3.2.4 [applications]

The [applications] keyword defines a section where you may specify information on how Chili!Soft ASP handles ASP applications. There are several ways to define an ASP application to Chili!Soft ASP. For more details, see the Defining ASP Applications topic under ASP Applications in the ASP Reference chapter.
 
Parameters
use_aliases
If use_aliases=no, then the virtual directories or aliases defined in the Web server configuration file will not be treated as ASP applications by Chili!Soft ASP. If use_aliases=yes, then any virtual directory or alias defined in the Web server configuration file will be treated as an ASP application.
config_name
Optional. This parameter allows you to specify the name of the ASP User Configuration file. Any applications defined in this file will be dynamically recognized by Chili!Soft ASP, without requiring Chili!Soft ASP to be restarted. If config_name=.aspconf, for example, Chili!Soft ASP will look for this filename in the document root of the Web server. Entries in the config_name file should use the following format:

/[appname] = "/path/to/app/home/directory"

There are two limitations on applications defined in the ASP User Configuration file. First, the files in the application must be located within the document root of the Web server. Second, the directory containing the Global.asa file may not be below the top-level directory of the Web server's document root.
/appname
Optional. To define an application for Chili!Soft ASP, use the following format:

/[appname] = "/path/to/app/home/directory"

If no applications are defined in the [applications] section, then Chili!Soft ASP will treat the root directory of the Web server as the location of the "default" ASP application.
