hi,

is it possible to include an application directory name in the url of the hosted application or service ?

we need to do something like

http://localhost:8080/StudyServer/StudyService.asmx

it only seems possible using the configuration tools to do the following

http://localhost:8080/StudyService.asmx

thanks

hi,

in answer to your question about why we require a virtual directory path name in the url is that:

we were trialling the use of cassini within an automated test environment which involves installation of a server sided service and a client, then running a series of automated tests.

we wanted to mirror as closely as possible the deployment of the service and its client and therefore wanted to use the naming directory naming conventions which are intended to be used.

thanks

Hi,

I'd like to reopen this thread because I have absolutely the same requirement. We are using Cassini instead of IIS because of some trouble with our IT department, as we are not allowed to run public webservers in our company. Thus, cassini is the ideal solution to provide a very special reporting application only on one special reporting server, accessible by all members of our department.

What I run with cassini is a free reporting solution, called LogiReport. It is used for reports on several identical testing projects, each with it's own customization and database connection. The core is shared between projects. For the end user (and the webserver), this looks like several identical applications, each in it's own folder.

So the resulting URLs look (should) like like this:

http://localhost/project1/
http://localhost/project2/
http://localhost/project3/
http://localhost/project4/

the common code is only accessed via filesystem from within the application. There are no cross references, so it's no problem to run each project under another port. Unfortunately, Cassini does not allow for these subfolders, so under Cassini it currently looks like this:

http://localhost:44440/
http://localhost:44441/
http://localhost:44442/
http://localhost:44443/

This works, but I have one BIG issue: As all projects are using the same location and code, cookies are also shared between the projects (the cookies don't use the port information). Even worse, cookies are the only way to save user selected settings. Sharing them between projects will produce absolutely unexpected results (e.g. special database filters)

So, finally my question: Is there any way to get a subfolder (without any content!) into the base path (ideally without coding)?

Best Regards,
Alex

Thanks for this ultra fast reply!

Unfortunately I already tried that and for whatever reason, in this case tht cookies won't work at all!
I will give it one more try. Do I need to restart the computer or webserver for this? (don't hink I did that)
I'll keep you informed.

Best Regards,
Alex

Oh, I read this too late (but will keep this in mind next time, thanks for the hint!)
After several trials and analyzing our proxyconf script I found out how to specify the domain name in a way it bypasses the proxy.
I configured the hosts file like this and now it works (as cookies are now treated as intranet information)!

127.0.0.1 localhost.project1
127.0.0.1 localhost.project2
127.0.0.1 localhost.project3
...

Thank you for your help!
Alex
