Thanks William,
This is exactly what I am expirencing. When I would designate the root directory (/) to be mapped to the virtual directory Apache would fail. Thus this is a known issue. I thought I was misunderstanding something. I even tried using double slashes thinking I could trick Apache -- to no avail.
Is this a problem with the parsing in the Hosting environment (the C++ code that load the runtime) or is the problem in .NET API (System.Web.Hosting)? From your response it appears that the .NET API is stripping the root directory. In this case it would appear that mod_aspnet would have to special case this scenario. Let me know if I can help because I would really like to use Apache over IIS 6.0. Apparently I can do what I've requested with IIS 6.0.
Thanks, Chris

Sure you should be able to do this. The problem is with path name parsing. When /test/ is mapped to c:/myapp/ everything is fine, even when we strip off the patches (System.Web.Hosting does).
Now it gets tricky because when the path gets stripped off, the uri of / mapped to c:/myapp/ disappears altogether. Never figured out exactly how to handle this cleanly, but I'm happy to take another look.

I asked this question some time ago but never received an answer. I would like to run ASP.NET applications on from a single IP address whereby the IP Address is mapped to server virtual directories. I would like to be able to designate a separate virtual root directory for each application and use Apache to run these applications. The URL designate the application in a manner whereby the use has only to type the web address (no directory) and that application would run.
For example
127.0.0.1 is mapped to a) http://MyApp1.com b) http://MyApp2.com
Then MyApp1.com is mapped to C:\MyApp1 virtual directory
and MyApp2.com is mapped to C:\MyApp2 virtual directory.
Right now I couldn't get mod_aspnet to be mapped to a rooted virtual directory. I was only able to do this if they are mapped to a subdirectory of the rooted virtual directory.
For example if this was not an aspnet application but generic html application Apache can handle what I'm requesting for asp.net. Has anyone been able to get this to work with the configuration described herein. Or do you have to do redirects instead.
Thanks in advance, Chris
