hi ng,

i try to create a asp.net 1.0 website on windows server 2003(Servername:
ServerX) with iis 6.0.

PROBLEM:
The user should login with his windows credentials in basic.aspx and
automatically redirect to his own files.

i have the following file-structure:
app/basic/basic.aspx
app/basic/web.config (w-b)

app/basic/user_1/index.aspx
app/basic/user_1/web.config (w-1)

app/basic/user_2/index.aspx
app/basic/user_2/web.config (w-2)

I have done the following steps:
1.)i created on the server the windows account for user_1 and user_2

2.)In IIS 6.0 i deactivated the anonymous login and activated only the
basic authentication

3.)In basic.aspx i wrote following to automate the redirect
------
Dim ToSite As String
Dim wp As IIdentity

wp = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity
ToSite = wp.Name.Substring(wp.Name.LastIndexOf("\") + 1) &
"/index.aspx"
Response.Redirect(ToSite , True)
------
THIS CODE WORKS
------
3.1) web.config (w-b) includes:
------
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
------
3.2)user_1 web.config (w-1) includes:
------
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<allow users="ServerX\user_1" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
------
3.3)user_2 web.config (w-2) includes:
------
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<allow users="ServerX\user_2" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>

If the user_1 opens the site app/basic/basic.aspx a windows popup appears.
The user_1 uses his windows credentials and will redirected to his own
files app/basic/user_1/index.aspx, but this site doesnt work and i dont
know why?

The following failure message appears:[TRANSLATED AUTOMATIC FROM GERMAN]
"Run time error"
"description: On the server an application error arose. Due to the
current user-defined error attitudes for this application the details of
the application error cannot be indicated "
But this Message doesnt say antything worthfull.

How can i solve this problem?

thx

Hmmm. this error seems wierd!
Try locating exactly where the error is coming from ..is it from
web.config or you code?

The problem have to be coming from "web.config", because there is no
code anywhere else.

For test purposes. i have removed the redirect code from basic.aspx and
put instead of a hyperlink to the sites
user_1/index.aspx and
user_2/index.aspx but it doesnt work, too!

I think i have a to change something in web.config (w-1) or (w-2)!

Then try seeing through your web.config...
Or create a new one and test it
