My boss recently asked me if I could move our website outside of the wwwroot folder and place it into "C:\\MySite", on windows server 2003. I tried doing so, and setting this up in IIS 6, but had no luck. The website wouldn't start up, so I placed the site back into wwwroot.
So I have 2 questions: One, is there any disadvantage to moving a website outside of the wwwroot folder? I found it peculiar the site works fine in wwwroot, but won't start outside of it...and two, if there's no disadvantage, how can I get IIS to run the website properly if outside wwwroot?
Thanks.
