Previously we setup our DNN installation to http://localhost/mywebsite and upload the contents, pictures and etc. Some of the HTML contents's picture is pointing to the resource's relative path (" /mywebsite/Portals/0/images/Pic1.jpg").

When we planned to move it to the live server, IIS 7's Default Web Sites set the path to point at the D:\mywebsite, the content would not displays the pictures correctly due to the virtual folder "mywebsite" is not there anymore.

I tried to create another virtual folder "mywebsite" under it and point it to D:\mywebsite, IIS7 will prompt me the error of "Compilation error" due to that virtual folder consists of the "web.config" file.

My current setup is

- Default Web Sites - D:\mywebsite

- - mywebsite (virtual folder) - D:\mywebsite\Portals

- - - Portals (virtual folder) - D:\mywebsite\Portals

Then the website is running fine. But I believe this is not the right way to configure the mywebsite to point at D:\mywebsite\Portals which acts as dummy folder. Any suggestions to fix this?

Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. As our development server is shared use for few applications, that's why we are not allowed to install it in root although we can use different port for that. My team members have been working on the contents for months. It is a bit too late to tell them change the contents to the right path.

Besides that, our deployment archiecture is slight complex. We have a public server in DMZ zone for public and another server located in Intranet zone. Both are pointing to the  same DNN database. The intranet zone's server is a shared use server and it has no issue because it using http://servername/mywebsites.

there is a free search/replace module for Text/HTML module, but I don't have a solution for all full text columns.
