Configuration :: Making A Website Available Online?
Jun 19, 2010
I have a developed a new website for online document management. I have setup everything on the local network and the site is available on localhost. What I want to do is to make it available on internet. Its my first web project and configuring IIS and resolving database problems after publishing was real headache for me apart from development work (thats another long story). But i have made it up to here (with the help of a lot of people in this forum) and now there is one more step.
How to make a web server live?
I am using asp .net 3.5. The server is in my home (windows xp, IIS 6, microsoft sql server 2005, 10MB bandwidth for internet connection).
I dont want to buy a domain because the website is not commercial. Its just me and my friend who will be using the website and we dont mind putting in ip address. Also, do I have to get a static ip from my ISP?
I have never put a website online before so I want to know a few things.
I understand that you must buy a domain name like 'www.example.co.uk' to get to your site.
1) If I bought a domain name from www.123-reg.co.uk and used their hosting package, how would I get it online. I have already completed my website. Can I still put it on?
2) On their website, it says that you need to buy databases (I think) and add them to the hosting package? I have already got databases in use on my website. What does this mean?
3) Could you in brief sum up the steps of outting a website online.
I was working on some website in ASP.NET 3.5 on VS 2010. Though, some of the work is left, I intend to make it live. I have a domain and a host. But are there any chnages to be done in web.config etc before uploading? or how does this process work?
I want to create a Online Exam site in ASP.NET .In that i want to display Test based on the Date and time and the user can take the test at the time set my the Teacher.
For Example:
Teacher want to take C Test for the Mid Semester Test and the test is schedule on 1 May 2010,then the test should appear on the test page on the 1st may only and the user should be able to take the test on the set time.
The problem is that if i use System time then user can change the system time and can take the test schedule in future.
So i want to know how can implement this thing.I have given many online test but dont know how they work out the time and date logic.
Well I have recently been working with profiles and its been going well. When I load my website within Visual Studio it created an MDB within app_data called aspnetdb.mdb and from then on it uses this database to store data that my users have chosen or entered. When I upload the website it fails because it can't find or create the database above. (even if I upload the mdb that was created on my local machine) I have tried to resolve this issue by changing my web.config file as below
I also made an SQL database on the server called totallyu_profiles and set up a user for it. I can connect to that database by using ODBC on my local machine. I can't however upload my current database created by Visual studio to the totallyu_profiles database so it is empty, I was wondering if it will fill the tables itself when the connection string is okay. One other thing to note is that my site errors very quickly with the above connection string and if I don't include the string and use the default then it takes ages. Can I somehow just point the connection string to my database within App_Data?
Me with C# asp.net, I want to make a public forum in my website. Any good article for making forum will be helpful. Is there any bultin fourms that can be used in .Net?
