I was unable to upload files in a medium trust application and caught security exception.
If I change trust level to full it is working fine, but the hosting environment is set to run only medium trust application.
What are the settings to be done prior to upload files in a medium trust application.
I need large file upload support in my hosted (godaddy) medium trust asp.net app.It obviously needs to be responsive with indication of progress, so handling the stream myself is important.This all seems pretty simple and works well when in full trust:
1.Write an HttpModule that listens for file uploads.
2.Get the HttpWorkerRequest object from the Context using reflection.
3.Write out stream to a FileStream
All very well and good except that I keep getting permission exceptions when trying to get the HttpWorkerRequest object from the context in medium trust. Whether I use reflection or I use System.IServiceProvider.GetService() to get the object (which is clearly using reflection), I get the same error.
I have also tried using System.Web.HttpPostedFile. It has a property InputStream. But it seems this object is uploading the entire file on initialization, so no good.I have googled myself tired, and can't find another alternative.
Even if it is a security risk to let users have the HttpWorkerRequest object, surely the framework provides another way to handle the stream of files when Method="POST" and enctype="multipart/form-data"
I'm working on a project in ASP.Net, and it requires reading/writing to files on my server. I'm hosted at GoDaddy, and they swear they've got me at Medium Trust. When I try to read or write files that are in my own domain, I get Security Exceptions. I've tried multiple ways of opening/saving the files and they all return security errors. Here's the most recent error and offending line of code (I didn't save them all, they're all pretty much the same thing):
Exception Details: System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.MediaPermission, WindowsBase, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' failed.
PngBitmapEncoder pbe = new PngBitmapEncoder();
pbe.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(new Uri("ornament.png", UriKind.Relative))); <-- Error
I've also gotten the error when trying to read/write using FileStream, Bitmap.Save and new Bitmap("ornament.png"). Could there be a problem with my Web.config? Is read/write supposed to be blocked by medium trust? This is a time-sensitive project and this is a brick wall for me. The deadline is end of business day tomorrow and GoDaddy isn't responding.
I have an actionlessform class that is giving me issues in Medium Trust. I have narrowed down what the cause is.
Here is the class:

The bolded line is where the problem lies. Specifically if I remove "BindingFlags.NonPublic" it will work in medium trust.
When my web application is running under Medium trust, I get an error when executing the method:

I have a script that send a daily email to a list of recipients from a database. I am having a couple of emails failing to send and the try/catch/ex.message & ex.stacktrace doesn't give me enough information to show what the actual problem is. I have tried to do some smtp session logging but that seems to not be doable since I am running under Medium trust. Is their either another way to get this code to work on medium trust or another way to get detailed SMTP log info.
This is what I tried to use in my web.config

My web application is composed of several Visual Studio projects. It currently runs fine under high trust level (<trust level = "High" />). When I try to run it under medium trust level, I get this error:

Web hosting provider has set the .net trust level as Medium. so report viewer & crystal reports are not working. it required full trust.so is it possible to execute the reports in medium trust? and how?
ReportDoc.Load(Server.MapPath("~/Reports/Proposal.rpt"));
DataTable dt = cm.DisplayUserInfo("select * from tblProposal_Master where proposal_id='000006'").Tables[0];
ReportDoc.SetDataSource(dt);
CRV.ReportSource = ReportDoc;

I have to host a wcf service in a medium trust environment.I want to know which bindings are supported while hosting WCF services in medium trust. There is a MSDN article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb412171.aspx which talks about partial trust. I am not sure is it the same as medium trust.
i am having problem uploading files to the application. When i click on the upload button, it does not upload the already selected file.
View 4 RepliesI'm writing an ASP.NET MVC site where I need to have a "Tasks" application that runs alongside the website. Such a "Tasks" application would collect data at set intervals and insert it into the database.
Of course, I could write a simple Console Application and use the Windows Task Scheduler to run it, but my site is being hosted by GoDaddy and I only have medium trust permissions.
Are there any methods for implementing such functionality while not violating medium trust permissions?
One method that I'm considering is a method in the site itself that gathers data, waits for a long time, and then gathers data again. Would that interupt users' connection to the site?
Im running an ASP.NET MVC application hosted with Mosso, there are telling me that they cannot enable DTC because they run everything in medium trust.So when executing code that references: TransactionScope I get the following error. The transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8004D024)
Is there anyway to get around this?
what Medium Trust level is ?And what does it mean :
"More and more ASP.NET hosting providers are enforcing a Medium Trust Policy on their servers.Therefore it is important to make your website work (as much as possible) in environments where medium trust is enforced."
I am using GhostScript to generate some thumbnails of PDF pages in an ASP.NET application. I have it wrapped in this library called GhostScriptSharp that just uses DllImport to call methods in the GhostScript DLL.It looks like this wont work on a medium trust hosting environment, either because of the fact that it is calling unmanaged code, or that it looks like the library is creating files all over the place (outside my virtual directory). I ran Process Monitor and saw it trying to Read, QueryNameInformationFile, CreateFile and QueryStandardInformationFile in places like:
C:WINDOWSsystem32HalftoneDefault
or
C:gsgs8.63libHalftoneDefault
or
C:gsfontHalftoneDefault
Any ideas about whether this is "fixable" to run in medium trust? If I can't use GhostScript, is there another free/open source library that WILL work in Medium trust?
I am trying to get a simple prototype using ASP.NET S#arp-architecture (Sharp architecture) to run on a shared hosting site. This site runs in medium trust, which appears to give problems with this framework. At first I went off on a wild goose chase with the mySQL.data.dll, but the latest version already supports partially trusted callers. The only way I found up until now is this blogpost, which basically describes re-compiling everything from the ground up, starting with the various Castle components. Is this the only way to get this to work, and more importantly, does this actually work?
I have had some good experiences with S#arp-architecture, and since I only have a few days to build this prototype, I figured S#arp-architecture would be a good match. So, my options are to stick with SA, or on the other end of the spectrum to hand-roll an MVC/NH/mySQL application.
I'm following this document in order to run my website in a medium trust environment. My web app uses OleDb, so I need to give it permission in medium trust. I've done everything that is in that article and it's still not working In my web_mediumtrust.config I've added the following security class:

And the following permission set:

Together with Ben (@BuildStarted), we've been building the RazorEngine project, which is designed to allow you compile and parse arbitrary templates outside of ASP.NET MVC. The project has had a couple of releases for a while now, and the feedback has been greatBut, we have encountered an issue: Medium trust.
Because we are using the CSharpCodeProvider to compile the Razor-generated classes (to load into the current AppDomain for execution), we encounter a SecurityException when trying to invoke it, due to the LinkDemand enforced on it. When a normal ASP.NET page is compiled (regardless of trust level), it does so through a BuildProvider which is normally GAC'd, and thus is implicity granted the appropriate permissions to compile. Hence ASP.NET WebForms works as standard in Medium trust.
Our code does not, and we need to target scenarios where our built library won't be deployed to the GAC and is running in Medium trust. So we considered building a BuildProvider specifically for it and defer compilation to the ASP.NET build system, but this seems overly complex and disjointed, and the provider itself requires both a mapping through a file extension, and a virtual path (which may or may not resolve to a physical file - think VirtualPathProvider). It all seems overkill, just to get the project working in Medium trust; not just that, but purely for ASP.NET projects as our engine also works outside of ASP.NETSo my question is this, does anyone know of any techniques or technologies for compiling C# code in a Medium trust environment?
Is it possible to get session cookie name in medium trust level? The code below works in full trust, but throws a security exception in medium trust level.

I want to ask that which methods/classes are allowed in Medium Trust.For example, whether these methods are allowed?
GetProperties,

I'm trying to get the entity framework working in medium trust. I've tried splitting the files and using a separate assembly but I seem to have one problem after another.I moved the EDMX to a separate assembly, which causes a single .dll to be outpit to the sites /Bin directory. I'm referencing this as below from web.config.
<add name="ApplicationDB" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Application.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> [code]...
Whenever I try to access one of the entity classes, I get an ArgumentException: 'An item with the same key has already been added.' It's critical this works with medium trust, but I seem to be running out of options.
