1. web.config files are inheritable.Then is there no way to do this?
So in your case when you have www.stf.com/stage/ ASP.NET takes web.config
from www.stf.com folder and merges it with www.stf.com/stage/ folder. That
is why you get an error "The module 'ScollKeeperModule' is already in the
application and cannot be added again"
I need to have ScrollKeeper in my system but I need to call it both ways: as
a website (www.stfstage.com) and as a virtual directory (www.stf.com/stage).
Also, I don't have a problem with any of the other entries in the web.config
files, such as the appSettings:
<appSettings>
<add key="ConnectionString" value="Persist Security Info=False;Data
Source=xx;Initial Catalog=yy;User ID=zz;Password=ff;"/>
</appSettings>
In my case, I have a different database for my live application and one for
my development site. In this case, which one would it use? The one from
www.stf.com or the one from the www.stf.com/stage folder?
2. When you go by www.stf.com/stage/ your root is considered to be
www.stf.com and /stage/ is subfolder. so when you refer to your controls
as '/skins/mth/MainPage.ascx' you actually refer to
www.stf.com/skins/mth/MainPage.ascx which is another application and you
can not do that. And ASP.NET pollitely tells you about it.
You should use ~/ so it will be '~/skins/mth/MainPage.ascx'. ~ symbol
means in root of application. So in your case the ASP.NET will translate
it as www.stf.com/stage/skins/mth/MainPage.ascx
You can use ~ anywere in a code that processed by ASP.NET
Example:
<img src="~/myimge.gif"> -- will not work. The ASP.NET does not parse
plain HTML.
<img src="~/myimge.gif" runat=server> --will work correctly. ASP.NET
parses out any tag that marked as runat=server.
That seems to work as you say.
I did do a trace on this page and here is what it is showing:
PATH_INFO /stage/JobSeeker/displayCompanyJobs.aspx
PATH_TRANSLATED
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\StfStage\JobSeeker\displayCompanyJobs.aspx
So the system knows what the path is so I am not sure why I need the "~" but
it does work. As you say if I do:
<img src="~/myimge.gif">
It doesn't work and shows as a broken gif. But
<img src="/myimge.gif">
does seem to work and knows to look at the root of the Application. I would
have thought that .net objects would do the same (would have been more
consistent). I would have thought that you would use the "~" for the
exceptions. Oh well.
The other thing that doesn't seem to work is:
<img src="../../myimge.gif">
Which works fine if I call it from www.stfstage.com but why wouldn't it work
here? It has nothing to do with the root of the Application.
Thanks,
Tom

I have a site www.stf.com and a site www.stfstage.com (where I do all my
testing).
The problem is that www.stfstage.com is only internal and I need to get
access from the outside (without creating a new domain).
I tried to create a Virtual directory inside my stf site so that I would
access it like: www.stf.com/stage/.
I run as www.stfstage.com fine and have for a long time.
But if I try to do it as www.stf.com/stage/ I get the error:

Scrollkeeper is apparently causing the problem but only as a Virtual
directory. It works fine when I access it as www.stfstage.com.
If I take out the ScrollKeeper sections it seems to have a problem with
virtual paths and gets an error:
***************************************************************************************
The virtual path '/skins/mth/MainPage.ascx' maps to another application,
which is not allowed.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the
current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information
about the error and where it originated in the code.

***************************************************************************************
My code that is causing the problem is:
tePage = "/skins/" & session("CompanyInitials") & "/" & "MainPage" &
".ascx"
pageControl = LoadControl(thePage)
How can I make this work in my scenario - or can I?
Thanks,
Tom
