatically.

    Thanks!

    If your application is in the root directory of your account, I'm afraid there isn't any way around it. You can't do anything "above" or outside your root.
