如何允许 IIS express 访问任何文件扩展名

Question

I have multiple images but i have changed the extension for my own purpose. So I have multiple extension. When I try to display my image I got an error that my extension is not mapped to a mime type. So how can I display my image without changing the extension because I have a lot. With Apache wamp server I tested all images and it can be displayed.

Then with IIS express included within visual studio 2017, is there a way to do the mapping. I also did the mapping individually but this cannot be good solution for me because I have many images file.

Answer 1

You can change the config file that IIS express use it:

1. Right click on IIS Express icon on traybar then click on " Show All Application "

2. Select your application name and click on config address in bottom of application list.

3. Opened file contains xml elements. you must find " staticConten " element then add your intended mapping.

Answer 2

If you run iisexpress.exe from the command line, the config file it uses will be in AppServer/applicationhost.config . Add the mime types you need to that file in the section <staticContent> and restart iisexpress.
