Httphandler remove verb

Hi,

I have httphandler which is an entry point for all .net apps on the server. The destination webapplication path has some sub/virtual path directories.

e.g destination web app location is sw/entry. Other .net applications are also deployed in following location: sw/abc/app.

Because the handler application is root directory, the sub application are inheriting verbs (via add verb) and are trying to load the handler dll. I would like to avoid some of the applications which are located in sub directories to NOT load the handler dll.

I found out that I need to remove verb in the web.config handler section from the sub application.

I don't know the syntax of this. If someone can help me out.

Here is the add verb in the handler webapp:
<add verb="*" path="*.*" type="com.s.w.e.DomainHandler,com.s.w.e" />

I tried adding remove verb in the handler webapp as well as sub application's web.config directly. None of them work.

Here is the syntax:
<remove verb="*" path="*/sw/abc/*.aspx"/>

fyi: Handler is not looking for any specific file type. It is doing custom url redirecting.

I am using .net 2.0 webapplication

In the sub folder application, I have some handlers that I need to keep:
for example,

MSIL

<remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/>
     <add verb="*" path="*.asmx" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"/>
     <add verb="*" path="*_AppService.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"/>
     <add verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" validate="false"/>

You mentioned to remove using syntax: <remove verb="*" path="*"/>
If I add remove in this sub application, wouldn't it remove other handlers(mentioned above) as well?

hi,

you can see the ref here
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e0dzxdza.aspx[^]
under all your sub virtual directory web.config you can add this

XML

<httpHandlers>
       <remove verb="*" path="*"/>
    </httpHandlers>

this should do the trick.
