Question

I have an app built in ASP.NET/C#.

I have created a WebSetUp for the application.The setup installation was successful.
It also created the virtual directory Cwiz which I mentioned during installation.

I also enabled ASP.NET in IIS 6.0.
Now when I try to access the page like localhost/Cwiz/Login.aspx It gives me an error

Server Error in '/' Application.

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: /HomeLogin.aspx

When I try to access a html page like localhost/Cwiz/test.html it works properly.

I am using Forms Authentication.

I have searched for the solution enough but can’t seem to guess what can be wrong.I enabled ASP.NET in IIS.

Can anyone help me with this issue.
Any suggestion are welcome.

Answer 1

The error is clear, the /HomeLogin.aspx does not exists, make sure to add the appropiate url in the web.config file:

<authentication mode="Forms">
  <forms loginUrl="~/HomeLogin.aspx" timeout="2880" />
</authentication>

You are being redirected to this file because you have not been authenticated with the server

BTW you commented:

Now when I try to access the page like localhost/Cwiz/Login.aspx It gives me an error

But your error contains:

Requested URL: /HomeLogin.aspx

The login pages are different, perhaps that’s the problem
