Where did my IIS Manager settings go

There are two ways this could have happened

1) Yoursquove deleted the webconfig file

2) Yoursquove replaced the webconfig file with your own

The majority of the IIS Manager settings are stored in your individual webconfig file

This means that if you delete the webconfig file either by accident or on purpose

settings like anonymousbasic authentication default documents HTTP Errors etc

will be reset to the server default

You should also be aware that if you upload your own webconfig file you might

break your website by overwritingremoving features yoursquove set via the control panel

or IIS Remote Manager or you could end up trying to utilize features not allowed

under the current server configuration rendering the entire website unavailable

How to redirect a subdomain to a subfolder

In this example we have a domain called ldquoexamplecomrdquo with two hostnames

wwwexamplecom (examplecom)

shopexamplecom

Note Hostnames can be Added in MyAccount control panel under ldquoDomain Adminrdquo

We have created the following directory structure at our site

wwwrootdefaultaspx (landing page for wwwexamplecom)

wwwrootwebconfig (config file for the root application)

wwwrootshopdefaultaspx (required landing page for shopexamplecom)

In order to redirect incoming requests on ldquoshopexamplecomrdquo to a subfolder called

ldquoshoprdquo we add the following to the webconfig file located at wwwrootwebconfig

ltsystemwebServergt ltrewritegt ltrulesgt ltrule name=Shop Subdomain Redirect stopProcessing=truegt ltmatch url=() gt ltconditions logicalGrouping=MatchAllgt ltadd input=HTTP_HOST pattern=^shopexamplecom$ gt ltadd input=REQUEST_URI negate=true pattern=shop gt ltconditionsgt ltaction type=Redirect url=httpshopexamplecomshopR1 gt ltrulegt ltrulesgt ltrewritegt ltsystemwebServergt

Incoming request to
