Sharepoint 2010 issue: MVC 2 App under Sharepoint website root, Day 3
Posted: November 1, 2010 Filed under: Business as Usual, Sharepoint 3 Comments »Hello, Hallo, Hello, … How Low …
That was a long day from Day 2 to Day 3. I am blaming Microsoft entirely for the delay in posts (it is all your fault Bill!). Well, Amy calls me (Microsoft Sharepoint support) she was having difficulty replicating the error. We worked together in technological synergy and harnessed the power of the error. She now is getting the exact same error as I am. Solution …… solution to this seemingly trivial error! No solution as of yet. She now has to work with the ASP.NET team. Good thing I have a million other things to develop, solve, and fix; because I would just be sitting obsessing over this error, festering and brewing into some kind of personality complex ….
Soon, hopefully I will have the post that puts this to an end!
[...] See day 3 [...]
Thanks for sharing. We are having the exact same problem. I know it been almost a year, but did you every figure out how to get MVC working in the same sharepoint site?
Hey Man, if you check out day 4 of this series it isn’t possible! http://ontehfritz.wordpress.com/2010/11/10/sharepoint-2010-issue-mvc-2-app-under-sharepoint-website-root-day-4/
I tried to hack around with it, but nothing. There is a lot of things happening in sharepoint 2010 that you can not work around. Microsoft support said they will not support this scenario.
The solution is a single sign on implementation or if it is an internal application then you can just use windows auth, so no need for SSO. Meaning you will have a sharepoint server and separate server for apps or another website. Depending if the servers are going to be internal or external will determine how the implementation is.
