PivotViewer with IIS Express

Question

Has anybody had any luck getting the PivotViewer control to work when running under VS2010 IIS Express? All I get is a blank screen. Works fine when run under Casini though?

Did u check with the fiddler the response? May be some security issue.

Answer 2

Thanks Senthamil,

I ran Fiddler and could see that IIS Express did not recognise the mime types for .cxml, .dzc and .dzi. Once I added these mime types to IIS Express it works as expected (in fact, it renders much quicker than Casini which is what I was aiming for).

The commands I ran to add the mime types are here just in case it helps anyone else out...

C:\Program Files\IIS Express\ appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.cxml',mimeType='text/xml']

C:\Program Files\IIS Express\ appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.dzc',mimeType='text/xml']

C:\Program Files\IIS Express\ appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.dzi',mimeType='text/xml']
