Configuration :: Difference Between Iis/win2003 And Iis/win2008?
Jul 30, 2010
I have a serious problem with my asp.net application. Since yesterday i got a timemout error when i request a web page. The web page sends a request to a sal server 2008 and fail with timeout error.
This application is running under /win2008 standard edition.
I tried to use the same application on iis/win2003 with the same sql server database, it runs with no problem.
Is there any difference between IIS/win2003 and IIS/win2008 settings?
Tried to test .net4rc1 site on test host with win2003. As expected by default server returned error about " targetFramework="4.0" in web.config. But since I switched ASP.NET version to 4.0 and reboot that site just returning 404.
I know how to send email from asp.net using my pc and my provider smtp server. But doing the same thing from a Win2008 dedicated server is confusing for me. I have installed the smtp server and configure for my virtual web as explained here :
[URL]
But I'm confused by these two lines
serv.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.PickupDirectoryFromIis; serv.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SmtpServerUserName"], ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SmtpServerPassword"]);
1°) Why PickupDirectoryFromIis since in configuration localhost smtp server has been chosen and not pickup directory ?
2°) When setting up the smtp server no login / password has been asked so is the same as the computer login / password ?
We have been using AzMan in development and all was going well until we tried using it our QA website (Windows 2008 Enterprise SP2) and I get: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.RuntimeType.InvokeDispMethod(String name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Object target, Object[] args, Boolean[] byrefModifiers, Int32 culture, String[] namedParameters) at System.RuntimeType.InvokeMember(String name, BindingFlags bindingFlags, Binder binder, Object target, Object[] providedArgs, ParameterModifier[] modifiers, CultureInfo culture, String[] namedParams) at System.Web.Security.AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider.CallMethod(Object objectToCallOn, String methodName, Object[] args) at System.Web.Security.AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider.GetClientContext(String userName) at System.Web.Security.AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider.GetRolesForUserCore(String username) at System.Web.Security.AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider.GetRolesForUser(String username) at OurApp.login.ValidateAgainstSpecificADProvider(ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider provider) at OurApp.login.AutoValidateForAllADProviders() at OurApp.login.Btn_Login_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(IPostBackEventHandler sourceControl, String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
This is when the call to GetRolesForUser(username) is made to the AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider. The website is running under it's own machine service account and when I look at the Security tab in AzMan.msc I can see the service account has Administrator access to the store. I've tried adding to the Reader rights but this doesn't do anything.
This error has not shown up in development on Windows 7 Workstation and interestingly the local store was created in the same way from the website code, so the website service account has full access. I've checked file permissions and played around with the security settings in AzMan.msc and I cannot get it going. At one stage the error changed to "Invalid Handle". There is nothing in the event log so it's very tough to troubleshoot an obscure COM error like this. I guess it could be anything! :)
I also tried impersonating a domain account for the call based on some other posts I read on the net but this didn't work for me. The other interesting thing to note is that the website creates the store (first time) and it actually mnages to create the store without any problems at all. It's just this call to GetRolesForUser that blows out.
In my ASP.net application i used AJAX Collapsible Panel, its working fine on my local system but after publishing and deploying on win2003 server, panel is in expand mode and dont show animation on click and also on that web form asp menu is not showing submenus. It all happens on clients machines. On server it still somehow showing some animation.
Is there a difference between the Web Setup Project in VS2008 and the Web Deployment Project that I keep reading about on this site? More importantly, how much of a help is the deployment project over just using the setup project?

I thought that <%: had replaced <%=, since mentions on [URL]Prior to ASP.NET 4, the <%= %> syntax was used to execute code and write it out to the page. Starting with ASP.NET 4, you should always use the <%: %> syntax instead..."
I hope this isn't too much of a newbie question. I seem to always use the correct syntax, but I don't really understand why I'm using the <%: and <%= in ASP.NET, and I was hoping someone could clarify for me. I found this article which explains <%= and <%#, but wasn't able to find anything in Google on <%:.
What is the difference between c#.net and vb.net ?
I faced this question in an interview. Any technical difference is there ? I heard that there are two methods additional in vb.net which are not there in vb.net.
I am in the process of learning MVC, and thought I would parallel the work in both C# and VB.NET. I ran into a snag when right-clicking in an action method inside of a controller to add a view - in C# if I choose to strongly type the view it includes all the objects in the models folder in the drop-down list for selection; however, in VB.NET none of the models are available in the list. Is there some step I need to take in order to make the models objects available in the drop down for selection?
