We have upgraded to dnn from an old asp cms system

as part of our company website the were several sub domains that run .net 1.1 apps.

so for example we had www.ourcompany.com/vault/vault.asmx

these other services  are mostly web service in nature. the problem we are having is that the dnn website is working fine but all the other apps have stopped. when they are called instead of reading the web config ie for vault like the example above it is reading the web config for dnn which is in the higher root. when it is reading the web config it is failing on the required permission setting which think is new to 2.0 and the virtual folder is set 1.1

so how can i get iis or dnn to know that it should be reading the config file for vault in this example and to ignore the dnn website config. the issue of course is that dnn is version 2.0 net and our vault software is 1.1

i know that i could change and create a whole new website in iis and have a different dns entry so vault.ourcompany.com but that is not an ideal situation.

i hope i have explained the issue. any help on this would be appreciated

You will need to mark the Vault folder as an application in IIS. Once this is done, IIS will start using the web.config located in that folder. However, you will then be faced with a new problem. The impact of HttpModules/Handlers loaded through web.config is cumulative in a hierarchy of web applications. As a result, you will have to copy many of the DotNetNuke assemblies into the Vault applications "bin" folder even though they are not being used. This is due to the way ASP.Net processes web.config files.

I am not sure if ASP.Net 2.0 and 1.1 apps can be mixed in a hierarchy, but in theory it should work. If not, you should consider flagging the Vault app as 2.0. Most ASP.net 1.1 apps will work without changes under 2.0.
