.Net 1.1 - Medium Trust

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/.Net 1.1 - Medium Trust

I've just migrated my ASP.Net (v1.1) web sites to a new UK based host. All of their shared hosted sites "live" in a medium trust environment, as recommended by Microsoft. Unfortunately, my site don't run in this turst level. TBH, I wasn't even aware of the various tust levels until I encountered this problem.

After playing around with "things", I discovered that the problem areas appear to be MS's own Enterprise Library (I use the data access block) and Blowery's HTTP compression module. I'll be replacing the EntLib with my own data access layer (unless someone knows how to get it working in medium trust).

I'd really like to get Blowery's (superb) HTTP compression module working though, because it saves me a heap in bandwidth consumption each month. Does anyone have any ideas of how to get this module working in medium trust? Is anyone experience in the ways of the medium turst level?

FYI, as my sites are running in a shared environment, I can't unable to place the required files in the GAC unfortunately :(

Thanks in advance.

Eh?

Sure, OK, that's fine.

Might be a host-related thing, ask the ISP to make exception of this moduleshould be more reliable way.

My website uses php with gzip enabled, for many reasons I switched to php and stick to it.

I've not dabbled with PHP, although I have been tempted to. I like working with C# tbh and, for the most part, the .Net framework has served me well.

Microsoft recommends medium trust for shared hosting, so I'll work at getting my site to work with it. I'll try strongly naming the compression assembly...
