Configuration :: Using Proxy Through Code Instead Of Modifying The Hostfile Of The System?
Feb 7, 2011
We have 7 different development environments and only 1 domain name. Whenever we want to hit the particular environment we change the host file entry and modify the IP address to that domain name.
We are creating a web application which checks the health of all these servers. But the problem is we have to modify the hostfile of the system from the code to point to different environment this requires administrative previlages and so this is not best approach. Is there any way to hit the particular environment without touching the host file by using some kind of proxy?
In an article I have read "A web browser can be named as proxy server. As safari, chrome, mozilla".But proxy server is like a an intermediatary btween the clent and server know?
When we use IIS for our aspnet 3.5 web application, it seems like each computer that wants access to this file needs to add the IP Address to the host file before we can navigate to the site. Is there a way to avoid using the host file. When this application goes to production, it should be able to be acesses by hundreds of computers and I really don't think forcing each computer to modify the host file is a good solution at all.
am just figuring out best practice with MVC now I have a project where we have chosen to use it in anger.My question is.If creating a list view which is bound to an IEnumerable is this bad practise?Would it be better to seperate the code generated by the WCF Service reference into a datastructure which essentially holds the same data but abstracts further from the service, meaning that the UI is totally unaware of the service implementation beneath.or do people just bind to the proxy object types and have done with it ?My personal feeling is to create an abstraction by creating a model and placing the Collection in that and referring to the collection in the UI code from the model.
I would like to store some meta-information about a given site instance that can (a) be managed by that site instance and (b) persist clobbering of Web.config file.The site will run in multiple environments (dev,testing,staging and production) and each environment can have different values for this metadata. Note: All environments are running IIS 7.0+
The Root Web.config seems very appealing, as it is certainly outside of the website. Therefore, both files and databases can be changed while maintaining the metadata. I have seen how to modify the appSettings of the Web.config stored in the website, but is it possible to similarly modify the appSettings in the Root Web.config (Specifically within the proper directive)?
our web application should be hosted under proxy server, for that we had to change our URL to be relative.
we changed all the url's but then we saw that web resources that are embeded in the .net dll's are being written to the page with absolute path, start with "/" for example:
[Code]....
how can we change it? how can we set the web resource to be relative like this "../webresource.axd"
I am trying to add a web reference to an ASP.NET 2.0 application in Visual Studio 2008.However, the generated proxy classes do not include BeginXXXX and EndXXXX methods.Hcan I get these to be generated? Do I need to manually use wsdl.exe?(Incidentally in ASP.NET 3.5 apps, there is an option in the Add Service Reference box which lets me specify that Async methods should be generated. However, I am limited to ASP.NET 2.0 implementation).
I have a drop down box that is in the edit template of a formview. I want to be able to add a parrameter to the querystring when the drop down selected index is changed.
I tried
Request.QueryString.Add("tabindex", (sender as WebControl).TabIndex.ToString());
But I got an exception saying the collection is readonly.
I am getting this error on a website. does that mean the server is not competible with asp.net 3.5

currently, I am working on the project where I have to configure Application on IIS7 with network drive and doing this I am getting the error regarding security. Let me explain in detail. We have two production server, both having Windows 2008. now one server acting as the storage server and other server will work as web server which having the IIS (here IIS7). Now, I have to deploy the application on the storage server and in web server I have to configure the application in IIS with the path of network drive (here network drive means path of the folder at storage server). At here I had provide the full path like \ servernamedrivename$foldername, and also provide the credential at "connect at" button.Now when I open the page it will display the page but with the following error.
Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. Now new question that Credential is proper or not? Here my both production server having the user : username1 and password: Password1 but the domain is different. So, what I do that enter only the username1 in user name and password1 in password box.

I am getting the error Configuration System Failed to Initialize , i have two projects inside my solution and Listed belwo is the app.config for each of them
When I am running the web application in Visual studio 2010, i am getting the following error for the dll, Interop.Encryption.dll. I am not getting any compilation errors. Given reference to the dll Inerop.Encryption.dll in the web project.

Is it possible to replace the sitemap section of web.config using the replacement functionality of Web Deployment Projects? I have tried doing this in every configuration I can think of and I get a WDP00002 missing section error every time.Web.config file section replacement command: system.web/sitemap=sitemap.configBoth .config files are in the root of the project and no matter how I set up the sitemap.config file I still get this error.
I built a cms system which use the aspnetdb and I made few changes on that database.I use it for login and registeration only , but today when I uploaded all the files , I realize that my hosting company use a prefix for the database name for example db1010101_*** so , is it ok to rename the database or I should create my own ?
btw I build my database on mssql 2005 and the hosting is 2000 so I will have some troubles :
In our web site project we need to reference the assembly System.Data.DataSetExtensions, 4.0.0.0. So we added a reference to it in the webconfig, but we are getting the following error on build:
error CS0012: The type 'System.Data.TypedTableBase`1<T0>' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.Data.DataSetExtensions, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'. We added the dll version 4.0.0.0 in the bin folder of the site just in case. At first in gac there was only version 3.5.0.0 of this dll, but we installed the 4.0.0.0 version via gacutil.exe. Now when we check with "gacutil.exe /l" the correct assembly version (4.0.0.0) appears to be loaded in gac, but we can not see it in the windows explorer in windows/assembly folder (there is only version 3.5.0.0). And we are still getting the same error. Obviously we missed something, but the question is what ?
I have a website that I have run for years running a custom built CMS. It has had no problems ever. I decided to create a demo (temporary url) of the CMS using the exact same website. Only people I give access to would be able to login and change it, so it basically is not in use for the most part.
I tried this demo site the past few days, and I noticed that I kept getting System.OutOfMemoryException errors. I would wait for an hour or so, then it would work. Next day, same thing.
What could explain this? 2 exact same websites....one that is used all the time (no memory issues), and one that is hardly ever used (memory issues). Doesn't really make sense to me.
I have to design asp.net application which has to work on kiosk system. I don't know anything about the kiosk system .so, whether the asp.net application will work on the kiosk system are not I don't know. So any ideas and any sample examples will be very useful for me to start thanking on those lines.
I'm migrating a piece of functionality from my App_Code directory to a separate project that's going to build a class library to be referenced by my web app. One of my classes in the App_Code piece inherits form System.Configuration.ConfigurationSection, like so:
Imports System.Configuration Imports System.Web.Configuration Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic Namespace P10.WebStore #Region "WebStore Section" Public Class WebStoreSection Inherits ConfigurationSection
I absolutely cannot get the project to recognize ConfigurationSection as a class. Nothing I google about this class mentions having to do anything special to use it. Is it because this is a class library and not an .exe or somethign?
The file system I'm publishing to is a not hosted by me, but by my university. IT here offers students their own web directory to host a website. My intention is to use it to host projects for classes and demo them for my professors. You can enter in a specific link in any browser to go to this website and view it as long as there is a file named 'index.html' in the directory with some presentable html code.
So here's the problem. I want my website to be written using ASP.NET and when I use VS2010 to publish my ASP.NET website to the 'File System,' I cannot simply open up my browser, type in the normal link, and have it display. It just shows up as a list of files in the directory and I can see all my source code for the web site
