In IIS7, If I want to create an application, I just right-click on a folder to do it:
If later on I want to convert it back to a regular folder (not an application), how can I do it?
Right click on application folder and select remove. The application will be converted as regular folder.
I'm not aware of an automated approach, but you should be able to get most of the way there by moving all of the code for your site (except code behind) into an App_Code folder at the top level, and by removing the DLL for your site from the bin folder.
You may also need a few other tweaks.
Just right-click on the app and then select remove.
I have made the Following changes.
In IIS Right-click the same Virtual application and select "remove"
option. This will convert the application to the folder only.

so my uncle asked me to update something on his website. I found out he uses azure service. I've never used this service before. After looking around I thought it was as easy as Searching App Services, then clicking on the only app running, then on the side panel click development center, then I choose FTP access. I then used FileZilla, I edited a file and then re-uploaded the file but nothing gets updated on the site. Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks.
If you want to update your website, you can use FTP,Git or other tools. You can refer to this document which can tell you how to deploy your sites. And contains other way to deploy your app. According your describe, you can check the last modified time of files in kudu.The following paragraph will introduce kudu.
If you just want to update your static files in sites. The easiest way is logging on portal and find your app.
First, you should click Advanced Tool in left side, and click the link to open KUDU Management.
Second, find Debug console options and click CMD or PowerShell, then you can see folders in the page, click site->wwwroot .
Third, you can add/delete/modify your static files by buttons in the page. When click the icon of pen, you can modify this file.
If you want to copy your local files, you also can drop it to this page, it's very convenient. More function about Kudu you can see this site.
Hope my answer works for you.
I have an existing application under the "Default Web Site" that is functioning but want to move it as its own "Site". What is the best approach to this as the functioning site has a lot of configuration to it.
I've tried creating a new site and copy/pasting the folder contents(c:/inetpub/wwwroot/application) over but that does not work.
In theory, if I could simply drag the application out of the "Default Web Site" and drop it to the "Sites" folder, that would be nice...
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
All you have to do in IIS.
Right Click on Sites --> Add web Site (Make up a name for it)
Just set the physical path to the location of the application (You don't even have to move the application)
If you have an old website you want to move to a different folder (like on a different hard drive w/ more memory), you can:
copy the folder to the website to the new location (making sure to reset all the file permissions b/c they are often not automatically copied),
open the site in IIS,
click "Basic settings" in the "Actions" panel on the right hand side of the screen,
change the "Physical path"
click ok
Do an app pool recycle afterwards to ensure everything takes effect
Is it possible to add a static web folder as a project in Visual Studio?
I have a VS solution with a number of sites and services, I also have a static html/JS/backbone site with no .net/cshtml content which I would like to be logically in this solution, and edited in VS.
is this possible?
Create a physical folder with your web site in it.
then right click on solution, add existing web site, and select the folder
You could just add a new solution folder, and add your files under there.
I've been researching this for a bit and I've found that copying a Sharepoint folder doesn't actually keep the permissions intact.
I've tried mapping the Sharepoint folder to X:\ and then using Robocopy with this command:
Robocopy "X:\SharepointFolder\Bob Dylan" "X:\SharepointFolder\John Lennon" /E /SEC
This copies the folders, but the permissions isn't kept anyway. Actually I get this error message in the cmd window saying
New Dir 0 X:\SharepointFolder\Bob Dylan\Documents\
2011/06/01 11:32:28 ERROR 1 (0x00000001) Copying NTFS Security to Destination Di
rectory X:\SharepointFolder\Bob Dylan\Documents\
Incorrect function.
The thing is, is my syntax incorrect or is it impossible to copy folder permissions in SharePoint?
Copying a folder via WebDAV won't copy any meta data set on the folder. Therefor permissions won't be copied as well.
If you have the Publishing Features turned on, check out the Manage Content and Structure Report. I think it will allow you to move things around within a site collection and perserve your metadata and security.
I had this exact same error. I was using mapped drives to copy data to SharePoint. I found that my xml file on the SharePoint mapped drive (destination) was applied with encryption attributes recently applied to my pc (source).
I am still looking for a way to use robocopy or powershell to remove the encryption from the destination file programatically.
To manually remove the attribute, navigate to the mapped drive, go to properties of the xml file, at the bottom in Attributes click Advanced, uncheck 'Encrypt contents..', apply.
(**For those not sure how to see the attributes)
Open explorer for your mapped drive, on the column header bar right click and choose attributes. You can see the security applied. E is encryption.
I am in developing small Batch File to get Access Control List based on CMD
net user USERID /domain [enter]
I am welcome to everybody have idea to APPLY access permission of SharePoint within CMD. Thank you in advanced. :)
A developer just send me a running website files from IIS directory. I want to know if I can run the website on my PC. The file contain "Default.aspx" file, which I assume is of some importance.
I want to know if it is possible to run the website on my PC, I have installed IIS and I placed the file in the wwwroot folder, but unfortunately I dont know how to proceed from here.
Can someone please point me to the right way to continue with this task.
Thanks in advance
First time use of IIS
Now that IIS is running on your system, it should have defaulted to running on port 80. You can test this out by going to http://localhost/
The file you have placed in the wwwroot directory Default.aspx is an ASP.NET application. You need to go to IIS and convert the directory it is stored into a web application.
Now when creating web applications, it is better to create them in another folder other than your wwwroot folder, and in the case of this tutorial it is easier. Move your Default.aspx into a folder named 'webapp', or something of the like.
To convert it into an application, do the following:
In the Server Manager, expand the
'Roles' item in the tree
Expand the 'Web Server (IIS)' item
Click on 'Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
In the window on the right hand side, you will need to open up your server. In my case, my server is called WIN2008R2. Your server name will be located inside the 'Connections' pane. Expand your server in the tree
Expand the 'Sites' item
Expand your newly created site. There should only be one there, and the item will have a globe next to it
Now right click on your 'webapp' item which will have a folder next to it, and click 'Convert to Application'. Then leave all the properties the same in the window that comes up and click OK.
You have now created a new web application. By going to http://localhost/webapp you should see it working.
You need to configure IIS to host an ASP.NET website.
You can find information about configuring IIS here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178477.aspx
Another option is using the Cassini web server (instead of IIS). You may find it easier to configure: http://ultidev.com/products/cassini/
