The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

HttpHandler for stylesheets not working on windows server 2003/IIS 6.0 (.NET 2.0)

Asked by AGBrown in Programming for ASP.NET

Tags: httphandler, app_code

I have developed a (simple) test httphandler for my stylesheets. It works fine in an application in a virtual directory on IIS 5.1 on the development Xp SP2 machine, but when I deploy it to the server, it stops working and I just get a 404 for any stylesheet that I request. I have set the server virtual directory up, as far as I can see, absolutely identically. This is what I've covered so far:
-There are no error messages being given, I just get a 404.
-There are no event log messages being given.
-I have registered the .css extension has to be handled by the .NET framework under the properties/virtual directory/configuration using:
+c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll
+for GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG
+with "script engine" checked,
+and "verify" not checked (as some css files do not exist on disk).
-The web.config contains the appropriate httpHandlers key:

            <httpHandlers>
                  <add verb="*" path="css*.css" type="StyleSheetHandler, App_Code"/> 
            </httpHandlers>
-The web.config in the directory that the style sheets are "in" allows all users and anonymous users to access the style sheets:
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
      <configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
            <system.web>
                  <authorization>
                        <allow users="*,?" />
                  </authorization>
            </system.web>
      </configuration>
-A test deploy from VS2005 to another VDir on IIS 5.1 also works fine
-Copying that test deploy (straight drag and drop to the server) still does not work.

Any ideas?
