Many technologies on one site

Hi all,

I have a web site that contains some virtual directories (the machine is Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6.0).
A few VDs runs under ASP.NET 1.1, another is the classic ASP applications and the site root is ASP.NET 2.0 application.

What is the best way to define application pools for each virtual directory?

Tnx in advance

Hi Bo Chen,

Thank you very much about yor response!

I defined my ASP.NET applications as you recommended, but what about a classic ASP virtual directories?
Whether I need create a different application pool for them or not?


Hi levik,

Step1: Create 2 Application Pools in IIS 6.0, named .net1.1 and .net2.0 respectively;

Step2: For each virtual directory, right click the mouse, then choose "properties" menue item. In the "Application Setting" secion of the "site properties" window, first create an Application Name for the virtual directory, then assign the Application Pool for it. The application Pool could be .net1.1 or .net2.0.

Hope my suggestion helps :)


For classic ASP projects/directories : "Whether I need create a different application pool for them or not? " --> I recommend you to create a new application pool while if you don't, things still work fine (just assign an existing application pool to it, whatever it is) .

Hope my suggestion helps :)
