Adding a virtual directory to DNN 

My company wants to have a page on our corporate site that is totally different from the look and feel on other pages. I tried creating a virtual directory named "test" and gave it read access, etc. A screenshot of the properties is at the end.

After I did that I created a Default.aspx page that is extremely basic (just is a Hello World, html at bottom).

Once I did that, I went to the page... and it then immediately redirected me to the site's homepage. I really, really need to get past this road block and I'm hoping there's a way. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Andrew

Default.aspx code

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>

<html>
<head>
<title>ASP.NET Hello World</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

<p><%= "Hello World!" %></p>

</body>
</html>

Re: Adding a virtual directory to DNN 

I believe your issue is that DNN's HttpModule is intercepting your call, and redirecting to the main site.  You will need to clear DNN's HttpModules in your virtual directory's web.config.  It is the same procedure as setting up a virtual directory for a web service, as this blog post from Chris Hammond talks about.

Let me know if that works for you,

Re: Adding a virtual directory to DNN 

I was actually able to figure it out based on some older threads...

  1. Create application for the virtual directory
  2. In the web.config file there's gonna be a number of changes...

Within <pages>...

        <namespaces>
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Services.Localization" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Entities.Users" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Common" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Data" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Framework" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Modules" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Security" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Services" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.UI" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Common.Utilities" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions" />
          <remove namespace="DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs" />
        </namespaces>

This is what my <httpHandlers> looks like:

      <httpHandlers>
        <remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/>
        <remove verb="*" path="*.captcha.aspx"/>
        <remove verb="*" path="LinkClick.aspx"/>
        <remove verb="*" path="RSS.aspx"/>
        <add verb="*" path="*.asmx" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
        <add verb="*" path="*_AppService.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
        <add verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" validate="false"/>
      </httpHandlers>

This is what my <httpModules> looks like:

      <httpModules>
        <remove name="UrlRewrite" />
        <remove name="Exception" />
        <remove name="UsersOnline" />
        <remove name="DNNMembership" />
        <remove name="Personalization" />
        <remove name="Compression"/>
        <remove name="RequestFilter"/>
      </httpModules>

After those changes, my page was able to work flawlessly.
