Hey Paul,

The umbracoReservedPaths should be all you need, what is it you're trying to run in the sub directory? Can you just run a sample/test .aspx file instead of your exisiting app, this might narrow down your problem.

Yup, as Rich says, dropping your pages in a separate folder and make umbraco ignore those folders should be fine. Dll' for your pages/application should go into bin folder of your umbraco install. If you want to run it as a separate application, either copy all umbraco dlls's into your own folder's bin directory (may conflict if you're using assemblies also used by umbraco if their version number is different) or change the web.config for your own application to override entries from the root's web.config

Cheers,

Further to how to get the separate app working, that error message says it can't find UrlRewritingNet.UrlRewriter.dll in the Umbraco bin directory.

I'd check it is there and that you haven't somehow excluded it.

Thank you all for your replies.

I think a little bit of sleep also helped :) I'm not sure what i was doing wrong but in the end i had to put my class files in the App_Code folder of Umbraco. However, is there a way to have Umbraco installed on a site and have other folders COMPLETELY independend of Umbraco? The idea that comes to mind is to install it as a separate applicatoin, but then it wouldn't run from domain root...

EDIT: Can someone point me to some documentation about integrating your own apps into Umbraco?

Basically I want to use Umbraco to setup a "portfolio" website where i can showcase ASP.NET and other projects.

Hi Paul,

I have just developed a intranet for the company that i work for. We had the problem when adding old applications under our umbraco installation. But we managed to solve it and created a web.config "template" on what to remove.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <remove name="urlrewritingnet" />    
  </configSections>
  
  <system.web>    
    <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
    <httpModules>
      <remove name="UrlRewriteModule" />
      <remove name="umbracoRequestModule" />
      <remove name="viewstateMoverModule" />
      <remove name="umbracoBaseRequestModule" />
      <remove name="ClientDependencyModule" />
    </httpModules>
  </system.web>

  <system.webServer>
    <modules>
      <remove name="UrlRewriteModule" />
      <remove name="umbracoRequestModule" />
      <remove name="viewstateMoverModule" />
      <remove name="umbracoBaseRequestModule" />
      <remove name="ClientDependencyModule" />
    </modules>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>

Also a note, if you want to use membership authentication and use the same session across your applications you can use the machinekey element in the web.config, as you would in a webfarm. Somewhere in the system.web element you add the entry down below to every one of the web.config files of the applications you would like to share the logged in user. You can use this site to generate your own machinkey, http://www.orcsweb.com/articles/aspnetmachinekey.aspx

        <machineKey validationKey='9E15EB7669FD8D0A19A79A2B0CDCAE4DCD5D94C9843061E8BA9ECE3B42BD09D54D26B83F08B82ACDD77AFDAC03809ED56E689B73AC2F841C3DAB2868344AC1A0' decryptionKey='C0E830697428BB0AA18E229CD594A5474627CB1A290428D2' validation='SHA1'/>
