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.
I know there have been countless posts on these types of problems, and I have read through alot of them as well as doing Google searches, but I have not found anything that applies to my specific situation. If anyone has posted a similar question link me to the post with any appropriate derisive comments . Mods if this is the wrong forum feel free to move the post to the appropriate location.
I am a newbie C# developer. I have been getting my feet wet writing a C# web app for my department. I am using the following system:
Windows 7 Professional Visual Web Developer 2010 Version 10.0.30319.1 .Net framework 4.0.30319. IIS version 7.5.7600.16385 Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385CO SQL Server 2008 R2
When I run my application in the VWD debugger everything works fine and looks the way I want it to work. When I deploy to IIS (which is on the same box that I develop on) I start having some issues. Here is a breakdown of the problems I am having:
I have an asp:menu control with orientation set to horizontal. When I initially load the sitre after a deploy the menu displays correctly. But when I go to a different web page in the app the menu switches to vertical and the width of each menu item spans the width of the div that surrounds it. On the same page that causes issues with the asp:menu I also have asp:ComboBox controls that are used to filter information on the page. The combo boxes just look like text boxes. The data that should populate the boxes is not present.
I also have some ajax accordion controls contained in asp:updatepanels, neither of which work. The accordion controls are all expanded, and I cannot collapse them. If I trigger an update the entire page reloads instead of just the specific control.
I do not receive any errors when I browse to the page that causes the problems. It loads just fine everything is just jacked up. Like I said, everything works flawlessly in the VWD debugger. I know the VWD debugger does not use IIS, which makes me think this is an IIS issue, but I do not even know where to start to pinpoint the problem.
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.
I have a Nant build script which referrences 30 other build scripts.
Each build script referrences a visual studio solution using MSBuild.
Each solution has 3 to 5 projects in.
Some projects are Class Librarys and some are Web Apllications.
The projects reference other projects both in their solution and out of their solution, so the projects do not use project references, they reference the the Release DLLs in the Bin folders of the other projects.
To use the software, I need to publish all the solutions together.
Which means I cannot do a deployment which is in debug mode.
Which means I cannot the step into and debug the code.
I would like to run the build script to get a deployment of the software which I can debug.
Debug-Start Debugging/Debug-StartWithoutDebugging OR Project ASP.Net Configuration launches Dreamweaver. It started lastnight, I had both Deamweaver and VWD 2008 express open at the same time - (I was looking at JQuery in the Microsoft and Dreamweaver enviroments simultaniously). After the first tie this happened, I closed down Dreamweaver (CS3) and it opened when I tried to run my VWD project. I reinstalled VWD 2008 express, IIS and disabled Dreamweaver (renamed the exe). Dreamweaver still came up.

I 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.

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.
