Button not getting disabled after deploying site in IIS 7

Question

Hi I have deployed my site on IIS 7 server. At certain conditions I want to disable one button. This is working at my local but after deploying it in IIS it is not working. Here is my code. protected void Page_Load( object sender EventArgs e) { try { lFnEnabledisableServiceAuthentication(); } catch ( Exception ) { } } void lFnEnabledisableServiceAuthentication() { try { string lStrUsers =  ; string lStrCurrentUser =  ; lStrUsers = ConfigurationManager .AppSettings[ ServiceAuthUsers ].ToString(); lStrCurrentUser = clsGlobals .Prp_clsGlobals.mFnUpdateHostUser(); if (lStrUsers.Trim().ToLower() == lStrCurrentUser.Trim().ToLower()) { btnInovisService.Enabled = true ; } else { btnInovisService.Enabled = false ; } } catch ( Exception ) { throw ; } } appSettings > add key =  ServiceAuthUsers  value =  MyaccountName  /> appSettings > Any suggestions like why this is happening.. Thanks Sreenath

Hi when I solved this issue by turning anonymous access off but again this issue started... http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Forums/Thread/123890/site-deployed-in-iis-7-is-always-asking-for-username-and-pas.aspx any remedy to get rid of this credential request...?

As Suthish suggested  can you create a small app just return the HttpContext user name ? Does the same application is working fine in Windows 7 also? If possible  can you attach the setting of IIS 6 and IIS 7 ? So that we can easily compare the settings between two version of IIS.

Mahesh Chand · Answer

Try in different browser. Sometimes some script does not work in a specific browser. I did not read all discussion here.

Suthish Nair · Answer

can you try hosting another simple application and check the same problem exists..

Hi..it didnt work this way...I tried to change pool identity as local system too...

Muralidharan Deenathayalan · Answer

For testing purpose change the identity to your user-id and test the application once. Check the same AppPool identity value in IIS 6.0 and your location machine also. If it is different then you are reached the solution.

Sreenath G · Answer

Hi..its Network service.

Muralidharan Deenathayalan · Answer

What is the App Pool idenitity under process model section ? IIS-->Application Pools-->Right Click on your AppPool-->Advanced Settings--> Under Process Model check the Identity value.

You are missing something re-deploy your website again with configuration.. How To Deploy ASP.Net Web site Content on IIS 7.0 Deploying ASP.NET Websites on IIS 7.0

Sreenath G · Answer

yeah suthis...but nothing is been printed... I have used Response.Write(lStrUsers +   + lStrCurrentUser);

Suthish Nair · Answer

did you tried to test the code as i said?

Sreenath G · Answer

I have used application user.

Muralidharan Deenathayalan · Answer

so users local machine account name is not equal to your System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name ? In the physical path settings( IIS 7-->Right Click -->manage web site-->Advanced Settings-->PhysicalPath Settings) have you configured Application user or Specific user ? Which option you have used ?

Sreenath G · Answer

Hi Murali This will return the users local machine account name. This is working when I deployed the site the iis 6..but I dont know anbout here..

Suthish Nair · Answer

put Response.Write() and check the value getting here.. lStrUsers.Trim().ToLower() == lStrCurrentUser.Trim()

Muralidharan Deenathayalan · Answer

What is the values you are getting by using this statement : System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.Split(\.ToCharArray())[1].Trim(); Check the value of PhysicalPath settings in IIS 7. Go to the Site in IIS 7-->Right Click -->manage web site-->Advanced Settings-->PhysicalPath Settings--? Hope this helps you.

Sreenath G · Answer

Yeah I have tried to give button name as some other constat vale in that funciton. But was no use..

Sreenath G · Answer

No..actually I am using public string mFnUpdateHostUser() { try { return System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.Split(\.ToCharArray())[1].Trim(); } catch (Exception) { throw; } } this is returning correct user name..and I have been using this in sited deployed in IIS 6 too..and working fine

Create a log file and which part If codition is executing.... I guess it is going always... to the else part... Try to hard-code value for the true part check it once...
