SPAM-LOW: Re: [mapguide-users] Error in ASP AjaxViewer application (update)

[Andy Morsell]

It sounds like you might have broken your IIS install by doing that.  If you
put the short path back, does this error go away?

In your original post you do not show a full URL for the addresses you are
trying to access.  Try putting the machine name first, something like:
http://localhost/mapguide/mapviewerajax/?WEBLAYOUT=Library://Samples/Sheboyg
an/Layouts/SheboyganAsp.WebLayout&LOCALE=en

FYI - An update to this: I thought I would try replacing the 'long' path to
the .aspx --> aspnet_isapi.dll mapping with the 'short' one. This resulted a
different error that runs as follows:

"Server Error in '/mapguide/mapviewerajax' Application.

... and, yes, putting back the long version restores the previous cryptic
error, even though I had 'Check that file exists' selected, without any
configuration error being flagged.
