Running AtomSite on Hosting Providers
Posted in AtomSite by JarrettV on 4/30/2010 6:20:00 PM - CSTWith the recent release of AtomSite 1.4, we are working on making AtomSite install on more hosting providers. Our biggest change in this direction was the medium trust support.
I've personally run AtomSite on two hosting providers: AspNix and DiscountAsp. There was a huge difference between these two hosting providers when setting up AtomSite. With DiscountAsp, they have stellar IIS7 support and I was up and running quickly with a few tweaks in their incredible control panel. However, with AspNix, it required many back-and-forth emails with their (very helpful) support crew:
- Enable full-trust (to enable write permissions)
- Many back-and-forth on permission delegation for web.config (their permissions are too locked down for IIS7)
- Please allow PUT and DELETE verbs in UrlScan
I was recently contacted by MaximumASP with the following info:
I was trying to get AtomSite working on our shared environment, but kept running into issues with the DELETE and PUT requests. The removing the webdav module got me half of the way there, but I had to full kill off webdav publishing to get it to work.
We also had to add this to the web.config:
<system.webServer>
<webdav>
<authoring enabled="false" />
</webdav>
Once that was done we were good to go.
I've linked to this data from the troubleshooting page. Also, the support forum has some information about AtomSite hosted on Godaddy.
