Hi there,
I'm trying to move a working Silverlight website to a Windows server 2003 SP2. But it doesn't work(http://vgg.unidev.com/misc/chrono_book.html). The same application is working just fine on a Windows Server 2003 SP1. http://vgg.dev.unidev.com/misc/chrono_book.html
If I use IE on this 2003 SP2 to silverlight.net, it wouldn't show me download icon for Silverlight 1.0 RC (this is the first time to use Silverlight on this box). I went to download page manually and install Silverlight 1.0 RC. Installation was successful. But after I restart IE and go to silverlight.net, IE still can't show Silverlight components. Is this a security issue?
All help are highly appreciated.
George

What version of IE are you using on the 2003 SP 2 machine?
08-17-2007 5:29 PM |
IE 7.0.5730.11

Can you clarify what you mean when you said that the Silverlight download icon does not appear on silverlight.net (is it replaced with a blank space, red ex, nothing at all, white square, et cetera), or take a screen shot of how the page appears (screen shot would be better)?

In fact, I'm not going to view Silverlight on this box, as it's a server for web hosting only. My goal is to make my Silverlight site running on this server. It just shows a black window after I move the site to this box - http://vgg.unidev.com/misc/chrono_book.html. Not sure whether the issue on IE is related to this problem? Does Silverlight require any sepcial server configuration? The web server is configured as an ASP.NET 2.0 site.

It looks like you have Javascript disabled on your browser to me, can you check if it is disabled or not?
I don't know if it requires any special configuration. I don't think it should besides setting the mime types and what not.

You are right. After I add http://silverlight.net to Trusted sites, it works fine now.
But my Silverlight app is still not working on this box. Do I need to install anything for a Silverlight site? Or any security setting?
Thanks a lot!!!

Hi Daniel,
Any suggestions, thoughts?

Problem solved. It's a MIME type issue. After I add MIME type for xaml, my Silverlight app works just fine.
See http://blog.unidev.com/index.php/2007/08/18/possible-issue-for-hosting-a-silverlight-website/ for details.
Thanks a lot Daniel for your help!
