Another find.
/DesktopModules/Images/Imagefile.gif - WORKS
/DesktopModules/ModuleName/Images/Image.gif - fails no mattaer what module directory. Fails no matter what sub directory. I can access nothing in any directory AFTER the module name.

Baffling. This is a security issue. But what to do to fix it?

Sebastian,

None of my files may be accessed through the browser with the virtual directory. All of my files (in all directories) are accessible in my browser.

I followed a set of instructions to set up this DNN Host from the web. It mentioned nothing about special IIS access. IN the past I remember setting up an ASP40Net type security and granting IIS and Windows directories to it. This was not in the directions this time. At the time I thought that was odd. This might be the issue. if it is, can you point me to an article (or video) for DNN 7.2 on Windows 7 with IIS 7.5. This way I can be sure I am working through the problem correctly.

If what I mentioned means I should check something else out, let me know. Again, keep in mind this works in production with the same code. The difference is tat production was an INSTALL of a module and test was a module CREATE from a MANIFEST and the virtual directory was created by VS 2010. This might have caused the issue because DNN is unaware of it?

All help is appreciated. I have access issues with Module.css files, javascript files, image files and css files all throughout my desktop modules directories across several modules.

Cathal,

I will look into all of those. I am unable to access the dnntracker link, even after logging in to dnntracker. Is the link bad?

My directory length is between 75 and 105 characters (fully qualified to the last character of the file names). Is this shorter than the issue?
I believe in production the names are about the same length.
