Hello first let me apologize in advance if this is a repeat or trivial question as I am not very experienced in the webserver/IIS world.
I have recently set up an ASP.Net web application on IIS 7. There is a main application and in one of its sub directories an additional application, which is a message board. I attempted to set up this directory as another application in IIS by performing the following steps:
- Created a new Application Pool for this application under 'Appication Pools'.
- Right-clicked on the root directory of the 'sub application' and selected 'Convert to application'.
- Point the physical path to the appropriate path on my file system, gave the application an alias and hit 'OK'
However when I went to access this application through my webpage I received an error stating that the webpage has a 'redirect loop' and it won't load.
I believe what might be causing the problem is that both the primary application and the new sub application share an AspMembershipProvider in order to achieve Single Sign-On. Perhaps this is causing some sort of redirect issue? I really am having a difficult time figuring out how to troubleshoot this.
Is there anything in my IIS configuration that I can investigate that might be causing this issue?
