My wwwroot static files aren't being resolved.
I understand that to serve static files, I need to put them in wwwroot:
favicon.ico resolves just fine, but schema/v1-0.json does not. I get the generic message:
The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name
changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
I have the following wired up in Startup:
app.UseMiddleware<StaticFileMiddleware>(new StaticFileOptions());
app.UseStaticFiles();
I am using DNX beta6. The above require beta5 packages. I cannot find anything online regarding serving static files in beta6. I am not sure if this could be the cause of the problem.
EDIT:
As per Sirwan's answer, I have added the following, but the json file is still not available:
var options = new StaticFileOptions
{
ContentTypeProvider = new JsonContentTypeProvider(),
ServeUnknownFileTypes = true,
DefaultContentType = "application/json"
};
app.UseStaticFiles(options);
The JsonContentTypeProvider class:
public class JsonContentTypeProvider : FileExtensionContentTypeProvider
{
public JsonContentTypeProvider()
{
Mappings.Add(".json", "application/json");
}
}
I can even see the file when browsing the server:
Try this:
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions
{
ServeUnknownFileTypes = true,
DefaultContentType = "image/x-icon"
});
If you have multiple file types that are unknown to ASP.NET you can use FileExtensionContentTypeProvider class:
var provider = new FileExtensionContentTypeProvider();
provider.Mappings.Add(".json", "application/json");
provider.Mappings.Add(".ico", "image/x-icon");
// Serve static files.
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions { ContentTypeProvider = provider });
If you're using IIS, make sure you've added the correct mime-type mappings if you don't have a catch-all managed handler. Even though you don't need web.config for your website to work, IIS will still use that for your website.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that if you have not configured IIS to use a managed handler to serve static files it will still default to StaticFileModule and calling app.UseStaticFiles doesn't actually do anything. If you run it using dnx, however, then app.UseStaticFiles gets used.
Just a side note, you should probably also upgrade to beta7 if you haven't already.

I have .net core web API PROJECT. I want to put some static images in this project.I have below code in start up file
var provider = new FileExtensionContentTypeProvider();
// Add new mappings
provider.Mappings[".myapp"] = "application/x-msdownload";
provider.Mappings[".htm3"] = "text/html";
provider.Mappings[".image"] = "image/png";
provider.Mappings[".png"] = "image/png";
// Replace an existing mapping
provider.Mappings[".rtf"] = "application/x-msdownload";
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions()
{
FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(
Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), #"MyStaticFiles")),
RequestPath = new PathString("/StaticFiles"),
ContentTypeProvider = provider
});
when I run or deployed this web project, i have checked under it has StaticFiles folder has test.png
when I browse for test.tt/StaticFiles/test.png, or test.tt/wwwroot/StaticFiles/test.png or test.tt/wwwroot/StaticFiles/images/test.png
browser is not loading that image, it is displaying white page, where I check on network console of by F12,it is delivering response of type document and json.
My problem is image is not displaying, i have tried more images but not helpful.I am sure there is image,folder in my path.
can you tell how if I browse test.png,direct hitting path to get static file .net core WEB API images?
By default, static files go into the wwwroot in your project root. Calling app.UseStaticFiles(), causes this directory to be served at the base path of the site, i.e. /. As such, a file like wwwroot/images/test.png would be available at /images/test.png (note: without the wwwroot part).
I'm not sure what in the world you're doing with the rest of this code here, but you're essentially adding an additional served directory at [project root]/MyStaticFiles, which will then be served at /StaticFiles. As such, first, test.png would have to actually be in MyStaticFiles, not wwwroot, and then you'd access by requesting /StaticFiles/test.png.
However, there's no need for this other directory. If you simply want to add some additional media types, you can do that via:
services.Configure<StaticFileOptions>(o =>
{
var provider = new FileExtensionContentTypeProvider();
provider.Mappings.Add(".myapp", "application/x-msdownload");
// etc.
o.ContentTypeProvider = provider;
});
And then just use:
app.UseStaticFiles();
Nothing else is required.
PBF (street map mapbox vector files) files are not allowed to be served /downloaded from IIS (2008 R8) and I need them to be.
The background
PBFs are served OK when using the react development server
//Startup.cs
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
spa.UseReactDevelopmentServer(npmScript: "start");
}
These files will appear on the map correctly.
However when deploying the .NET Core app to IIS with
ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT = production
set. These files are essentially blocked.
I have added the MIME type
I believe this is an IIS thing as like I say, on the react server in development they load fine.
Any clues as of why they still won't download?
Thanks
Basically IIS virtual directories aren’t supported in .net core. Due to the way .net core projects are served in IIS using a reverse proxy. So in the startup.cs file, do something like this:
// Configure the virtual directory
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions {
FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(#"\\Server\Directory\.."),
RequestPath = "/NameOfDirectory",
ContentTypeProvider = provider,
OnPrepareResponse = (context) => {
if (!context.Context.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) {
context.Context.Response.Redirect("LoginPage");
}
}
});
I crated area/modular MVC5 application according to this tutorial:
This
it worked perfectly on local. but i got 404 error, when i deployed project on iis and clicked on specified area link.
and i didn't find any solution for that.
The resource cannot be found.
Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Requested URL: /Sale
and this is my action links which are perfectly working on local run:
#Html.ActionLink("Sale","Index","Sale",new { Area="Sale"},null)
edited:
public class SaleAreaRegistration:AreaRegistration
{
public override string AreaName
{
get
{
return "Sale";
}
}
public override void RegisterArea(AreaRegistrationContext context)
{
context.MapRoute(
"Sale_default",
"Sale/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "Sale", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
new string[] { "MVCPluggableDemo.Controllers" }
);
}
}
attention: according to the tutorial which i said in first line. i created my module project in another virtual project in solution(the real path is in area folder of main project like"~/ProjectName/Areas/"). but i think the publisher does't understand it...because i don't see any of my module views in deployed path.
its better to completing my help request by this obvious question:
How to deploy MVC project include areas, and the modules which are in areas folder?
Its simply obvious:
Check your page directory. The server cannot locate your the file,
it maybe in different folder.
Also try to Check this.
the main Reason of my problem was this:
VisualStudio doesn't include my Area folder, in publish path..why? i don't know
Solution: no solution yet!..but i added my module dll inside bin folder manually. and created my areas folder and his modules projects solution(dlls' are not not necessary) in main published solution, manually to ..
finally it worked, but i dont thing is the standard solution
I'm running a Nancy application in a Virtual Directory on my development machine and I've got static content working but if the module redirects the browser then the URL being sent back is incorrect.
If the result is:
return new RedirectResponse("/");
Then the browser redirects to http://localhost/ rather than the root of the virtual directory.
If I try
return new RedirectResponse("~/");
I get taken to http://localhost/MyVirtualDirectory/action/~/ which at least includes the virtual directory, but the rest is screwed up.
I should point out that the module is created like this...
public abstract class ActionRootModule : NancyModule
{
protected ActionRootModule() : base("/action/") { }
}
public class SendEmailModule : ActionRootModule
{
public SendEmailModule()
{
// Parts missing for brevity....
Post["/send-email/"] = o => PostSendEmail(o);
}
private dynamic PostSendEmail(dynamic o)
{
// Do stuff...
return new RedirectResponse("~/");
}
}
What is the correct way of telling Nancy to redirect to a specific URL inside a virtual directory?
I'm running Visual Studio on Windows 7 and IIS 7.5 (not IIS Express - as I have incoming traffic from third parties making callbacks)
This won't be a issue on production as the production deployment won't be in a virtual directory.
There are two ways to solve this.
1) Use return Response.AsRedirect("~/");
2) Use return new RedirectResponse(Context.ToFullPath("~/"));
The first option is just a convenient wrapper around the second so either way yields the same result (https://github.com/NancyFx/Nancy/blob/85dfe8567d794ff3e766521a9fa0891832d4fc8a/src/Nancy/FormatterExtensions.cs#L51). The call to ToFullpath() is what corrects the /~/ you saw in your redirected URL.
Hello ServiceStack aficionados!
I would like to host static XML files through the ServiceStack service; however, I can't seem to get the configuration right and only receive 404 errors. Feels like I tried all sorts of path/url combinations.
Can the WebHostPhysicalPath be defined as a relative path? Is there another setting that must be enabled? I was concerned that maybe the XML extension is conflicting with the format conversion stuff.
Also, can I host Razor cshtml files this way too?
Any comments on this approach?
thanks!
You can return a static file from a service like so:
[Route("/myFile/")]
public class GetMyFile
{
}
public class HelloService : Service
{
public HttpResult Any(GetMyFile request)
{
return new HttpResult(new FileInfo("~/myfile.xml"), asAttachment:true) { ContentType = "text/xml" };
}
}
As for razor: http://razor.servicestack.net/
