I finished an intranet application using webconfig to store my connection string to an Access database which has linked tables to SQL Server 2005.
Everything works perfectly, but when I publish the application on a IIS server service, it seems like all connections fail... :(
I looked up on internet but found nothing on this. I think my webconfig file is correct :

I am new to the asp .net (c#) technology.I got an assignment to work on a existing C# project which is alreay live and working.I have downloaded all the code files from the given FTP server on my local server.My Local Server Environment Details :OS - WinXP.NET Framework Version - 2.0 ( There are different versions on the machine i.e. 1.0,1.1,2.0,3.0,3.5 but through IIS i have enabled 2.0 because the application is developed in 2.0)Visual Studio - 2003 In the downloaded source code i did not found any solution file to open the project in Visual Studio , So i created the new project and by using the add existing elements i added all the project files to the newly created project.Am i doing right way.Will my application will work when i will upload the code on live server because the solution file would have mylocal machine configuration.Suggest me how can i proceed in long term vision so that in future i do not face any problem during application release.
View 1 RepliesI have developed a web application using Visual Studio 2010 and in that application I have used AjaxControlToolkti 3.5 in some pages. When I go to Solution Explorer->References I have AjaxControlToolKit.dll file and if I take the property of that file i see the following in PATH field E:My DataEBPMinAjaxControlToolkit.dll which is a path of my development machine.
After that I went to my UAT machine (windows xp + IIS 6.0) copy the entire project in a folder of UAT machine, created a virtual directory, provided Alias and the Directory.Now when I access my UAT server from outside it works perfect except it throws "RunTime Error" on those pages where I have used
<%@ Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="cc1" %>
I guess as my AjaxControlToolkit path is refereing to my development machine location therefore its throwing error...what's the solution without making proper deployment. Actually on our UAT all the applications are using IIS 6.0 and if i go on proper deployment and IIS 7.0 (i guess it requires for deployment from Visual Studio 2010) I will have to reconfigure all the applications on UAT which I cannot do at this moment.
Can I create an incremental deployment package using either Visual Studio 2010 Web Deployment Projects or Web Deploy (Web Deployment Tool) .
I need to automatically select changed files from a source and destination or a change set on TFS and build a deployment package only with the changed files.
If we are deploying ASP.NET web application, Do we need to copy both *.aspx and *.aspx.cs files on the server?Also what if I am using different framework version? I mean 1.1 / 2.0 /3.0 /3.5 /4.0? What will be the answer in different .NET Framework versions?
View 5 RepliesI am using WIX 3.6 for VS2010 to create our MSI's for our web application setups. This is all working fine and all in terms of deployment and uninstall.
I recently allowed the user to specify the virtual directory and application pool names to support side by side installs. This is all fine as I have created my own setup bootstrapper.
The issue is with uninstallation.
If the user does not specify the names and leaves the default values, it will install successfully.
The minute the user updates the names from the defaults, the install process will not remove the app-pool and virtual directory. This is what I have found consistently with my testing.
We are working on an asp.net project. There are 5 developers in the team. The team size might increase in future. Deployment of the project, often creates some problems for us. We are using svn (very much like vss) to update and commit our codes to a common location.Apart from all these, the changes made by one developer sometimes affects the changes made by another. We usually move only the aspx files and dlls to the server. This causes lots of issues to the testing team as the testers need to check the entire application whenever a dll is updated on the server. We are now looking for a deployment method, that includes both pre-compilation as well a means that enables us to do patch releases (like making a change to the aspx.cs alone without having to update the entire dll) If it is not possible, what is the best deployment method that would suit our requirements?
View 2 RepliesWhile developing my web application I was testing using the cassini web server and everything works great! So my program is complete and I am trying to publish it out to a client IIS server on a Windows 2008 R2 server. I have created an app.pool for this application and set it to run with a domain admin users (I am not using the "Administrator" account) since the file processing will be writing the file to a NAS device via a UNC path. When I start the debugging on the server and look at task manager it shows that the "w3wp.exe" is running using the domain admin account, but when I run my code it does not give me a run time error I just get the following warning in the event log.
View 11 Repliesmultiple websites in a webfarm. I need to deploy multi lingual sites under iis likewww.xxx.com will point to a folder where I want to keep all the files and bin folder but the folders below like /en, /fr, /es etc will be having the web.config inherited from the root folder. My problem is1. How to share the bin in the root folder with other websites beneath it. like I havewww.xxx.com pointing to xxx directory and I have /en pointing to xxx/en. Rather than me copying the bin folder to every website? I cannot place in gac as this is multi server env. is there a way i can set all the servers gac to get dlls from one directory?

How to use encrypt web.config in deployment?Where it should be kept?
Or in other way how to encrypt web.config file in deployment?
First of all, I am trying to deploy a web application, without virtual directory. Yes...I have no other option but to try this due to some non-tehnical constraints.
Now, I have developed an ASP.NET 3.5 Web application, which works fine on my local ASP.NET Development Web Server. Then, I published the application to the actual webserver using the VS2008 Publish... option. When I got some error messages related to web.config, I removed the corresponding items from the web.config.
When I can access the page but the code inside the page doesn't really work. When I open the Default.aspx, which is directly under the website, I keep on getting this error:
Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'DynamicLoadControl' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
This DynamicLoadControl is a class that I have developed and is present in App_CodeDynamicLoadControl.cs file (in the same namespace).
I have searched a lot and tried everything except creating a virtual directory. First of all, is it possible to have asp.net 3.5 website without virtual directory.
I am using the Standard edition of VS2008 to develop a website locally. Now, I am ready to upload the website to a remote server, but I cannot find any output to transfer. I clicked on the "Build Web Site" option of the "Build" drop-down list and got a "Build Succeeded" message, but nothing else.
I only found a file of type "Visual Studio Solution user Options". It was in a folder under a "Projects" folder within the "Visual Studio 2008" subdirectory. Does that one file contain everything needed for the website to function on the remote server?
I also found another folder along with the file named "PrecompiledWeb". This folder contained web page files and related static files of a previous precompile operation, but no newer files. There was also a "bin" folder with old compiled files and application extension files. I cannot find newly compiled files anywhere. What am I doing wrong?
I've deployed a test project onto one of our web servers, and it doesn't appear that the CSS file is taking correctly. The page loads fine, but the styles aren't there. It looked fine in dev, but not now. Any thoughts on what's going on? I'm sure there is an easy solution, but I'm very new to the ASP.NET world.
View 6 RepliesIn the properties for the web development project I have to specify a name for the dll and this dll gets put into the build target of the deployment propject.
Why is this?
after deploying my web app to a new server using the add web setup method, I tried to run it from the browser but I am getting the error http 403 forbidden. I tried using previous suggestions to similar questions by checking enable anonymous access, and using https and trying to access a page but did not work.The application runs fine on my machine when running it from visual studio, but fails after running the setup.exe file on the production server.
View 2 RepliesIn VS 2010 I have created an ASP.NET website. When I press the green play button {Debug} the site runs on my local server fine with no errors at all.
Finally I was happy with the site, so I went and purchased Windows Shared Hosting. I got all the details ..etc
Then in VS 2010 I right-clicked on the solution and choose Publish Website. I enetered my ftp details .. it asked me for username and pass < I provided those and clicked OK.
All seemed fine ! the files transfered over to the server ..etc But for some reason I now get errors !
I have developed an ASP.NET MVC 2 application for a client using Framework 4.0 & Visual Studio 2010 and tested it on IIS 7 locally. My client has a windows 2003 server running IIS 6 and Framework 2.0 installed. They are already running some web forms applications on that server.I have a few queries regarding deployment of my application to that server:1. Do I need to install anything else other than Framework 4.0 on that server? Any ASP.NET MVC Components?2. Will installing Framework 4.0 break their existing applications?3. What is the best deployment strategy ?
