WebRequest To Read Aspx Page To String, Access Denied?
Oct 24, 2010
I'm trying to make an executable in VS2008 that will read a webpage source code using a vb.NET function into a string variable. The problem is that the page is not *.html but rather *.aspx.
I need a way to execute the aspx and get the displayed html into a string. The page I want to read is any page of this type: [URl]
I have tried the following code, which works properly for html pages, but generates the wrong source code with "access denied" for the page title when I pass in the above aspx page.
Dim myReq As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create(url)
Dim myWebResponse As WebResponse = myReq.GetResponse()
Dim dataStream As Stream = myWebResponse.GetResponseStream()
Dim reader As New StreamReader(dataStream, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8)
Dim responseFromServer As String = reader.ReadToEnd()
I've an XML file stored in App_Data which is only used to read some configuration on startup. When I attempt to open it within my code, I get an Access to the path ... is denied message.
I'm having trouble understanding why, and how to solve it. I guess in theory I should alter the permissions on the file (and directory), but this hasn't changed anything.
To give a bit more background:1. Its a file bundled with the project, so the setup created by VS2008 writes it to the correct place during install. I didn't think I'd need to do anything unusual post install such that the ASP.NET application would have access.
2. When I've tried publishing this locally, I've not had any problems. - This is only on a test Windows 2003 server.
3. I've ran a simple page to understand the effective user of IIS - It is NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE. I tried granting "Full Access" to this user to this file, and still it doesn't work.The code to open it is simple:
FileStream fs = new FileStream(Server.mapPath(s), FileMode.Open);
Where s is defined as '~/App_Data/myfile.xml
I've even copied and pasted the full path & filename (from the exception) and tried "dir" on it, and it is indeed present (to get around a typo for example).I've also tried running aspnet_regiis.exe /s
Now when the guest user tries to access this he is redirected to the Login page. I want the user to either sho a popup that user cannot access it or just stay on the same page with some error message in a label on that page... Here is more code in webconfig
Need to have the server make a POST to an API, how do I add POST values to a WebRequest object and how do I send it and get the response (it will be a string) out?I need to POST TWO values, and sometimes more, I see in these examples where it says string postData = "a string to post"; but how do I let the thing I am POSTing to know that there is multiple form values?
and this database lmslive is in a system next to mine connected via proxy.... And i executed this query on that system,
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON lmslive.* TO 'lmslive'@'10.1.1.15' IDENTIFIED BY 'lmslive' WITH GRANT OPTION; I get the error, Access denied for user 'root'@'XAVY-PANDIYA' (using password: YES).. what am i missing?
byte[] b = YourByteArrayFromDb; File.WriteAllBytes(MyFilePath, b);
But I am receiving an exception "Access to the path is denied". How do I solve this using ASP.Net with C#? And is there any format to set the path as string?
I need to force SSL when going to the final checkout page (for example from default.aspx to checkout.aspx).
I need to pass variables to this check out page and tried to use server.transfer(https://www.mydomain.com/checkout.aspx). I then use previous page .Fincontrol to read text box and label name to this check out page. If I only do the server.transfer("~/checkout.aspx") then my I can read all vakues of my controls from the passing default.aspx page.
But when I force https:// then I cannot read the control values from default.aspx page.
Please give me some tips on how to get control values to the https:// destination page or if you have another tips on how to do it the right way, please let me know.
I've created a web page and it contains some settings value in web.cofig for example images.So i want to give the path of images in Web.Config file and file name in that particular image src. I wanted to read that settings only in aspx page not in codebehind. For example Web.Config: <add key="ImagePath" value=[URL]> and in my aspx page, <img id="ImgHeader" runat="server" src="<%ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ImagePath"]%>" />
I am working in coordination with the pHp developer, he is sending me some username, key at my aspx page and on that basis i am checking the authenticity from the DB, if authentic user then i'll do response.write("YES"), if not then i'll do response.write("NO"). The PHP developer saying that he will read my response.write and on that basis he will allow the user to get logged in to his PHP site. i want to know how will he read My response.write from ASPX page. He was saying he will read it, and will put it in session, i am very confused how will he read my response.write.
I am new to .net, and I am having a problem that, I am having a couple of web pages which are accessed be two types of roles manager and users, my requirement is that any one with user rights should have only read only rights for a particular update.aspx page how can I do this
I have implemented role based security in my asp.net 2.0 vb.net application using windows authentication and the windowstokenroleprovider and limiting access to certain pages using the location tag to specific active directory groups.
The issue is that when a user tries to access a page they are not authorized to view it brings up a login prompt and when it does not pass it takes them to the default page that tells them they are not authorized to view the page. I am wondering if there is a way to throw up a custom page that tells them they are not athorized to view the page that I can incorporate into the site itself with the header and so forth? if this page could come up in lieu of the sign in box popping up as well.

So, which algorithm is best for encrypting of a string (DES, RC2, Triple-DES, RSA, Rijndael(AES)). FYI, Once I encrypt this string from ASPX and this encryption code will be stored in Oracle Access Manager and from Oracle Access Manager Our client need to be decrypted again.
