I am having a problem with setting up WebDav.  It seems to be working with the exception of the step to add a “Wildcard application map” for the “c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll” file.  I have verified the file path.  When I add that, I get the error indented below.  There weren't any errors on installation and the module and WebDav seem to be working.  I am, however, having issues using WebDav in Internet Explorer 7.  In Internet Explorer 6 it seems to working just fine, but IE7 will be prompted for authentication like others have mentioned, where it won't accept any credentials.  I don’t know if the two problems are related, but any help would be appreciated.

My web server is: Windows 2003 SP2 / IIS 6 / DNN 4.07 / DMX 4.02 / SQL Express 2005.  I have fresh installed the website twice now with the same result.

Server Error in '/' Application.

I am trying to connect to the WebDav from IE7 on my Windows XP workstation by right clicking on the folder and choosing "Open in Windows Explorer".

Hi Brian,

Could this be an Active Directory issue? My guess is that the AD also has an issue that I ran into with DNN 4.8. Namely that portal context is no longer being built on every call. This could possibly lead the error above. I'll make a note of that one.

... but then again that should not be dependent on the IE version you're using ...

I read my first post again and I want to clearify that the issue with the Wildcard Application map is seperate from the issue with IE7.  If I add that dll to the wildcard application map the site will no longer load.  If I remove it the site appears to work, at least with IE6.  In IE7 the experience is inconsistant.  It seems that I can get into the webdav and navigate the folder structure after cancelling the authentication challenge, but I am unable to modify anything.

Hi Brian,
I'm not sure whether this is an AD or a DMX issue. Do you have a way to narrow that down? I know IE7 works because I use it all the time. The authentication challenges might indicate an AD issue. You could also make a fiddler trace (www.fiddler2.com) for me and I'll look at that to see if I can discover more.
