Hello,
I have the following issue:
I have created an ASP website with a silverlight application.Everything works fine in my local host but when i publish the site via ftp in a webserver i get an error HTTP 403 from the webserver.Everything seems fine in my ASP configuration.
Note that if i publish only the ASP website without the silverlight applications the site works fine.
What is the problem?Does this problem has anything to do with the MIME types on the webserver.Should i contact them and tell them to update the MIME types on their IIS service so it recognises the .xaml and .xap filetypes or this isn't the problem?
Thanks in advance.

An HTTP 403 error means Forbidden so sound like there is a permission error on the server. You should have them check the mime types are setup also but I do not think that is the problem

Yes, MIME type does matter.
Extension: .xap
MIME: application/x-silverlight-app
