So I've created an asp.net web application on the same server the sharepoint site is located on. If I create an Access view of a list on the sharepoint site, which will then create an Access Database, can I then use that Access database in an access data source in my web application?
If not, what's the best method of attack to access sharepoint list data from thisasp.net app?
I've built a new sharepoint site page using the example I found here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2010/06/28/creating-a-sharepoint-site-page-with-code-behind-using-visual-studio-2010.aspx.The purpose of the page is to add a new user to the aspnet membership database that serves as the authentication provider for my sharepoint site,which uses forms based authentication.I've slightly customized the asp createuser control.The sharepoint site is forms based but the top level site is accessible anonymously, and I've created a subsite for members (hence the user registration page). The site page is in the top level site so that people can register.If I'm already logged in and fill out the form, the user is successfully added to the membership store, however if I access the page anonymously and fill out the form, the user is successfully added to the membership database, but I can no longer navigate the website,I keep getting http 500 page cannot be displayed errors until I clear the browser cache and cookies.
I need to build a Q&A module for a .net site. I need it to integrate with our .net membership system. We are happy to pay for it... but all I have found so far is php code and the QHub hosted system, which would be a problem to integrate with out members.
View 6 RepliesSharepoint's lists functionality is powerful. Because I don't want all the other functionality of Sharepoint, I have been looking for an alternative (preferrable open source) without much success.
Basically I want to have a platform or web application that:
allows us to define custom datatypes (for different kinds of customer products) has the possibility to create views or forms to present to the user for reading, creating or updating the information of the items of a given datatype a ui to setup this configuration is not required but would be nice to have
In an ideal scenario there is an API to get the data out afterwards for further processing.
I'm trying desperately to move from VSS to a real source control system. Options include TFS and SVN.My designers need to keep their ability to modify source files and instantly preview their changes in a browser without having to commit their changes. Using FPSE with VSS, this works flawlessly, since saving a file causes the copy in the working folder on the dev server to be updated, so they can just save and refresh their browser which is pointed at the dev server.The site in question consists of 350k+ lines of classic ASP code and some new ASP.NET MVC. They only need to be able to modify views within the MVC code, not C#. Though Expression includes a version of Cassini for local debugging, Cassini does not support classic ASP. Surely someone has solved this problem before. It can't be necessary to install IIS on each designer's machine (this is absolutely untenable). I need a way to have a common working folder on a dev webserver updated whenever someone saves a file locally, just like using FPSE.
View 2 RepliesNow, I've refactored my code to have a data layer, business layer and the main project as the view layer. Next I'd like to split this big project smaller projects based on discrete functionality. As I understand it, one way to handle a shared masterpage is to copy it into each project, that's not the worst thing, it hasn't changed in over a year and if it does it's easy enough to propagate the changes out to the other projects.
I was also reading that I could create an assembly from my master page and share it that way. My masterpage.aspx has a reference to a asp.net sitemap, Unlike the masterpage I'd like to maintain only one site map if possible.
I have created firstly ASP.NET MVC 2. and write more functionality. After I create asp.NET Dynamic Data Site. now, when I click on run button in Visual Studio, mvc app. opened in browser as [URL]. and asp.NET Dynamic Data Site as [URL]. but i want to merge this app. in one. can I use asp.NET Dynamic Data Site and asp.NET MVC-2 at the same time?
View 1 RepliesI have a preexisting asp.net site that uses forms authentication. I am setting up a Sharepoint 2007 site on the same box. I would like to use my existing asp.net site authentication and once logged in provide a link to the sharepoint site that has the user auto-logged in.It doesn't matter to me if Windows or Forms auth is used. I tried a couple different things to pass credentials through the response, but was unable to obtain success. Has anyone done anything similar. The tutorials for configuring forms auth on sharepoint just seem over the top and quite unreasonable.
View 2 RepliesSuppose I created a custom web application that consists of: several assembly DLLs: web app, business logic, data services multiple aspx pages and ascx custom controls that use them custom configuration section custom HTTP module. More or less the usual stuff. I would like to deploy it to a particular sharepoint site under a certain subfolder. So if I access my sharepoint site via [URL] (because I'm not using sites/some_site) I'd like my application to be available under [URL]
I could manually add a virtual folder (not application because I would need to access some Sharepoint site's data) to my sharepoint site in IIS and manually edit site's web.config file to register my HTTP module and add my custom configuration section as well either putting my DLLs into GAC or put them in the _app_bin (so I don't have problems with CAS), but I don't think that's a good thing to do, because this web application may get deployed in an environment where this shouldn't/couldn't be possible. So I figured I could build a WSP using Visual Studio 2010 and deploy it that way. But I don't have enough experience doing that.
I created a new sharepoint 2010 project. Is there a way I could add all non-executable application files (aspx, ascx) at once? I've seen the advanced tab of the WSP package where I can add my DLLs either to bin folder or GAC. I don't know whether I would also have to add any safe control and register certain classes?So I suppose I need some pretty detailed and explanatory guidance here.
I have the .aspx page wich is already developed in VS 2008 with its code behind. page name is say login.aspx.

View 2 RepliesBasically I want to take the following:And make it match the styling of the rest of the application.I am creating a custom error page in my C# based project and I want it to be able to show the same information that is displayed in the ASP.NET default error page. From fiddling with reflector I can see that this is generated through HttpException.GetHtmlErrorMessage() but when I try to use this in my exception it returns null.
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to share the claims based authentication of a logged in Sharepoint 2010 user with a separate Asp.net application?
The following article describes how it was done using Sharepoint 2007 and forms authentication through forms auth and sharing machine keys etc however I cannot find any information regarding the external application consuming the claims authentication that is now used in Sharepoint 2010?

I am new to developing asp.net. I have a Microsoft Access database file (.mdb) I am including as a data source on a form. This populates a drop down list on the page. When I run the page in a browser it immediately asks for authentication. If I put in my windows username and password the page pulls up fine, and the drop down is populated with the data. If I don't, it just give me a 403 error and says I'm not authorized. I cannot figure out how to make this page stop requiring authentication. I have only tried one thing. In the web.config file there is an attribute called authentication. It was set to "Windows" I tried setting it to "None" but that did not appear to have any effect. It still asked for my username and password. How can I make an asp web page using a Microsoft Access data source not reqire user authentication to view the web page?
View 1 RepliesNewer to ASP (not VB). Running VS 2010 Ult. Basically I just need pointed in the right direction for what I am trying to accomplish. I am trying to setup a site where a user can create an account, log in and have access to only their "home page". On that home page I want them to be able to have access to their data and their data only. I have created the web site and the login, create user, change password, ect. pages using the built in controls, problem is that about the extent of my ASP'ing.
I would just like pointed in the right direction to be able to code this. Not asking for someone else to do it for me, I want to learn this on my own. I just need pointed somewhere to get me started with member pages and what not.PS - This is what I am looking to doCreate account -> Automatically create user folder and home page within -> Restrict access to only the new user and the admin

View 7 RepliesI'm new to ASP.net 3.5 and trying to create a test site so I can figure out how to use it in the real world. I have created a FormView (Formview1) based on a Client table using Linq Data Sources. The page includes a DropDownList to lookup Clients. I have added a list option (<asp:ListOption value="" Text="(Select Client)" and set AppendDataBoundItems=true so my added option is displayed. I decided to try to use Formview with only the Edit and Insert Modes, and I have set the Default Mode = Insert. When you open the page, a blank Client record is displayed.
The Client record contains serveral lookup fields and they have drop down lists for each. When I select a client from the Client DropDownList, is get the following message 'ddlClientType' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items I had this problem before and decided the best way to handle this (in the interim) was to turn off foreign key constraints for each of the lookup fields (e.g. ClientType) in SQL Server. That worked for 2-3 days. Now the problem has started again.
When I develop in other applications, I would simply create a lookup data source based on a Union Query with the actual data and a blank record. How can you do this using Linq DataSources. Can you get access and modify the queries?
I used to deploy developed web parts to a remote sharepoint site by Build->Deploy menu inside Visual Studio 2008 months ago ( I am not a regular web part developer). My network engineer also asked me how to deploy web parts without stsadm commands. anyway now I can't. Visual Studio keeps complaining that the specified site doesn't have sharepoint site contained. "No SharePoint Site exists at the specified URL."
After googling, it is said web parts can't be deployed to remote sharepoint sites from visual studio. Only can to local site. However I did it before. Visual Studio 2008 service pack or hot fix made this feature (remote deploy) removed? Or is there any workaround?
I am running:
Windows Server 2008
MS SQL Server 2008
MS SQL Server Native Client 2008
I need to create an ODBC Data Name Source. The instructions on microsoft site are not explicit enough.
I can successfully run a sample report on the local computer. DataSource and Report are valid it renders perfect.
But when i move my DataSource and Report to Remote server which is hosted by a company, then i always receive following error!. It is really disgusting.
An error occurred during client rendering.
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'DataSource1'.
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
We have a link in our site that pin points to sharepoint documents and we are retreiving some documents files (*.doc). Our sharepoint uses IWA (integrated windows authentication) which is prompted if we're trying to access that documents, unfortunately we don't want to prompt that window to authenticate the user. We need is to create a username and password and authenticate it. how can we do that.
Note* we have 2 server one for our application and the other one is for sharepoint.
