By defauly in my web.config I have set the , in runtime I just want to change the Mode = "Off" in memory. I do not want to save the changes to web.config.
Basically we need to see the description of the runtime error, when required.
I am having an issue where if I change my url to .asp from .aspx i get a 404 error but it is not handled by my custom errors. If I change the url to def23947823h.aspx it is caught and redirects to correct page.

Right now, when I am copying the website to host server, I am changing the connection string in webconfig file and at each location of a sqldatasource or a query .. thats like more than 30 places where I am doing this.
When I am done copying the website, I have to change all the connection strings back to dev server for me to keep working on the dev copy....
I wish to keep the site settings like ProductsPerpage, SiteName, MaximumFileUploads etc in web.config file I wish to add a "Change Settings" form in the web site in order to change settings. Is it a standard method to access and edit the system.config file programmatically for changing site settings? Else what should be the good approach I should follow?
View 3 RepliesTo enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".i got this error during login time on the server how it can be solved
View 1 RepliesI have the following settings. Asp.net 2.0 / Vs.net 2005 / Web.config -> customErrors mode="on"
<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="~/ErrorPages/Default.aspx">
Here is my customErrors section:

When an error occurs (I type in a non-existing page in address), I get the default IE "page not found" page.This happens both on localhost in development, and of course in live environment.I think this started happening since a recent Microsoft Update, which included most recent updates to .net.
We developed an application in ASP.NET 3.5 on Windows Server 2003. (IIS 6.0)They are trying to deploy it on Windows Server 2008 IIS 7.5.But we are getting the old yellow screen message: Runtime ErrorDescription:
[Code]....
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed.Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on the local server machine, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "RemoteOnly". To enable the details to be viewable on remote machines, please set "mode" to "Off".We have turned off custom errors everywhere we can find in ASP.Net Error Pages and set it to Detailed Errors at all folder levels for IIS Error Pages.Still the yellow screen with custom errors and no detailed errors.If we switch the application pool to run in 32 bit = true, we get a detailed error. But we don't get very far with that because of Oracle issues and wouldn't really want to force it to run in 32 bit when it should really run in 64 bit anyway.So how do we get detailed messages from IIS while running in 64 bit?

I 'm using visual studio 2007 and I have come up with an error in my web config that I have never come up with before. I have set customError mode "off" in my web config and I'm getting an error code of The 'mode' attribute is invalid ' The value 'off' is invalid according to it's data type 'NM Token' - the enumeration constraint failed what an 'NM token' is and what I can do to fix this problem? My page works perfectly when I'm working on it locally, but when I move it to the web server I get an error and it tells me to set the custom mode errors in the web config to 'off' This is the error I'm getting:
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application.

Web.config is the main settings and configuration file for an ASP.NET web application. The file is an XML document that defines configuration information regarding the web application. The web.config file contains information that control module loading, security configuration, session state configuration, and application language and compilation settings. Web.config files can also contain application specific items such as database connection strings
Example 1:
<!-- This is an example Web.config file -->
[Code]....
In this article, we will see how to read the configuration settings in the web.config using 'JavaScript'.
Step 1: Create a new ASP.NET website. Add a button control to the Default.aspx.
Step 2: Right click the project > Add New Item > Web Configuration File
Add the following sample entry to the appSettings section in the web.config between the <configuration> tag as shown in the example 1:
<add key="var1" value="SomeValue"/>
Step 3: To read these entries using JavaScript, add the following script in the <head> tag of your Default.aspx page as shown below:
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ReadConfigSettings()
{
var v1 = '<%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["var1"].ToString() %>'
alert(v1);
}
</script>
</head>
Step 4: Call this function on a button click and display the values of the configuration settings
<input type="button" value="Get" onclick="ReadConfigSettings();" />
That's it. Run the application and click the button. The value of the key in the appSettings will be displayed in the alert window. I hope you liked this short article.

Is there a way to change the browser settings for IE8, directly using the .net code.
I had developed an application, which has a functionality to upload a file from My Networks. I browse the file and try to upload it. It works fine in IE6. But in IE8, instead of displaying me the path of the file, it gives C:/Fakepath. When I enable the security setting of browser "include full path while uploading the file from the server", it works fine and gives me the whole path.
I have a problem with IIS and report server where after idling for some time the report server takes a really long time to start. I read that the problem is that "the application domain is flushed from IIS and the application needs to be recompiled" and the solution would be to ping the site with a script or change the processModel settings in the machine.config. I have the opportunity to change the processModel settings in the machine.config but I don't know what do I have to change there.
Are the settings I need to change the pingFrequency and pingTimeout settings? What should I set them to?
I have application that fetches email configuration settings such as host (SMTP Server name), username (SMTP Username) and Password from App.Config File as shown below
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="name@example.com"><network host="smtp.gmail.com" userName="test123@gmail.com" port="25" password="PassworD"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
Now i wish to configure the settings that i have set in database and NOT from App.Config File. From database the credentials are not available in SMTPClient's properties .FYI, they are saved in database as well as the values are also correct.
My question relates to the performance implications of reading application configuration data from an XML file.I am building an application that lists information from a database and needs to know how to display the lists, depending on the types of data returned.This is difficult to explain, but basically I would like to have an XML config file that lists the types and describes how to display them. This will allow me to change the display methods without re-compiling the application.
My question is really around performance. Given that my application will need to use this data many times during each page load...Should I be reading directly from the XML file and parse it each time I need it?
Or should I cache the XML object and parse it each time I need it?Or should I parse the XML once, generate some sort of object and cache that object?My guess is option 3, but I'm basically fishing for best practice around this.
I've written an NUnit test project against an ASP.Net project. The code being tested cannot find the configuration values (in Web.config) when invoked from my test project. What is the right way to provide these configuration settings so my tests will run?
View 2 RepliesI'm starting to consider creating a class library that I want to make generic so others can use it. While planning it out, I came to thinking about the various configuration settings that I would need. Since the idea is to make it open/shared, I wanted to make things as easy on the end user as possible. What's the best way to setup configuration settings without making use of web.config/app.config?
View 3 RepliesI 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.

View 5 RepliesI have several settings in my project area (stored in web.config). However, the scope is not editable and is permanently set to "Application", which means I can't edit them at run time. I would really like to be able to edit these from the web interface. I know that doing so would restart the application (since the web.config was modified), but I'm okay with that, once the settings are written.
Is there any way to programmatically modify the settings in the <applicationSettings><PROJECT.Properties.Settings> area of the web.config?
I've been thinking about this for a couple days but still would like some feedback on the best way to go about this:
I have multiple sites (domains) that will be running the same code. However, there are a couple settings I have in the appsettings web.config file which are relative to each site. (ie: defaultSiteTitle, emailFromAddress, etc).
I would like to deploy this application in only one location (folder) and point the domains in IIS to that one directory.
To do this, I believe I cannot use the web.config file to hold these settings...
So, I decided to make a SiteSettings.xml file and load the site settings in there:
<sites>
<oSite domain="abc.com" defaultSiteTitle="This is Site ABC" emailFromAddress="info@abc.com" />
<oSite domain="xyz.com" defaultSiteTitle="This is Site XYZ" emailFromAddress="info@xyz.com" />
</sites>
So when I need to access the site settings I just call a function in my datalayer that reads this xml file and via the httpRequest I pass it it determines which site settings to use.
Okay, that works when I call it from a page where I have the httpRequest...
Howver, now when I'm into some business layer functions say sendEmail and I need to find the emailFromAddress from the SiteSettings.xml file, I don't have the httpRequest. I know I could probably hack something together and pass it someway...
But I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this...
I don't really want to store it into session.
Is it possible to tell IIS what web.config file to look at, if I had multiple web.config files? (I don't think this is possible).
