Help me using wwwroot folder - 2/26/2008 7:26:42   
Hi,

Can anyone please help me? I have developed a website and want to upload it on my local machin. For this i copied the folder name "My first website" it into wwwroot folder. After that i managed my index page from IIS properties but when i test it, it doesn't work. For resolving this problem i also copy my index page from subfolder and past it directly wwwroot folder and now it is working but all pages are not showing when i click on link. Please help me for this because i am new in this field.

Thank you
coreybryant

Since you seem to have the first page working, but not the others - can you maybe provide the source code of one of the invalid links / paths? And then check to see if that file is uploaded as well.

It will be a little difficult to help you out since we are unable to view this and it could be a source code problem or IIS issue.

Actualy, my whole website is working properly and there isn't any source code problem. I think it's a matter of IIS. Moreover, i developed whole website in one folder and also subfolders and then copied it into wwwroot folder. Now i have only one folder in wwwroot and subfolders as well as. i managed folders like this. Images, Pages. Music & etc.

My index page is in Pages folder and i set it from IIS Documents properties to show users my Index page when they enter in my site.

By doing this i am not able to see my website. Please tell me how can i manage wwwroot folder to show it?

It's not usual to have your index page in a folder it's normally in the root. Suggest you put it plus all the other stuff in the Pages folder directly into the root. Then make sure all the links are correct.

As Corey said, without seeing the site we can't help, we need to be able to see the code to work out what's going on.

Why not set your wwwroot as your home directory? Chances are since you set your Pages folder as your home directory, everything is starting there and not your wwwroot

It sounds like you need a server admin to help you out - get yourself situated. I would recommend Windows Serv for Microsoft Windows Server Administration
