Integrating IF.NET with current application

tacf — Fri, 15 Jul 2005 12:19:32 GMT

We have an existing web application in .NET and would like to integrate the forums into it, consolidating the user logins into the one that we are currently using for our own application.

However, I am relatively new to .NET and to the forums. I understand that we can only have the one IIS application which is our existing one. So I moved the forum application into a subfolder of our parent application as well as the web.config and the global.asax files and moved the contents of the forums\bin folder into the parent \bin folder. But this doesn't seem to be working. I want to login and redirect the user to the main page of the forum in my application, but I am kind of stuck. I am making calls to the UserLogin method and it seems to work, but I've noticed that it doesn't seem to be sharing the session. As well, trying to direct the logged in user to 'http://host/forums' (the forums application) doesn't go anywhere as the bin folder is no longer in the directory.

It's probably a case where it's right in front of my nose and I can't see it as I've been at this for a while now. If anyone could help me out, I would be grateful. In terms of working within the Visual Studio environment, do I need to include the InstantForums project as part of the solution of my existing application?

Thanks,

Nathaniel
