Configuration :: Modify Application Url At Web.config Level?
Apr 11, 2010
My ISP recently has migrated my app to a new platform. The app has now to be parked in a root subfolder, say site1, rather than at the root.
The main page can still be accessed via [URL] is now located at /site1/default.aspx. Subfolder pages however cannot be accessed correctly anymore since the url includes now subfolder name "site1" ie
[URL]
instead of
[URL]
This of course breaks page referencing.
Despite multiple requests, I have not yet obtained an answer so far. Question: Is there a simple way to strip away string "site1" from the url, preferably at the web.config level? I know this can be done programmatically at the page level, to clean up page references (>30 pages). In addition, this could entail further compatibilty problems between the deployment version and the local development site.
i am using CruiseControl.Net for my continous integration process. using ccnet i build and publish my asp.net application into a server in Release mode. but i am not able to change debug="true" to debug="false" in my Web.Config during publishing. what can i do?
My hosting provider just changed the trust level to medium but I cant figureout where to place the configuration on the web.config file! I have spent hours trying to figureout with no luck. here my web.config file
This is a general question and is not about any particular issue that I am facing right now.As configuration settings in the child level can override the ones in parent level,errors can occur when you have 2 web.config files one redefining configuration settings that you cannot override such as authentication or session state.Issue happens when you have authentication / session state set on the lower level web.config and also in higher level web.config. Is there any other configuration settings like these ?
We had a UAT and Production version of a .NET web application. UAT was taking around 5 seconds to run a particular operation while Prod was taking 35+ seconds.
This even happened when pointing both web applications at the same database and putting them both on the same machine.
The culprit was finally found to be the following entry, which was in the Prod but not UAT web.config
<trust level="High" originUrl="" />
why this would cause such a significant performance degradation??
I am getting following error message while running ASP.net 2003 application. In login page after providing username and pwd i am getting this error. Error: Server Error " " in Application Description: The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the required permission please contact your system administrator or change the application's trust level in configuraion file. Exception Details:System.Security.SecurityException: Required registry access is not allowed.
I have done project in .NET 1.1. when i am opening that project in vs2005 that through solution explorer and build i am getting error like below.
It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
i am configured my local with virtual directory also. i open through local iis it is working fine .but if i run the application then i am getting error above.common thing s i have done are my application has 3 weconfigs in 3 folders and one main config. and i have taken individual authentications and authorisations in main config only. this is not a priblem .actually this problem will occur if we have webconfigs and each have permissions then we will get this right, no problem i seperated.
but why i am getting this error. if i open in vs2008 also i am getting this error,
I am developing web applicaiton. I want to read web.config in App.config file. I have appSettings and connectionStrings in web.config. How to read that?
My hoting provider has provided me dsn connection to database through dotnetpanel for my asp.net mvc site. In my dev i was using sqlconnection. Now I am trying to modify my web.config file. In my web.config file i am getting the error
Error Description while browsing the website under IIS "The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the required permission please contact your system administrator or change the application's trust level in the configuration file." Initially I deleted the virtual directory, created again, set the permission to anonymous, set the browse and execute permissions, no solution. Then after doing many trials, I found out the basic problem reading the error "not allowed by the security policy". In web configuration file if we set the security policy to Fully Trusted, then problem solved and application working fine. or Set the trust level to the main configuration file in he "C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727CONFIGweb.config"
I am using VS 2008, IIS 7, .NET 3.5 on a vista machine. I created a new web-site using "HTTP", thus to use IIS. The application being created by VS 2008 created the virtual directory.
There are only two objects created initially with a new website "Default.aspx" and "web.config" file. I've made no changes and choose to view in browser and receive the following error:
It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
I've removed and reinstalled IIS 7. None of the sites previously created work. I've validated that a duplicate webconfig doesn't exist.
I want to be able specify to do the following: Specify configuration settings such as appSettings and connectionStrings for multiple web apps in IIS7 No editing Machine.config or the machine-level web.config Web apps are distinct web sites in IIS (not subfolder apps) Is this possible without just duplicating the configs for each app?
I have a table in my database which keeps track of a 3 level hierarchy. What is the best way to display and change/modify this hierarchy? Which asp.net control to use and how?
I have a web.config file defined in my asp.net web application. I have many different settings configured there. I have another project, this time a console application. I'd like to read several configurations from my web.config file. How can this be done?
I have to handle error related to web application. I am not sure how its works. I am thinking that I will add an error page (error.aspx) and in global.asax ,application_onError, I will redirecting the user to error page and that should be enough ! i mean it will handle error automatically.
I am trying to config my application to use out-of-process sessionState.
<sessionstate mode="stateserver" cookieless="false" timeout="20" sqlconnectionstring="data source=127.0.0.1;user id=<user id>;password=<password>" server="127.0.0.1" port="42424" />In my web.config I get errors for the server and port attributes, telling me that server attribute is not allowed and port attribute is not allowed.
There seems to be an issue with the "Trust" level when executing within a "Cloud" environment. In order for the following app to work it needs a trust level of at least "Medium." This web app is developed using VB.NET 3.5, and Visual Studio 2008. The app works perfectly on my local sever but when deployed/published to the "Cloud" it returns the error: System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. I have added all 4 required values, ConsumerKey, ConsumerSecret, OAuthToken, and OAuthTokenSecret to the web.config file in the "appSettings" section of the "configuration"
[Code]....
If found that by going to [URL] and signing into the account that is using the application, then go to the "Settings" page, go to the bottom of the page and click on the "API" menu option. Once the API page appears you will clik on the button "2", Register An App. On the right side on the new page, you will see a button "View Your Applications." If you have previously registered your app, click this button, If not fill out the appliction for a new app. Now at the View your Applications page, select the app you want to get the authorization keys for where is says "Edit Details". Now click on the button to the right that says, "Application Detail." Here you will find your Consumer Key and your Consumer Secret Key. On the right side of this page you will see the menu option "My Access Token", click it and you will find your oauth_token and your oauth_token_secret keys! Not that you have all the keys, put them in the "appSettings" section of the web.config file. Add "Dim twConn As New TwitterVB2.TwitterAPI" at the top of the page.
I then created a subroutine where I pass in the Tweet:

This code works great in an enviornment that allows at least a "Medium" trust level. However it appears that many of the "new" hosting envrionments such as "Cloud Hosting" and others do not allow this trust level automatically!However if the trust level is less than "Medium" on your host you will likely receive the error message: "Twitter Returned: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed." If anyone has found a fix for this "Trust Level"
I am trying to read a normal string from the web.config file. When I try to read a string from the web.config file the application doesnt seem to read it. I set my sqlconnection string in the web.config file. It reads a sqlconnection string but not a normal string.Here is my code:
I am having an issue with caching of a web application while deployment to a webserver. the application require full trust level to be assigned but i am having partial trust level. How can i handle it. I am using Microsoft enterprise lib caching. site is displaying an error if FullTrust used nad for medium code doesn't work.
this is the error message on my website
"The current build operation (build key Build Key[Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.LogWriter, null]) failed:

I am working on a web app that will heavily rely on configuration. The configuration is also will be written by another process or human. I am looking to get response on best practices in .net 3.5 on how to implement this case. I had used the configuration section of an early version of the Enterprise Library Applications Block. I really liked working with it but from what I hear it is discontinued in current versions. Hence the question... Need to be able to serialize collections, pick up file write event to reload new instance of config into memory.
