Toolbar Web Control in Windows Server 2003

C

Clyde240

Toolbar controls developed using Visual Studio 2003 on a development computer
running Windows XP Professional do not display or operate properly when
installed on the server running Windows Server 2003. They worked OK when the
same server ran Windows Server 2000, but Server 2003 has put an end to that.

Does anyone know what happened and how to fix it?

Thanks

Alvin,

Thanks for the response.

Do you mean the "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\webctrl_client\1_0\toolbar.htc" file?

The .HTC file is there, but maybe I should be looking for something else.
The toolbar just displays as text. I have checked the the DLL is registered
globally and I have emptied the IE cache. The .NET Framework is v1.1.

Thanks again.

The typical issue for that is the tree control can't find the behavior file
located in the web_client directory. See if this directory is present on the
new system.

I checked the web.config file, but could not find anything that mentions
path. I did include the assembly, using the <add assembly > tag, but it
didn't make a difference.

The Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls.dll assembly is included as a Reference for
the project, and the path name referenced is correct.

Is there something in Server 2003 or IIS v6.0 that would change settings?
This project worked on the same machine when it ran Server 2000 and IIS v5.x.

Thanks for all the help.

Search your web config file or machine config file for that folder. Make
sure the path to that file in your configuration file EXACTLY matches the
location of the file on disk.

Alvin,

That worked! I had previously tried re-installing over top, but this
morning I uninstalled and re-installed - and that did the trick. Don't know
why it worked, but it did.

Thanks again,

At this point, i'd suggest you re-install the web control on the affected
machine. We could be digging around endlessly for a cause for the entire
day.
