Hi,

We have an application that we developed in C#/.net 2.0. For the forum and basic content management we would like to use DNN. How can we install DNN in a sub-folder of the main site?

Eg. Our site: www.sample.com and we want to install DNN in www.sample.com/cms.

I simply copied the "Website" folder to /cms and created an "application" under the main website in IIS. However it keeps refering to the root web.config and not the one in the /cms folder. Is this the right way to do it? We are able to successfully run DNN as long as we install it the way it is suggested in the documentation.

Thanks for your help!

Yasir

When you have applications nested in IIS, the apps that are lower down in the hierarchy inherit web.config settings, HttpModules etc. from the parent. In the child web.config, you have to put a <clear /> element as the first child element of sections to cancel this behavior. Also, any assemblies that are referenced in the parent app will also need to be present in the child app's bin folder. This is because even though they are not referenced directly, until the <clear /> element is encountered they are referenced implicitly.
