[SOLVED] Problem with CSS on IIS7 - 404 error

[seadragon]

Hi!

I've installed CMSMS 1.8.1 on IIS7 all seems to works fine... except the internal pages of the websites.

i mean that HOMEPAGE i right... any other internal page is displayed without the main css...
in firebug i see that all the css are correctly loaded but the first returns 404 error.

you can give here a try

http://REMOVED_FOR_PRIVACY/temp/cache/Layout_Leftsidebar+1column_1241982360.css

i checked the file exist and have correct permissions (as othere css in the same folder that are correctly loaded without errors.

i contacted hosting support and they said that probably is a bug of cmsms

can you tell me more on this?

Thanks!

AFTER 2 DAYS (i have the problem since 2 days) i discovered the problem!!!

simply IIS7 don't support filenames with special chars!!

the css url contains "+" and this is not recognized! so the url request fail!!

Do you know how to solve it on IIS7 or how to say to CMSMS to NOT USE that special chars??

byes!

SOLVED FOR NOW

As Hosting services will not edit entire SERVER preference to make IIS accept special char (this enable securityi issues) the only solution is to RENAME the CSS FILES

Go to LAYOUT -> STYLESHEETS
and rename all Stylesheets replacing the "+" chars with anyother (i replaced "+" with "-")

IT WORKS!
