I am wondering having clear web.config file could be good but you know some shared web hosting companies don't allow us to touch things like machine.config and etc.
So If a lot of things have been moved onto machine.config, then will we be allowed to change things like we used to through web.config file.
I'm preparing to deploy a ASP.NET web application. The target server has already a previous version of my web application with parameters specified on the web.config file.
In the new version of this web application, the web.config file contains new sections I would like they appear into the target web.config file on the server.
However I can't find the way to merge the new web.config sections into the existing web.config file ?
Does I have to do it programmatically, or is there a tool to merge the both files during installation ? (I'm using Web Setup Project).
I have one doubt Can we access one web.config file to another web.config file in asp.net
View 6 RepliesCurrently, I work on an ASP.NET project which is hosted under version control and is used on several developer machines, tester machine and production environment.
In three cases, configuration (Web.config) may be different. For example, developer and tester environments use testing SQL Server, whereas in production environment, another SQL Server is accessed, so the connection string is different in those cases.
We want to keep three versions of Web.config in subversion. But modifying each of three files every time we need to add, remove or change a common setting is annoying: it would be nice to have a common, master Web.config, which will be inherited by each of the three Web.config files.
How to set up an ASP.NET project which will use a master configuration file and different slave configuration files on different machines, thus sharing the same project/source code/configuration files in subversion?
When I open my ASP.NET site in IIS and try to open the .NET Trust Levels, I get an error message:
.NET Trust Levels There was an error while performing this operation.
Details:
Filename: ?C:inetpubwwwrootmyappweb.config
Line number: 445
Error: This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by default (overrideModeDefault="Deny"),or set explicitly by a location tag with overrideMode="Deny" or the legacy allowOverride="false".
I've checked a few places, but I haven't found anything that seems like it would be locking that setting. Is there a systematic way of determining where that setting is locked?
I'm using IIS 7.5 and .NET 3.5 sp1.
I have many Connection strings in my web.config file. I also have a "dataConfiguration" setting in the same file which specifies what database my app connects to.
How do I read the "defaultDatabase" setting / section from the, see below xml file.

I am developing web applicaiton. I want to read web.config in App.config file. I have appSettings and connectionStrings in web.config. How to read that?
View 10 RepliesIs it possible to have separate config files for specific sections of the web.config? Specifically I'd like to move IIS 7's rewrite section out of the web.config and into it's own config file.
View 3 RepliesIt is known that we use web.config file to override the setting of machine.config file.
a) how come machine.config file knows that only changes made in web.config file are to be overwritten. I mean to say, if I use some other name for the config file say xyz.config, will it be able to work?
b) How does machine.config file know about web.config? Is there any link mentioned inside the machine.config file for that?
I have built an ASP.NET (.NET v4) application in VS 2010. It is working just fine. But when I try to create deployment package (so I can deploy it in our test IIS 7.5 Server), it gives me error like this,
Error 1 Could not open Source file: Could not find file 'C:11-2 estobjDebugCSAutoParameterize ransformedWeb.config'. 0 0 test
Thing is in past, I had deployed the SAME application using the SAME method.
In my project i wants to display report and export it in pdf format so that i used rdlc but now my requirement is that there are some labels like name,address for it i wants to give some specific margin from left right(x,y) and i wants to give this margin by config file. "how can we set margin in rdlc from cofig file or run time?"
View 1 RepliesI am encrypying my .NET config file using this command and it works just fine:
aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStrings" -app "/SampleApplication"
For this to work though I have to have a virtual directory called SampleApplication pointing to the folder my web.config file is under.
Is there a way to just specify the path to the file and not have to have a virtual dir?
I tried with
aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStrings" -location "c:FoldercontainingWebConfigFile"
but i get the error: " path attribute must be a relative virtual path". And cannot contain any of ":" "" etc...
I am looking here:
[URL]
by looking at using the XmlDocument and creating elements and attributes and then inserting them into the document. Pretty soon this looked like a massive amount of work for all the elements I have to add.What are the repercussions of treating the config file as one big long text string and doing a replace at certain points to add my entries. Something like this...
private void InsertXMLElement()
{
StringBuilder webConfig = new StringBuilder();
// get the file into a stringbuilder for manipulation
using (var sr = new StreamReader("C:web.config"))
{
webConfig.Append(sr.ReadToEnd());
I'm considering to host WCF Rest Service that i've built on IIS 7. The URL to access my service will be something like

Recently, i've been looking to some REST API implementation with a clean URL like Yahoo API
[URL]
I'm wondering what will be the best WCF host environment (e.g. Windows Service) or any solution (e.g. URL rewrite module) considering that I dont want to have application name and .svc in my URL so that I can have a completely clean URL for my REST API
I'm using asp.net/C# and I'm looking to create unique(?) uris for a small CMS system I am creating.
I am generating the uri segment from my articles title, so for example if the title is "My amazing article" the uri would be www.website.com/news/my-amazing-article
There are two parts to this. Firstly, which characters do you think I need to strip out? I am replacing spaces with "-" and I think I should strip out the "/" character too. Can you think of any more that might cause problems? "?" perhaps? Should I remove all non-alpha characters?
Second question, above I mentioned the uris MAY need to be unique. I was going to check the uri list before adding to ensure uniqueness, however I see stack overflow uses a number plus a uri. This I assume allows titles to be duplicated?
My C# site allows users to submit HTML to be displayed on the site. I would like to limit the tags and attributes allowed for the HTML, but am unable to figure out how to do this in .net.
I've tried using Html Agility Pack, but I don't see how to modify the HTML, I can see how to go through the HTML and find certain data, but actually generating an output file is baffling me.
Does anyone have a good example for cleaning up HTML in .net? The agility pack might be the answer, but the documentation is lacking.
when I reference a assembly. It's reference gets added to the project file in my case ( ABC.csproj)
Also when I take a look at the web.config file there is a section called <assemblies>. And lot of assemblies are added there.
What is the difference between link to the assemblies in the Project file and the assemblies in the web.config file?
There is an image for the surface, and a text is written on the image for 184 rows of date..
Thus, it is expected to see 184 different text written image files are generated with all the same background images. (The code is declared below...)
The problem is that the first text is written for all 184 different data.. I think I have to remove something in the loop. But what is that ??
[Code]....
Is there a better way to write the code below? I have quite a few blocks that are similar, and this is making the code in the Viewpage very messy to work with. The data value with the associated label only needs to be output when certain conditions are met, which is almost always if the value is not null. The options I can think is to use a response.write to atleast minimize the usage of the ASP script tags, or to format the webpage is such a way that the label displays with an appropriate n/a type value.
<% if (myData.Balance != null)
{ %>
Balance: <%= String.Format("{0:C}", (myData.Balance))%>
<% } %>
I once asked for a way to let a linkbutton pass more than one value in the commandArgument and then I reached the approach where I pass a string of multiple values separated by any character and split it into it's original parts...that didn't work out I don't know what was wrong with the splitting!
Now I tried the only solution I got, which is created a user control of the LinkButton and add properties to accept any values nedeed!...could you please tell me what's wrong with my 2 approaches and which is better ?
The first question can be found here : link text
and this is the code for the user control approach >>
MultivaluedLinkButton.ascx :
<asp:LinkButton ID="LnkBtnSort" runat="server" Text="Sort" OnClick="LnkBtnSort_Clicked"/>
MultivaluedLinkButton.ascx.cs :
public partial class MultivaluedLinkButton : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
public event EventHandler Click;
private int _sortingType;
private string _sortingFactor;
private string _text;
public int SortingType
{
set { _sortingType = value; }
get { return _sortingType; }
}
public string SortingFactor
{
set { _sortingFactor = value; }
get { return _sortingFactor.ToString(); }
}
//public string Text
//{
// set { _text = value; }
// get { return _text.ToString(); }
//}
protected void LnkBtnSort_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if( Click != null )
{
this.Click(this, EventArgs.Empty);
}
}
}
Finally, Here's the implementation of my control inside an aspx page:
protected void MultivaluedLinkButton1_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MultivaluedLinkButton ctrl = (MultivaluedLinkButton)sender;
using (SqlConnection cn1 = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["testConnectionString"].ConnectionString))
{
using (SqlCommand cm1 = new SqlCommand(commandString2, cn1))
{
cm1.Parameters.Add("@arrange_by_id", System.Data.SqlDbType.Int);
cm1.Parameters["@arrange_by_id"].Value = ctrl.SortingType;
cn1.Open();
using (SqlDataReader dr1 = cm1.ExecuteReader())
{
SortBy_rpt.DataSource = dr1;
SortBy_rpt.DataBind();
}
}
}
}
The item template of the repeater in the implementation page :
<ItemTemplate>
<uc1:MultivaluedLinkButton ID="MultivaluedLinkButton1" runat="server" OnClick="MultivaluedLinkButton1_Clicked" SortingType='<%#Eval("arrange_by_id")%>' />
</ItemTemplate>
I would like to add html attributes to form inputs, specifically disabled="disabled" in addition to others. I have conditional logic in the Controller that determines whether to add this html attribute or not that sets a bool IsDisabled flag in my ViewModel e.g.
class ViewModel
{
bool IsDisabled {get;set;}
}
So in my View, I want to do something like:
<%= Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Data, new {maxlength = 30, IsDisabled ? disabled = "disabled": null}) %>
or rather something like
<%= Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Data, new Dictionary<string, object>().Add("maxlength", "30").AddConditional("disabled", "disabled", IsDisabled) %>
Except that Add returns void, and there is no such thing as AddConditional. Is there something like an MVC HtmlAttributeBuilder class, or should I just extend Dictionary with these two extension methods?
I haven't been able to find a post about this, but the HTMLEditor is finally a rich text editor that properly removes word formatting without messaging up other stuff (thank god!). However, because I know my users, I would like for this 'paste as word' mode to be always on whenever they paste, how can I accomplish this?
View 2 RepliesI am completely new to ASP.NET programming, and was asked to work on a small project involving ASP.NET, VB (which I am new to as well) and Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
Being used to php/java I was hoping to find some kind of similar API to php.net and the javadoc. It would be very useful to have as I would prefer to work with a text editor, instead of using DreamWeaver or Visual Web Developer.
In the project I basically only need to use ASP.NET to read from a SQL 2005 database and write to JSON files.
how can we clean text boxs after do request ajax.
