EPiServer Community 4, Composer 4 and Mail 5 now supports ASP.NET 4.0
One month back we announced that EPiServer CMS 6 supports running on the ASP.NET 4 platform. Read more about that as well as some of the advantages with ASP.NET 4 in Allan Thræn’s article.
Today we are announcing that the following products also support ASP.NET 4.0:
To run each of these products on ASP.NET 4 you need to make the following configuration changes:
EPiServer Community 4
Make the following changes for EPiServer Community 4 in Web.config:
- Remove sectionGroup System.Web.Extensions since it will conflict with same sectionGroup defined in machine.config:
<sectionGroup name="system.web.extensions">... </sectionGroup> - Remove the current HttpHandler for the IndexingService:
<handlers>
<clear/>
…
<add name="svc-Integrated" path="*.svc" verb="*" type="System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpHandler, System.ServiceModel, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" resourceType="Unspecified" preCondition="integratedMode"/>
…
</handlers>
Add a new handler which reflects the new assembly that System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpHandler resides in when using .NET 4.0:
<add name="ServiceModel-4.0" path="*.svc" verb="*" type="System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpHandler, System.ServiceModel.Activation, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" preCondition="managedHandler,runtimeVersionv4.0" />
EPiServer Composer 4
Make the following changes for EPiServer Composer 4 in Web.config:
- Add the ScriptResourceHandler to make sure that all scripts are loaded correctly:
<system.webServer>
<handles>
<add name="ScriptResourceHandler" verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" preCondition="integratedMode"/>
</handles>
</system.webServer> - Remove the cross-site scripting protection in asp.net request validation:
<system.web>
<httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0"/>
<pages validateRequest="false" />
</system.web>
EPiServer Mail 5
Make the following changes for EPiServer Mail 5 in Web.config:
- Remove sectionGroup System.Web.Extensions since it will conflict with same sectionGroup defined in machine.config:
<sectionGroup name="system.web.extensions">... </sectionGroup> - Change the redirect for assembly System.Web.Extensions from version 3.5.0.0 to 4.0.0.0.
- Add in EPiServerMail\MailSources\EPiServerMailHTMLEditorMailSource.ascx:13:
<asp:CustomValidator ClientValidationFunction="RadEditorNamespace.SaveAllEditors()//" runat="server" />
before</asp:Panel> - Add the attribute ClientIDMode set to AutoID for ComponentArt:MultiPage in EPiServerMail\MessagePopup.ascx:35:
