In Windows server, I have configured a network share in DFS under namespace as networkservershare1.
Mapped the DFS Share(servershare1) as Local Drive (H: Drive)
Application is configured in IIS as WEB site.
In Application configuration,
As per the architect application should point application source from locally mapped H: Drive/...
When i hit the url, web application say - application source not found.
Application Source configuration(directory) : Source Point to H:Drive...
--
If I configure the source directory to point Servershare1 - Application is working.
Only when the application points to H:drive... - Application is not working.
Verified permissions are given as per requirement. Same setup is working properly in other environments. Only in this server, issue occurs.
Am I missing anything ?

You need to use UNC paths, as mapped drives are simply not supported, blog.lextudio.com/…

@LexLi, Same Set up is working in other servers(Production & Dev). This issue is in Testing Env Server only. It was working properly, suddenly stopped working.

"is working" does not change the fact that it is not supported by Microsoft. That's it.
