Configuration :: Switching Between Development Server And Production Server?
Mar 22, 2010
I am wondering the best way to change my connection string based upon which server I am accessing.
Essentially, all of the development is done on our local machines - once we think it is working, we upload it to our development server. In these 2 instances, I want my application to go off of our "dev" connection string for the SQL database in the web.config.
However, once it is published to our production server (for an internal application), I would like the connection string to point to our live db.
I am using the N-Tier model by Imar Spaanjaars - and have it setup like he suggests - In my DAL I have a class called AppConfiguration -
In this class I have a public readonly property ConnectionString() which returns the connection string in the web.config.
This is in an individual class library. What I would like to do is something similar to:
If server is localhost OR devstring return devString else return productionstring

I created the simplest MVC project with Visual Studio 10, and it works fine on the VS Development Server, but won't run using IIS on the same computer under IIS (Windows Server 2008 R2 with ASP.NET 4.0.30319).
My steps were:
File / New / Project ...Visual C# / Web / ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application... and kept the default name: MvcApplication1
Clicked Debug to build and run ... the default page appears fine at http://localhost:49175 ...
Then I closed that browser and clicked on MvcApplication1 / Properties / Web and selected "Use Local IIS Web server"Clicked "Create" to create the virtual directory at http://localhost/MvcApplication1
Clicked Debug again... and got HTTP Error 403.14 (Web Server configured to not list directory)
It seems that IIS cannot find a Default document. If I add a document to the virtual directory (C:inetpubwwwrootMvcApplication1) with one of the default doc names, that document will display OK.
Why can ASP.NET find the default document (Views/Home/Index.aspx) when running from the VS Development Server, but not when running from IIS??
I have tried running "aspnet_regiis -i", but still find that C:inetpubwwwrootaspnet_clientsystem_web4_0_30319 is an empty folder. Should there be something here?I have tried giving all sorts of permissions to the virtual directory folder (C:inetpubwwwrootMvcApplication1) but without any success.

Problem: I need to move a local development database to the production server without any of the test data.
I am running SQL Server Express 2008 and SQL Server Management Studio 2008.
To create my ASP.NET Membership 2.0 system I created the DB initialy and ran aspnet_regsql.exe
I then added my own tables manually to store additional information.
I adjusted the web.config file with an application name.
When I ran a sript the application ID name was created and populated in the aspnet_Applications table. My script created a new member created and added to the admin role. Ok so everything go so far.
Now I want to move the local DB to the server. I know the connection string and can change this in the web.config.
My hosting company doesn't provide restore, so I don't think I can backup and restore
Q 1. What would be the best way to move the database across. Bearing in mind I need to clean the database out of test data.
Would it be just generate an SQL Script for the database and run it as a query on the server? And if this is the best way then do I need to set the permissions for the ASPNET user?
Q 2. What is the best way to clear out the data in the local database.?

I have created my site using ASP.NET Personal Starter Kits 3.5. I use Visual Studio 2008 only . .with its built-in SQL Server (2005 Express) ... my database in App_Data is ASPNETDB.MDF ...
I have created some of my tables also ....in ASPNETDB ..
In my local PC the site was running fine ...
But when I publish my site on production server it doesn't work and shows the following error
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
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 configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>

My hosting provider connection string ..
<add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=69.16.253.19;Initial Catalog=usa_data;Persist Security Info=True;User Id=user;Password=pass" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
My hosting provider gave me the connection string to connect to the SQL Server 2005 but it doesn't work...
I don't understand why my site was running fine using the production SQL Server 2005 in my local PC when I include ASPNETDB.MDF file in App_Data in my local pc only ..if I remove file ASPNETDB.MDF from App_Data of my local pc ... the site stops working ...
Can anybody tell em how to fix this ... !! I am very tensed since last 3-4 days

I am using this code to pass variables from ASP.NET application to HTML Application:
[Code]....
The above code is run from page_laod event, and I am making some development changes on the Development Machine (say
http://eutdev02/ehrmd).
After the ASPX page is loaded, and I debug the javascript in the HTML (F12 under IE8), and can see the Cookie is found in the browser.
But, when I open the target HTML/Javascript web page (which will read the cookie prmStaffID), but the HTML Page is on the production machine (separate server say
http://prod01/Attendance.html), the Cookie is not found !!!
It seems to me that Cookies will persist only on one IIS Server, and will not be global.
Question:How I can persist the Cookie on the Client Machine regardless of the the Server Machine ?
For testing purposes, I want to send the cookie to the client from teh Development Server, but the target application is under HTML/Javascript, and I want to be able to read the same Cookie using Javascript.

I am rather new to asp.net but I have built a couple of apps that do not require users to login. am having some problems moving my secure .net application from my laptop to a production server, however, and I am hoping someone can help me. On my laptop my application's user authentication functions as it should, but when I move my application to a webserver I get an assortment of errors. Forgive me if these questions are a little basic. My first question is this. In a production environment do I move the ASPNETDB.MDF file in the App_Data folder to my SQL server? Is it OK to rename it to something more descriptive?

I have used a dll named MARCEngine, which is used to read Marc data. I use a method named MARC2MARC21XML which converts a normal marc file to an XML file.
The problem is it works great on my local IIS, but when I upload it to the production server, it only generates the root node and not the child nodes.
Here is a snippet of my sample page :
[Code]....
Asp.net has the permissions to access the files geneated.

Sometimes I would like to be able to update during day time my ASP .Net application. I noticed that quite often updating DAL's (.xsd files) that are in used will block my application (and users). The only way, I found to recover, is to restart IIS but my users do not like it.
Is there some more clean way to update an online server without disrupting the users ?
Could I identified the DAL which are in used and the users using them, so that I could somehow disconnect only these users (My application uses Windows authentication).

We have had some problems with using a unmanaged DLL file written in Delphi. (Unable to load dll - not found...)The following code solved the problem on my local machine:
[Code]....
1) The elusive DLL is copied to the ASP.NET temporary files folder2) To check this we get a list of files from that folder.3) The needed function is called with DLL-import.1 & 2 works perfectly - both run directly from Visual Studio 2010 and when uploaded to a webhotel3 works perfectly local, but causes the remote host to think a little and then return a HTTP 503 Service Unaviable error for the next few minutes...

I want to import a DLL (built on VC) in asp.net, and I have a major problem in PRODUCTION Box (IIS 7 and Windows 2008 server). First: I want to say that this DLL works fine in my DEV Box with web application written in C#, and my development server (Win XP SP 3, .NET Framework 3.5 and IIS6). But when I upload my code (web application code + DLL) in PRODUCTION Box (IIS 7 and Windows 2008 server). Web application doesn't work with DLL any more. I am sure that Asp.net knows this DLL well, and if it did'nt recognize it would give me an error, but my problem is that my DLL does'nt works proprely when I run it in IIS 7 under Windows 2008 server. Do you know any solution ? Can it be something with the IIS 7 permissions?

I am a problem in my one of my web applications. I run this application under ASP.NET Development Server. Normally, in all of my other projects, when I made a change, I recompiled the project, and then press CTRL+F5 in the browser, then the new changes will be displayed in the browser. However, this specific project, when I made a change, recompiled, and then press CTRL+F5 in the browser, the page stayed the same as it was, withouth displaying the changes. I have to restart the ASP.NET Development Server to see the new changes.
This problem is not only happending in my PC, but also in others who doesn't have Visual Studio installed. So I guess there is nothing to do with my PC's environment. Are there anything wrong with my web.config?

I wrote a web service to send emails and some win apps supossed to call the service for sending emails. When I test the service via Visual studio development server everything is ok and it sends emails. But with IIS the smtpclient.send throw an exception whit this message : No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it [mailserver ip:port] The endpoint for VS development server is [URL] and for iis [URL] The smtp server is remote (gmail) and iis version is 6. I set the current local user as iis anonymous user. I am in LAN and my client firewall is off. There is an ISA server for the internet but I'm using a dialup connection for the internet. So why visual studio can send emails but iis can't?

I have an ASP.NET site running on the Visual Studio Development Server. I also have a silverlight project in my solution. I get the error:
Error: Unhandled Error in Silverlight Application
Code: 2104
Category: InitializeError
Message: Could not download the Silverlight application. Check web server settings
After some research, it seems I need to do the equivalent of setting the MIME type in HTTP Headers in IIS for VSDS. Is this right?
If so, how do I do this? If not how do I get my silverlight to run in my ASP.NET solution using Visual Studio Development Server?

Using VisualWebDeveloper 2010 on the development machine. All nice and fast.Using VisualWebDeveloper 2008 on the server. Server runs on Windows Server 2008 and has IIS 7.
It looks like that when 'table', a datatabe filled up in C# code behind, is getting longer, then the server (whether running the website on IIS or on the local host of VIsualWebDeveloper2008) is really slowing down. Checked it in debug mode and traced it down to
Adapter.Update(table);
Are there any know issues? Could it be that there is incompatibility between different version of SQL server or something like that? The update works, it is just awefully slow, but only on the server.

How can I test an application that I am publishing to a remote provider's IIS7 hosted site, with the VS2008 development server that is built in with VS2008 on an XP Machine?
My membership/roles work perfectly up on the remote host. On ths hosted IIS7 site when I try to access a secure directory it redirects to login, and I am able to login, however when I launch (debug - F5) from VS2008, it will provide that folder/resource, no questions asked. Same build, config, etc... nothing has changed.
I am running XP, and local IIS version installed is 5.1.
My guess is what is happening is that the new format required in the web.config is configured properly for IIS7 deployment, which is why it works remotely, but when running locally through VS2008/XP it is running with an older version on IIS and does not recoginize the new tags.
