How To Programmatically Store (save) SMTP Server Details Back To Web.config

Nov 4, 2010

Searching StackOverflow, I found this question on how to Retrieve SMTP settings from Web.Config, but no details on how to update the SMTP back to the web.config file.

I started with the following code:

Configuration webConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~");
MailSettingsSectionGroup settings =
(MailSettingsSectionGroup)webConfig.GetSectionGroup("system.net/mailSettings");
SmtpSection smtp = settings.Smtp;
SmtpNetworkElement net = smtp.Network;

but was quickly clued in by Intellisense that SmptSection.Network is a Get (aka "read-only") accessor.

So how am I supposed to programmatically write my SMTP data back to web.config?

Configuration :: Select Web.Config File Programmatically?

May 2, 2010

I have 1 web application, 2 databases (same design, with different data), and 2 web.config files (web1.config. web2.config) ;

What I do need is a way to change the web.config file name programaticcaly on code behind.

So, this way I can select on runtime accoerding to the current theme the web.config currently being used.

Ofcourse that if I could do inheritnce of the web.config files it would be te best approaach, but only one web.config file is allowed per directory.

deploy this configuration to achieve a multiple websites to one web project.

Configuration :: Unable To Access Connection String In Machine.config

Nov 14, 2010

I have a Windows Service I have developed in Visual Studio 2005 (C#).

It accesses a database using a connection string in machine.config.

On my Windows XP Pro 32bit (SP3) machine, it works correctly.

On my new Windows 7 Pro 64bit machine, it throws "object not set to an instance of an object" when it gets to the line where it's trying use the connection string.

This is the 'object' which is not set in Windows 7:

ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyDatabase"].ConnectionString

The machine.config has the same connection string set up on both machines.

A .Net 2 website transferred to the Windows 7 machine has no problem accessing the same connection string.

I have tried a bunch of different permissions on the machine.config and its containing folders, and setting the service to log in as Admin, but I don't know exactly what permissions are required.

Unable To Read Config Settings From External Config Files

Sep 1, 2010

We are experiencing some strange behaviour on one of our ASP.NET web servers (Windows 2003 64-bit). After some activity, two third-party controls are unable to run correctly. One is log4net (it does not write error messages out) and the other is a menu control (it displays eval message instead of picking up its license). The one common thread is that both controls pick up their config from external config files (linked to from web.config).

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this or experienced this in any way. Is it related to file/folder rights? The server has been running fine for a while and just started exhibiting this behaviour. Perhaps it occurs around the time the worker processes are recycled.

.net - Path Access In Web.config Without Using Forms Authentication?

Oct 14, 2010

I am required to control access to a specific file on our server. I suggested, for the time being (rather than affording time for other routes until we can), that we simply use the web.config to lock this file down to everyone by means of a location/system.web/authorization setting.

This soon failed to protect the resource and I quickly became aware why (I think). It is a public site and is not using Forms authentication (currently just defaulting to Windows).

So, for clarity, here are the relevant parts the config file...

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
</system.web>
<location path="thefile.extension">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
</configuration>

Can I secure this resource without turning on Forms authentication? Or can I turn authentication on but never actually require authentication to occur, by allowing all resources but the ones explicitly stated, or by explicitly stating all allowed and denied resources?

Configuration :: Deploy Web.config And App.config Connection String?

May 3, 2010

I 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;
