uploaded images to version 1.1 do not get displayed.

I've been trying to get this to work for the past few days, without any luck.

Here are some details...
if an image file is placed on the filesystem then it shows up fine.
but if I go to the Admin, edit images, I am able to upload images, but they do not display.
more specifically, if I upload file say a.gif, the upload works correctly but the thumbnail image is that red X.
if I click on the thumbnail the site requests the following URL http://prague-spring.org/a.gif, and I get a 404 response.

I tried to do some debugging on my local web server by setting breakpoints in ImageHandler.cs and DisplayImage.cs but the breakpoints were never activated.

my Web.config looks like this
<configuration>
<configSections>
<sectionGroup name="communityStarterKit">
<section name="Isp" type="ASPNET.StarterKit.Communities.CommunitiesSectionHandler,ASPNET.StarterKit.Communities" />
<section name="pagePaths" type="ASPNET.StarterKit.Communities.CommunitiesSectionHandler,ASPNET.StarterKit.Communities" />

It sounds like you are missing the image mappings from IIS. There are a bizillion posts in the CSK forum on this topic. There is also information in the documentation that ships with the GCN.

Or you can look at the CSK FAQ entry here:

http://www.colin-munford.me.uk/community/Programming/CSK+FAQ/380.aspx

1) In IIS, go to the properties of your website.

2) Go to the "Home Directory" tab and click the configuration button

3) On the Application Configuration form, you will see on the Mappings tab a list of all the extensions used within the site. You will probably find that .jpg & .gif are not in the list.

4) If the extensions are not there, add them. To do this, click Add, enter C:\Windows\Microsoft.net\framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_isapi.dll for the executable and GET,POST,HEAD,DEBUG for the verbs. Select the Script Engine checkbox.


I had the exact same problem and this soved it for me.'

Had the same problem. Image files wound up being corrupted somehow. Downloaded another set of code and uploaded images. Problem solved.
