.net - Obfuscate Web App Before Publishing?
Mar 10, 2010
I have a Visual Studio 2008 solution with number of DLLs and web application uses them as a main project. It's a commercial banking and accounting software (thin client) and I don't want a client getting access to the source in circumvention of mine.I want to obfuscate all resulting assemblies before publishing them onto a web server via menu Publish.How can I do that? How to insert obfuscating step before building and publishing? Using msbuild?Edit:But my question is more about concrete task (obfuscating in VS on publishing) than about obfuscating in general.

I need to obfuscate a dll that is used in a ASP.NET project, the deployment project pruduces a setup.exe which I want to distribute. I have the VS 2008 Dotfuscator installed but when I build the deployment project the project that creates the dll is rebuilt before it is added to the deployment project and added to the setup.exe.

I'm new to the forum and to ASP.NET. Is there a way to obfuscate code with VWD?
I read about Dotfuscator but it appears it's only available for Visual Studio. I searched the forum but did not see a solution fro VWD.

I am trying to publish an MVC 2 site in Visual Studio 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2.
As I read to do, I expand References and select:
- System.Web.MVC
- System.Web.Routing
- System.Web.Abstractions and set Copy Local to True.
Then I right click the MVC Web Project and select Publish. I select Publish Method of File System. This publishes to the local file directory I specified in a compiled down version. My first question is this: The MVC specific references whose Copy Local I set to true do not show up in the published bin file like I thought they were supposed to do. Now when I copy the files over to production it does not work.
For the top level [URL] I get: 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
For [URL] I get: 404 - File or directory not found. The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
For [URL] I get: 500 - Internal server error. There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. Can someone point me to the right way to do this?

Using VWD 2010 Express.We are using SVN for versioning control and so there are folder .svn in each of the project source code folder(eg. App_Data, Views, ...). These .svn folders also get published into the deployed location. Anyway can I set up a filter to exclude these .svn folders when do a Publish?

if i have a separate dll for each page on my server and that is working fine. if I make some changes in code behind file of a particular page say, xyz.aspx page. then I have to upload the dll of that particular page. and that refreshes the whole web application and all sessions and other values got disturbed in the application. Is there any way that uploading the xyz.dll (of page xyz.apsx) on refreshes the xyz.aspx and didn't disturb the whole web application.

When I publish my new web application onto the localhost, my error handling class did not get published with it. Therefore when I go to run the code, the site crashes out because it cannot find the class in the 'App_Data' directory.
Two of the pages (aspx) refer to the class using the following code.

I take it I am missing some referencing step.

This is what my website looks like:
When I build the website and upload everything as it is, I get this error:
Quote:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) I guess I have to deploy Database, or?

have a problem when published web application in IIS.
First of all, I converted my web application from 2008 version in 2010 version of visual studio, but I didn't change the framework, so framework is 3.5. This application is writen in c#.net.
I published it succesfully in IIS. The problem is that this application run , but when I try to login , it remain in the same page , so I cant login ,cant go inside my application. It seems like the server redirect the browser in the same conten page.

I recently came aware of some knowledge I was not aware of before. One of my friends said that publishing a website with the code behind is a security risk. Instead, he insisted I only publish with the DLL's to prevent hackers from altering your code. Is this true? What are the advantages and disadvantages for doing this?

I hv a query regarding publishing the website. I use aspnet2.0 and for uploading we use filezilla.
Whenever I make any changes to my website (either in aspx or aspx.cs page), I need to upload the entire website (along with my bin folder, after publishing)again otherwise my site just doesnt work.Its very time consuming.

Client has a bunch of Access databases and associated reports.
He wants to make the reports available (live, not snapshots) via a secure extranet.
He's willing to recreate the reports using a proprietary GUI if necessary, but ideally would like a solution that exports his reports "as is" to the web.
Had a look at Caspio Bridge. It's pretty slick but doesn't appear to offer grouping and summing (key requirement) without a nasty Javascript hack - seems like a rather glaring omission to me!
I'm an ASP.NET developer so if there's coding involved, an ASP.NET based solution would be preferred.

I have installed Web Deployment service on a Windows 2008 machine, started using one click publishing in VS2010 and it works.
With one glitch, even though I change a view only file (like a *.cshtml razor file which is not compiled), web site is restarted. Therefore user sessions are lost. Maybe I am missing something so trivial, because it knows uploading only the changes.
Does anyone know whether restarting can be prevented using one click publishing or not?
If not, suggestions are welcome ^_^

I have various dll's that I am not directly referencing in a ASP.NET website I am attempting to publish via the "Package/Publish Web" feature in Visual Studio 2010.
How can I tell the publishing feature that it needs to include these certain files?
Note that I do not want to directly reference these dll's (the solution has specifically been setup in a way so that these specific dll's are not directly referenced).
I've found a <ExcludeFilesFromDeployment/> but I can't find a way to specifically include files.

I have a web application and when I decided to test on IIS 7 i have this Exception when trying to load a couple of pages that uses Entity Framework 4. I use EF 4 with my own CRUD assemblies but sometimes using the EntityDataSource. I have noticed that the problem is not appearing in all my Web Pages but I think in those that I use the EntityDataSource.
Here's the log from a Page:

I think its the EDM problem but I can't get through.
I should mention that in my development pc is working all perfectly!!!
My controls are DevExpress but I dont think this should play any role!
[EDIT]
Forgot to mention that I use Self tracking Template with the Entities.tt in a separate assembly!
[EDIT 2]
On my local Windows 7 IIS works OK! It's Windows Server 2008 I can't get it done!

I have problem that just started showing up and I have no idea where it is coming from. I am making a website (ffctestsite.com) that uses the CSSFriendly.dll and .browser files to make a menu control look pretty. Unfortunately, it looks great when I preview the page from VS2010, but as soon as I publish it, the menu turns into a text menu and it doesn't render any of the ul's and li's that I expect to see. If you go to [URL] I've posted a picture of the code before and after publishing. I am using .net 3.5 because my host is slow at adopting new frameworks versions, but it worked until about a week ago. It just stopped working after that.

The Scenario:
I have a situation where I need to pass some session variables to an ASPX page, inside a DNN module. This page is then transferred to Winnovative's PDF publishing component's in the form of a byte array. The component returns a PDF document in the result, furthermore that PDF document is then emailed to the customer.
The Problem:
The session gets expired when the ASPX page is called (hosted as a part of DNN web project on IIS) to pass it to Winnovative. It was noticed that the session expired when ever I request the page (by any means) and a new session on that page is created.
Is there any workaround (without involving a database) that I can access those session variables (it is a dataset) from that particular ASP.NET page?
