Question

I need to register a httphandler in a sub folder (“myTest”) to my web application.
I know that a solution would be to add a webconfig to the myTest folder, but that is not an option in this case.

I would like to add the following to my web.config (focus on the path attribute)

<system.webServer>
 <handlers>
  <add name="myHandler" verb="*" path="myTest/myHandler.axd" preCondition="integratedMode" type="xxxxxx.xxxx, xxxxxx" />
 </handlers>
</system.webServer>

IIS 7 doesn’t complain about the relative path, but it doesn’t work either

Answer 1

Another option would be to just place and .ashx file in the folder. Then you don’t need to register anything in web.config.
