I’d like to save images in a directory on my Disk in Windows Server

  • 0

I’d like to save images in a directory on my Disk in Windows Server 2003 in a Subfolder out of my webroot.
mydomain.com/myfolder

I’ll upload images there for example test.jpg, which I’d like to show using ASP.NET, well this works, and If I try to browse the path “mydomain.com/myfolder” there is shown Access Denied.

My problem is, if I type “mydomain.com/myfolder/test.jpg” the picture is shown, but I’d like to show them only via my ASP.NET App.

Can I manage this using the Windows Server permissions without using the Active Directory Authentication Mode?

I tried for example to left only the NETWORK SERVICE put then also my .NET app didn’t show the image anymore.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance
Johannes

    You can use Wildcard Application Mappings to map all requests (.*) to aspnet_isapi.dll.
    Then you can control all requests by ASP.NET. You can write e.g. HttpModule, that will handle showing your image.

    In IIS7 you can use attribute 

    runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"

    in web.config in element: 

    <system.webServer><modules>
