I encrypted my web.config file and I copied this file to the production server. But I get an error. But without encrypting - it's ok. I used:
C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFramework64v4.0.30319aspnet_regiis -pef "appSettings" "C:inetpubwwwrootSite1" -prov RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider
I don't have access to IIS. Is it possible to encrypt config file and everything works?

My aim is to make the web.config not readable by external users, but my application should be able to access it. Is there any way to do this?
I have tried the following way, but how to set the application to use string instead of web.config?
I want to encrypt my web.config file so that others do not open the file using any editor like notepad. But my application should be able to use the same web.config file. I could encrypt the web.config file and decrypt it inside the application and I saved the entire web.config to a string file. Now I want to use this string variable instead of web.config(now in encrypted form, which cannot be accessed by the application).

For our website, we have decided we would like to maintain our user passwords as encrypted binary data in our database. We are using ASP.NET 3.5 to host our site and SQL Server Express 2008 for the database, both running on the same server. When a user logs in and submits a username and password, there will need to be some sort of encryption or decryption in order to verify the credentials. To me, it would appear that there are 3 ways to do this:
1)[C# Encyrption] On User creation, perform encryption in the Web App and submit the encrypted password to the database. To verify credentials at Login, perform the same encryption on the submitted password and ensure that it matches the value stored in the database.
2)[SQL Encryption] On User creation, submit the plain-text password to the database and have it perform one of the SQL encryption variants during INSERT. To verify credentials at Login, have the database perform decryption on the password during the SELECT statement, and compare the plain-text submitted password to the one in the database.
3)[Mix] On User creation, submit the plain-text password to the database, and have it perform one of the SQL encryption variants during INSERT. To verify credentials at Login, perform the same encryption algorithm used by SQL on the submitted password ( is this possible? ), and ensure that it matches the value stored in the database.
Does anybody have an opinion as to which of these options is best? Number 1) is the most familiar to me, and would be the easiest to use with LINQ to SQL ( which is our current data model ), so I am leaning towards that. But if there are better options I would love to know about them.

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).

This is meant to be easy ...so ive been told, but still cant get it to work!I have a sql database hosted on a shared server which requires the use of sql authentication.As a result I require to encrypt my sensitive data in the config (connection strings etc).I understand that you can do this using aspnet_regiis etc, but ive been told that as I have no direct acccess to the server, I may need to program the encryption.
I have seen a few examples, but as a novice I have been banging away at this, looking at an errors screen most of the time!

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.

I want to publish my website from the development machine to QA server. Do I need to create a new web.config file which has the new data connection strings and copy it on the QA server or is there a better way of doing this, so that every time I publish modified files, the web.config does not get overwritten.

I am designing a web application for Leave Application of our faculties. There is a form in my website which represent the existing paper-back leave application form. Users(faculties) have to fill-up this web form and after validation an email will be send to the email address of our principal/hod. I hope that email address(s) will be provided to our group members. Now I want to know that what will be the required configuration of the web.config file? I found this blog ScottGu's Blog. Here the given configuration is:
[Code]....
But I think this is not acceptable for my project as the smtp from="test@foo.com", userName, password are unknown to me. So what should I do. Am I able to understand my requirement to you?

retrieve appsettings from the app.config file stored in a DLL directory?
I have read many posts on this and it appears as though it's not possible. I've tried all configurationmanager options without success.
Of course, when my .net web app runs, it configurationmanager pulls the settings from the web.config which I understand. I would just like to have a configuration file dedicated to the dll. (like app.config).

I have two test machines that both have the same issue. I have one running IIS7.5 with Windows 2008 R2 and another server running IIS7 on WIndows 2008. I am having a problem with my Web.config files not being published to the server using WebDAV. The file seems to be replaced with a blank Web.config file. Since the Web.config file is blank non of my AJAX web pages are working. I have AJAX web pages that use Microsoft's AJAX 2.0 or 3.5 (they were created in Visual Studio 2008) and I have AJAX web pages that use pure javascript accessing Codebehind classes by AjaxPro2.dll I found on the Web. All these projects worked on Windows Server 2003 with ASP.NET v3.5 because it published the Web.config file.I believe the issue has something to do with the validation process Windows 2008 uses to make sure the Web.config file is not corrupt. I tried many Web.configs and nothing works. All my applications are running from a single root folder located in inetpubwwwroot
and that single folder is "converted to application" using the DefaultAppPool (ASP.NET v2.0 Integrated Mode).
I found a workaround which is to publish my normal Web.config and a copy of it name something else like Web2.config. The Web.config is replaced on the server with a blank one, which I delete directly from the server (via Remote Desktop) and I rename the other Web2.config. This works for all my AJAX webpages both the MS AJAX and the "native" ones using pure javascript and the AJAXPro2.dll.
I tried setting the application on IIS to another Application Pool "ASP.NET v4.0 Integrated" and my MS AJAX web pages work perfectly with the blank Web.config file and not using the workaround at all. However, the "native" AJAX using purjavascript and the AJAXPro2.dll do not work because they require settings in the Web.config. This means there is something that ASP.NET 4.0 has that allows it to run the MS AJAX without a proper Web.config. I thought this might help you figure out my problem.
I have been racking my brain over this for a few weeks now and I am stuck. I really need help with getting my Web.config file from my VS2008 applications to publish (via WebDAV) to my IIS server. I can do this in either setup IIS7.5 Windows Server 2008 R2 or IIS7 Windows Server 2008. I am a programmer not system administrator. I have admin access of these servers and the system adminstrator is also stumped.Let me know if you need any additional information like my Web.config file or log files from the server.
