I have a asp.net web app that needs vfpoledb dll installed on the server to work. I wanted to check to see if this dll is installed and if it isn't display a message and link to install it. I have no idea how to go about this. Can someone give me an example of how to do this check in code for an asp.net C# app?

View 4 RepliesI know this is probably a stupid question and/or has been asked before, but.... I've search through the forum and Google to no avail. I have access to a Windows Server 2008 Standard SP2. It is running IIS 7 and has ASP.NET Frameworks 3.5 SP1 installed.
I have no problem running either Classic .asp pages, Html pages or ASP.Net Webforms. However, when I try to upload and run a MVC application, I get error:Could not load file or assembly 'MvcApplication1' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied.
My question is and I have not been able to find any references online, but does the ASP.NET MVC 2 need to be installed on the Server, like it does on my devopement machine that I'm using VS 2008? If so, what exactly needs to be installed on the server to get the MVC applications to run?
I tried to install MVC2 RC AspNetMVC2_RC_VS2008.exe [URL]? aiming it to use from VS2008SP1(Windows XP Pro SP3) but initially I got an error: Component Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 has failed to install with the following error message: "A different version of ASP.NET MVC 2 is already installed on your system. Please uninstall this version before proceeding with this install." The following components were not installed:
- Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 - Visual Studio 2008 Tools The following components failed to install:
- Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2
By my distraction in "Add/Remove Programs" I deleted the entry "Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2" instead of
"Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 - Visual Studio 2008 Tools" (told me by error text) and then succesfully installed
AspNetMVC2_RC_VS2008.exe Now I see entries in "Add/Remove Programs":
- Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2
- Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 - Visual Studio 2008 Tools
- Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 2 - Visual Studio 2010 Tools
Well, it was the same before uninstall/install. I know that only MVC2 Preview can be used with VS 2010 and I gues that I uninstalled MVC2 Beta that was installed before for VS2008. Now I am in doubt: Had I installed MVC2 RC or what do I have with VS2008? How can I determine/check which release of MVC2 is installed with Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (or VS2010 Pro Beta 2)?

View 2 RepliesPretty much what the title says really, I followed the instructions on the orchard project website to install v0.9 with the web platform installer. No error whatsoever until I tried to access it with my browser, when I just got an error 500.19
I have issues finding what's wrong with my install as IIS/ASPX error messages are less than explicative (at least compared to apache/PHP), and enabling error logging leads to the creation of 200+ kb XML files where I can't seem to find anything that points me in the right direction for troubleshooting
where I might start looking for what's wrong? Even better, any known installer issues with orchard 0.9?
EDIT:
Error given is:
Compiler Error Message: CS0234: The type or namespace name 'WebData' does not
exist in the namespace 'WebMatrix' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
Line 25: using WebMatrix.WebData;
So it's missing an assembly - how can it be that it's missing Webmatrix.Webdata if the previous line is using WebMatrix.Data and it gives no error there?
Just trying to download it from [URL] for the first time. Web Platform Installer says regarding "Frameworks and Runtimes" (and also "Visual Studio Tools"), "All the recommended products from this group are already installed", even though they're not. Did have something called Visual Studio Runtime Redistributable installed which is just a handful of DLL's. I uninstalled it though - made no difference. Also removed entries from registry with "Visual Studio" in them, also made no difference.

I have an app that I've built with VS 2008 Pro, which I believe uses version 3.5 of the .Net Framework. I want to run this app on an older machine to test the layout with some older browsers. The site is simple static site. This older machine doesn't have version 3.5 of the framework installed.
If I install just the 3.5 Framework on this older machine, can I then run the site in the browser without having VS2008 or VWD 2008 installed? I want to tweak the css in for the older browsers.
I successfully installed VWD2010 but I get multiple errors when running projects (MVC) created under Asp.net 3.5.
How can I run projects (MVC) created in ASP.NET 3.5 under VWD2010 that installed 4.0?

After i Installed the VS 2010. I ran into problems running the asp.net 2.0 websites.
I visited the fixes page to read about the IIS metabase. the problem is - aspnet_regiis of framework .net 2.0 doen't work any more. Also all the websites / virtual directories configured in IIS 5.x on Windows XP to use the asp.net 2.0 framework don't work.
So i downloaded the Metaacl.vbs to check the settings of IIS metabase on my PC.
The permissions assigned to Admin user and the Service user account seems to be alright. No i am confused as to what is the exact cause of -
1) The websites targeting Framework 2.0 are not working any more
2) Why is the aspnet_regiis corrupt and gives the error - "The application failed to initialize properly" Is it a known compatibility issue for VS 2008 and VS 2010. Can we or Can we not have both of them installed parallely?
I would like to know whether there is a way to determine programatically if IIS is installed in 32bit or 64bit mode.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to open SQL 2008 Express .mdf file in VS 2008 but I got the "...A downgrade path is not supported...." error. I have SQL 2005 express with its management studio too.
