Setting-up another web app in a sub-folder

  1. Dear Forum

    I am trying to set-up Screwturn Wiki in a sub-directory on my http://iscepublishing.com site. I have set the Wiki folder as an application using the discountasp web application tool. However, it seems that when I try to browse the Wiki the (sub) application does not 'see' any of the namspace dll's in the Wiki application's bin folder, nor does it see any of the classes defined in the app_code folder. However, when I move these files into the bin and app_code folders of the parent application they are found.

    So my question is: given that the Wiki folder is set as an application, why are none of the standard folders (such as app_code and bin) 'seen' when looking for namespaces and class definition?

    I want to keep the Wiki files separate in their own folder and not move them over to the parent bin and app_code folders for example.

    Is therean entry I should be making in the sub-app's web.config file?

    Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

    Kind regards and happy new year!

    The behavior you describe should only happen when the directory is not setup as an application.

    I would try remove and recreate the application.

  3. Hi Bruce


    I thought I'd already tried that, but doing it again changed something, and allowed me to move on and find a number of web.config inheritance issues that once solved got it working just fine.


    Thanks for the suggestion.
