Silverlight 5 PivotViewer control rendering locally on server but not remotely


I have deployed a Silverlight 5 PivotViewer web app that runs successfully on the development machine to a server running IIS 6.0. On that server, the application in a browser runs successfully from localhost. If, on the server, I browse to the html file directly, I get a blank pivotviewer control rendered (as if it can't find my cxml file) Remotely, I get the same response, a blank pivotviewer control loads. I can access the cxml file remotely via http. However, for one reason or another, the pivotviewer comes up empty. Please help!


Solution

  • Add the CXML, DZI and DZC MIME type to your webserver :

    appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.cxml',mimeType='text/xml']
    
    appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.dzc',mimeType='text/xml']
    
    appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.dzi',mimeType='text/xml']
