I have a HttpHandler for an asp.net mvc application. I've tested the handler for asp.net and asp.net mvc 3 applications and everything works as expected.
When I use the HttpHandler in an Azure based asp.net mvc 3 application the 'ProcessRequest' method is NOT being called - I can see the HttpHandler being created.
I have the following web.config and this works for a standard asp.net mvc 3 app:
<system.web>
<httpHandlers>
<add type="TestWebRole.Infrastructure.HttpHandlers.EPubHandler"
path="*.epub"
verb="*" />
</httpHandlers>
</system.web>
<system.webServer>
<validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" />
<handlers>
<add name="EPubHandler"
type="TestWebRole.Infrastructure.HttpHandlers.EPubHandler"
path="*.epub"
verb="*"
resourceType="Unspecified"
allowPathInfo="false"
modules="IsapiModule"
scriptProcessor="%path%\aspnet_isapi.dll"/>
</handlers>
</system.webServer>
I also have the following statement in the global.asax.cs file to specify ignoring asp.net ,mvc routing for the extension type:
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.epub/{*pathInfo}");
What do I have to configure to get this working when running in Azure - locally or deployed into the cloud?
Just to try, why don't you remove the httpHandlers section under system.web and leave only that in the system.webServer. And also strip all the unnecessary attributes from the one under system.webServer (scriptProcessor, modules, allowPathInfo).
And also you may check for any uncought exception, event log entry, anything showing some kind of error.

We had some ASP.NET 3.5 and ASP.NET 4 webform websites with Custom UrlRewrite which programmatically map SEO friendly urls (http://example.com/key/This-is-sample-text-in-url.html) to physical address (http://example.com/key.aspx)
These websites worked perfect in IIS 6 with C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll for 3.5 and c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll for 4.0 in application extension mapping window.
after migrating to windows 2012 all 3.5 websites work using classic .NET 3.5 AppPool and this statement in handlers section:
<remove name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard" />
<add name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard" path="*"
verb="*" type="" modules="IsapiModule"
scriptProcessor="C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll"
resourceType="Unspecified"
requireAccess="None"
allowPathInfo="false"
preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv2.0,bitness64"
responseBufferLimit="4194304" />
I expected using the same Classic .NET 4.0 AppPool and the following handler should work but didn't:
<remove name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard" />
<add name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard" path="*"
verb="*" type="" modules="IsapiModule"
scriptProcessor="C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll"
resourceType="Unspecified"
requireAccess="None"
allowPathInfo="false"
preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.0,bitness64"
responseBufferLimit="4194304" />
I still get HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found
Module: IIS Web Core
Notification: MapRequestHandler
Handler: StaticFile
Error Code: 0x80070002
I cant downgrade website and couldn't find anything useful to find the source of error. Site log file do not provide any details, no errors in event logs.
I suspected there may be a conflict in handler mappings and tried to disable irrelevant or suspicious entries via Web.Config but there was no change.
I don't know but maybe ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard is not able to catch the request and finally process ends up with StaticFile handler, though in ordered list, ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard is on top and StaticFile is the last.
I appreciate if anybody has a solution to this.
p.s. in the sample above target page works i.e. url to (http://example.com/key.aspx)
Solved
This is in case anybody face the same situation
The handler I added was correct, but only for 64bit applications, so when I added 32 bit version of handler problem solved. As I had set Any Platform in configuration Manager I didn't think this may be a platform matter.
<remove name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard" />
<add name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard" path="*"
verb="*" type="" modules="IsapiModule"
scriptProcessor="C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll"
resourceType="Unspecified"
requireAccess="None"
allowPathInfo="false"
preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.0,bitness64"
responseBufferLimit="4194304" />
<remove name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard-32" />
<add name="ASP.Net-ISAPI-Wildcard-32" path="*"
verb="*" type="" modules="IsapiModule"
scriptProcessor="C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll"
resourceType="Unspecified"
requireAccess="None"
allowPathInfo="false"
preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.0,bitness32"
responseBufferLimit="4194304" />
When I set runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests=false to increase MVC performance the MVC stops executing Actions like [ActionName("membership.asp")]. I get 404 error on IIS7.5.
Any idea how to solve this?
I have found the solution by myself. Just need to add extension to web.config file which should be handled by MVC.
<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="false" />
<handlers>
<add name="ClassicASP" path="*.asp" verb="*" type="System.Web.Routing.UrlRoutingModule" resourceType="File" preCondition="integratedMode" />
</handlers>
I would like to use ASP.Net Web API (http://asp.net/Webapi) in sitecore. I keep getting 404 when i try to browse the API's though i added the
<add name="ExtensionlessUrlHandler-ISAPI-4.0_32bit" path="*." verb="GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG,PUT,DELETE,PATCH,OPTIONS" modules="IsapiModule" scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll" preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.0,bitness32" responseBufferLimit="0" />
<add name="ExtensionlessUrlHandler-ISAPI-4.0_64bit" path="*." verb="GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG,PUT,DELETE,PATCH,OPTIONS" modules="IsapiModule" scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll" preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.0,bitness64" responseBufferLimit="0" />
<add name="ExtensionlessUrlHandler-Integrated-4.0" path="*." verb="GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG,PUT,DELETE,PATCH,OPTIONS" type="System.Web.Handlers.TransferRequestHandler" preCondition="integratedMode,runtimeVersionv4.0" />
</handlers>
in web.config. Referred the necessary assemblies. But, stil cant get through..
I am using web application project. I did few samples in web application project, they work fine. but, integrating with sitecore giving me hard time.
any inputs please..?
thanks
This could be Sitecore being a wise guy and interrupting your requests to try and find the URL in the content tree.
If you know the URLs you are going to be calling (or part of the paths to them) you can add them to the IgnoreUrlPrefixes setting in the config.
See nice little post here:
http://sitecoreblog.alexshyba.com/2011/05/teach-sitecore-to-ignore-directory.html
If you are creating webapi routes, you could also make a step in the RequestPipeline, that aborts the pipeline if it finds a route that matches the current URL
public override void Process(Sitecore.Pipelines.HttpRequest.HttpRequestArgs args)
{
RouteData routeData = RouteTable.Routes.GetRouteData(new HttpContextWrapper(args.Context));
if (routeData != null)
{
HttpContext.Current.RemapHandler(routeData.RouteHandler.GetHttpHandler(HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext));
args.AbortPipeline();
}
}
With that you could set it right after it resolves the database and the site, so you can use Sitecore.Context to handle database access and etc.
I have some custom Html helpers for my Asp.net MVC 3 app. In the main application they work correctly as I have put the following in my Web.Config:
<pages clientIDMode="AutoID">
<namespaces>
<add namespace="System.Web.Helpers" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Ajax" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Html" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Routing" />
<add namespace="System.Web.WebPages"/>
<add namespace="WebDibaelsaMVC.Utils.HtmlHelpers" />
<add namespace="WebDibaelsaMVC.Utils.HtmlHelpers.DTOs" />
</namespaces>
</pages>
but I have now created an area and to make my custom helpers work I have to add a using in every page where I use them. Is there a way to add the default namespaces for that area?
If you are using Razor you might need to add the reference to the <namespaces> section in the ~/Views/web.config and ~/Areas/YourAreaName/Views/web.config and not the main ~/web.config file. Also make sure you recompile the project, open close the view, maybe even restart Visual Studio for changes to take effect (in terms of Intellisense, it will work if you run the project).
I'm new to ASP.NET and have just starting to learn ASP.NET MVC 3. I've started a new ASP.NET MVC 3 project using the default template, which already has most of the membership stuff already configured. Now I'm trying to understand what is really going on behind the scenes.
I've found that default template defines an IMembershipService interface which is implemented by the AccountMembershipService class which basically just wraps a System.Web.Security.MembershipProvider. From the comments in the code is sounds like this abstraction is done to facilitate unit testing.
The default MembershipProvider is set in the Web.config file. My project, which was created from the default template, it is set to the SqlMembershipProvider.
<membership>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="ApplicationServices"
enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false"
maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" minRequiredPasswordLength="6" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" passwordAttemptWindow="10"
applicationName="/" />
</providers>
</membership>
This references a connection string in the Web.config file, which references a SQL Express database "aspnetdb.mdf".
<connectionStrings>
<add name="ApplicationServices"
connectionString="data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
When I first created my project there was no aspnet.mdf file. But after running my app and registering a new user this file was automatically generated tables and all. What's going on here? What creates this file and specified the tables that should be created?
These are created by the SqlMembershipProvider class. If you'd like, you can customize your config file to use a different membership provider or to tell it what existing database to use.
Use this tool to add the appropriate tables, etc to your existing SQL Server installation: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229862(v=VS.100).aspx
