I'm experiencing a issue when i deploy the same MVC4 asp.net website to two different IIS7 servers.
On one box when i hit the "home" button for my website i get a trailing backslash and on the other i do not. The problem being , on the box that doesnt append a trailing backslash the jquery autocomplete doesnt work. When i add a backslash , it does. So this is the default behaviour i want. i.e. with backslash.
Both boxes have the same website , with the same web.config , neither iis server has url rewriting installed so i dont want to go down this route if i dont have to. It must be some different iis setting on one box to the other , but i have gone through each and not noticed any difference. Does anyone know offhand what could be causing this or point me in the right direction ?
Any help would be appreciated.
I know there are other questions up here in the same area but none answer my question.
Update:
I have noticed a few questions on stackoverflow around dots in URLs causing backslashes, and i also realised that my server that adds the trailing backslash has a dot/period in it's address. So this looks like it might be causing my issue.
I suppose the correct thing would be to get it working with no trailing slash on both boxes. So now my issue is why is my jquery autocomplete not working on a address with no trailing backslash.
E.G:
http://localhost/MyPortal
http://localhost/ARQ.MyPortal
