Hi,

I have the following scenario:

domain.com - ASP.NET pages
domain.com/foo1 - CMS pages
domain.com/foo2 - ASP.NET pages

My issue is that when I go to domain.com, it does not load the
default.aspx page and instead serves up the default CMS page with a
list of channels. If I append /default.aspx to the URL, it works.

Is there a way to get the default.aspx page loaded before CMS takes the
request?

Regards,

Han.

are you mapping the channel headers to host name? that'd be my first guess.

Yes we are mapping channel headers to host name. This is required as
there are other CMS web sites also hosted on the same server. Is there
a workaround?

redirect ? we have a template that will redirect to any url entered
into a single placeholder when the page is in published mode.

Hi

Set the Scrip Url (aka OuterScruptFile) of the first level
channel, domainname.com, to point to the /default.aspx
page.

Hi Han,

you are mixing up terms.
In MCMS you never enter the URL to the project but the Channel URL.
The fact that you added default.aspx seems to indicate that you entered the
project URL rather than the Channel URL.

Or is your channel URL identical to your project URL? Then it might be that
you did not assign the default.aspx as a channel rendering script. Am I
right with my assumption that default.aspx should work as a channel
rendering script or is this intended to be a MCMS template file?
Please confirm.

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

The thing is, the root part of the site www.domain.com is not actually
a CMS site, hence the need to load default.aspx. It is only the
sub-channel www.domain.com/foo1 that is CMS. Is it possible to have
this scenario work?

Thanks,

Han.

Hi Han,

thanks for the clarification!

Yes this is possible: you need to disable the map channel to host header
feature in the SCA.
Then you need to create the channel foo1 below the root channel.
So the channels structure would look like this:

/Channels
/foo1

This will do what you are looking for.

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

I'm afraid that's not possible as I have other web sites hosted on the
same server that rely on this "Map Channel to Host Header" setting in
SCA. Is there another workaround?

Regards,

Han.

Hi Han,

then you need to ensure that no posting in the channel www.domain.com exists
and that no channel rendering script is assigned to this channel.
In addition create the following channel structure:

/Channels
/www.domain.com
/foo1

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the suggestion. I have my channel structure set up exactly
as you describe. After signing in with the ManualLogin.aspx page, it
sends the user to the www.domain.com channel and instead displays the
standard CMS page with a list of all channels the user has access to.

Hi Han,

Ah! Ok, yes that is as expected.
To avoid this you need to either set the default.aspx page as the channel
rendering script or you need to create a channel rendering script that does
a redirect to the default.aspx page.

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks, that suggestion has done the trick, however, I now have another
related problem.

I set the channel rendering script as /default.aspx. Now,
www.domain.com displays correctly. However, when I go to
www.domain.com/foo1 (the CMS part of the site), I do not get redirected
to the ManualLogin.aspx page and instead get the error "The current
user does not have rights to the requested item". My web.config file
is in the www.domain.com/foo1/ folder and has authentication mode set
to "Forms".

Han.

Hi han,

do you have a channel rendering script in the /Channels/foo1 channel?
If yes: is it a channel rendering script from the application in the /foo1
web application?

Cheers,
Stefan.

Sorry, I meant /Channels/www.domain.com/foo1 in my previous post rather than
/Channels/foo1

Cheers,
Stefan.
