We have a couple transformations available for our web.config. How can I enable one of our staging or release configurations in my development environment? I'm trying to duplicate an issue from our staging environment in my development environment. Is this possible?

I'm a fan of the new VS 2010 Web.config transformations. I use this feature for deployment purposes and wondered if it is possible to use them for debugging too.I think of using them in the IDE: I want to create different built configuration (with linked transformation configurations); choose one of them; start the web site in the IDE and debug the different configurations this way.
View 3 RepliesI've been searching around on a way to use the new features of web deployment in VS2010, namely the transformations for config files, but everything I reference just says "right-click on web.config and add config transforms".Is it possible to do config transforms (and get all of the other publish goodness) in a 3.5 ASP.Net MVC project in VS2010? Is it just an msbuild file?
View 7 RepliesI found an article which explains how to perform a Web.config transformation on an ASP.Net 4.0 Web Site, but all of my web sites are still running ASP.Net 3.5.[URL]
View 1 RepliesWhen you run an application in the debugger, it appears to not apply the transformations to the web.config based on your build selection. Is this the case or am I missing something? It appears to be working just fine if I publish to local IIS, just does not seem to work in the debugger.
View 1 RepliesIf application is started without debugging - it runs smoothly, when I press F5 I get: "Unable to start debugging on the web server. Could not start ASP.NET debugging. More information may be available by starting the project without debugging. Click Help for more information"I noticed that problems are caused by URL Rewrite section in web.config:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<clear />
<rule name="LowerCaseRule" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="[A-Z]" ignoreCase="false" />
when I comment it out - I can start debugging. Also debugging works on VS's built-in web server.I'm running Win7 64 bit, VS 2010, application's framework is 4.0, in IIS application has ASP.NET 4.0 Intergrated pool set
I really like the new transformation feature for the web.config. It seems to work when I do "Build deployment package" but not when I just want to locally start the debugging using the green arrow. It just uses the web.config without processing theWeb.Debug.config. I can prove that because in web.config I have debug="false" with a transformation in Web.Debug.config so that it gets true but everytime VS asks if it should modify the web.config to enable debugging which it should've done automatically with the following transformation:
[Code]....
Am I missing something here? I used to work with NAnt to modify/create the web.config as a pre-build event but I thought that I wouldn't need it anymore. Am I wrong? The project is a freshly created asp.net mvc 2 web application.
I'm trying to develop my first web application using Web.Config transformations.Trying to run the app (building with the "Dev" build configuration)in the Asp.Net Debugging web server built into VS the site doesn't seem to work - the "Web.Dev.config" configuration doesn't appear to be seen by the application.
View 1 RepliesI've just enabled config transformations on a .NET 3.5 project in VS2010 RC after watching Scott Hanselman's video on web deployment. Unfortunately every time I go to publish I now get the following error:
The "TransformXml" task failed
unexpectedly.
System.UriFormatException: Invalid
[code]...
If I take a brand new VS2010 web application which already has the configtransformations by default I don't have a problem so I suspect my issue is project related.
I want to use the web.config transformation that works fine for publish also for debugging.When i publish a web app, visual studio automatically transforms the web.config based on my currenc build configuration.How can i tell visual studio to do the same when i start debugging.On debug start it simply uses the default web.config without transformation.
View 5 RepliesI have deploy my web site, it contains a project!
in MyWeb there are all the aspx page and some entites datamodel, in MyApp there are the class with function like "getter data from DB" and there is a entity data model.
afeter the deploy, I have only the web.config and the connection string for the entity datamodel....itīs run ok, read/write the data on the DB.
The problem is with MyApp.....after the deploy it is a dll file and I donīt have the app.config and the entity inside it donīt run, not read/write nothing on the DB.
There arenīt error or messager but not read/write the data in the MyApp project.
all run on the iis 7
now...the question is:
I lose the connection string (in app.config) after the deploy?
Can I put a entity in the MyWeb and read it in another project (myApp)?
ps: for connect to DB I use not the c# code:
var db=from x in AccessDB.Example select x;
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?
View 10 RepliesIf I have a dll in bin (in a dev environment) that I need to debug and the dll doesn't currently have its associated PDB file in bin, what's the best way to get the PDB file into bin (if I have the source code of the dll)? Will it work to just copy the PDB to bin, or if I re-add the reference to the source dll through visual studio will that also bring in the pdb?
View 1 RepliesWhile using a third party dll I was getting the following exception - "exePath must be specified when not running inside a stand alone exe" with following trace
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfigurationImpl(ConfigurationFileMap fileMap, Boolean isMachine, ConfigurationUserLevel userLevel, String exePath).
The reason I found was that it was looking for app.config and I had provided the details in web.config. My question is why does the system.configuration differentiate between web.config and app.config.
I upgrade my application from .NET 2.0 to .NET 4.0. Everything went smooth, with very few errors. Now the code is compiling fine, but run time environment is loading the configuration parameters from app.config instead of web.config;Here is my setup:Objects project: has app.configUI project: has web.config, When I run this site, it is fetching the configuration parameters from app.config. Any idea if I need to make any changes to read it from web.config instead of app.config? It used to work fine in my previous environment.
View 8 RepliesI have a server running Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition (Service Pack2) and our IIS server is hosting about 20 different asp.net websites. I've never noticed this in the past, but when I debug an application and it stops at a breakpoint, the other websites hang as well. If I try to go to any of the other websites, then I just get a while page that's loading until i pass the breakpoint or I stop debugging.Does this have anything to do with application pools and if so, how do i fix it? Or if it does not, any ideas on how to fix this issue? I find myself debugging my apps often and I can't bring down all other applications when I do it.
View 2 RepliesI've got two sites hosted on a win2008R2 box that I just moved to .net 4 from 3.5. One worked well, but the other is showing a 500-internal server error on the server. It builds fine in VS, and runs fine in Cassini.I've changed the app pool to .net 4 and copied the new web config into the site, but I still get an error. I did this about a month ago with another site and everything worked fine.I can't use my own error logging code because my app doesn't even get started, and IIS doesn't seem to leave anything in the application event log. Apologies in advance for a dumb question, but where can I get some more detail on this error?500 - Internal server error.There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.
View 8 RepliesIs there any way possible when my site is hosted to some how attach the process so I can debug the errors. Obviously as they are different environments what works in dev doesn't always work in.

Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Core, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'
I have a design issue with a new project, the web application I'm developing is suppose to serve three different segments of business, each segment has a sligthly different requirement, but in all they share most of the same business needs, so I'm creating only one web application.
I've created three "Application" in the asp.net web administration tool.
I want to be able to create users related in each segment with their associated "Application" in membership store.
and when a users login(there is only one login pag) to the application to be redirected to his specified application.
The thing is the web.config configuration alows you to define one "Application" name, and hence the membership APIs pick up only that 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.
I keep getting the all-too-familiar Report Viewer Configuration error, even after double-checking changes in web.config.It worked fine yesterday morning. Then by late afternoon, after I uploaded some site changes, it reverted to throwing the error.Report Viewer Configuration Error
