I want to put website in maintenance mode, so i can rollover my new stuff. How can i keep users away from loging into my website and i will test my website live.
App_offline.html takes admin away as well. Is there any logical way of doing this?
In one of our ASP.NET Web site solutions I need to roll out an update that might take reasonable time. It spawns multiple Windows Azure Workers and projects and so simple Deployment Swap is ruled out.
Essentially I'm just thinking about way to redirect all web requests to a "site is under maintenance" page for some time, given the project is under Windows Azure.
I'm aware of the app-offline.htm trick with IIS, but I doubt that Azure Web Role will allow this one to be deployed or run (it spins down the app domain).
I have an ASP.NET site that I'm going to have to take down to make some major structural updates to, and I was wondering how I should go about it from the client-side perspective. I have heard of an App_Offline.htm file or something like that, but I've never really gotten that to successfully work. Does anyone know how to do this?
EDIT
My app is running ASP.NET 4.0, for what it is worth.
By defauly in my web.config I have set the , in runtime I just want to change the Mode = "Off" in memory. I do not want to save the changes to web.config.
Basically we need to see the description of the runtime error, when required.
any way to deploy code with both release and debug mode together. I know it is logically impossible.
My requirement is to deploy debug based aspx page(for temporary) in release mode build in prod.. the concept is to avoid to put full release build on production again & again.
I want to make a 2nd website and am using a copy of the site files from my 1st site built for me, I added them via FTP to the hosting company. I realise when I edit the new site via the CMS it is editing both sites plus when I try to change anything to the CSS file I get the following error -
So my questions are what do I need to change to be able to deploy a new site with the files I have to make a new site?I also don't understand where the password is coming from, I can see the User ID comes from the database. in the Asp.net connection strings are the following:
site Data Source=sql7.hostinguk.net;Initial Catalog=***;User ID=***;Password=*** - Where is this password coming from?
membership Data Source=sql7.hostinguk.net;User ID=***;Password=***;persist security info=False;initial catalog=***;
I installed Visual Studio 2008 in my machine. Both c# and vb.net are working properly, but my problem is asp.net is not working. If we are taking a new website project there is no design mode in default.aspx means at the bottom there is no design, source, split. If we go to View->Design then one error message is popup that there is no editor available for this Default.aspx. Again in Tools->Options->Html Designer will shows that an error occurred loading this property page. My OS is Windows Xp Professional 2002, IIS is also checked on .I don't know what to do.....
What I'm looking to do is lock the application so the admin can do maintenance for however long. All i want to do is be able to click a button on a "maintenance" page and it makes it so anyone who attempts to use the system and anyone who is already in the system is redirected to a page, if they try to do anything, that says the site is down for maintenance.
on postback, on redirect, etc. No Access until that button is clicked again to unlock.
I fill a third-pard component variable in Global.Application_BeginRequest(). Everything is fine until I set IIS7 into the Integrated mode. In that case the method Application_BeginRequest() is not called (Application_Start is ok).May be some module is registered wrong?(I have found a same problem here on forum, but without a solution:[URL]
Just to describe the scenario. I have a website. This lives on a webserver. On that webserver is an SQL server. The website connects to this database using windows authentication. I have written a windows form application that connects to the SQL Server on the webserver. This application is being run from a location on out intranet. The Winform application use SQL authentication to connect to the database. The SQL Server didn't have mix mode authentication enabled. So I enabled it. The winform application could now connect to the SQL Server.
This is where it starts getting a little strange.
The Website that was already connecting find using integrated authentication starts failing with:
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'
When you are enabling mixed mode authentication, you are adding another authentication method, why would the original Windows authentication fail?
I'm trying to run a website (site2) that I've placed inside a folder (dir-site2) of another website (site1). The default file of site2 displays fine in every browser on my local computer, as in when I type http://localhost:45912/www.site1.com/dir-site2/default.aspx. But when I upload everything to my host's server and type this
http://www.site1.com/dir-site2/default.aspx I get a server "can't access" error message. I can't display any file that is inside the subdirectory, dir-site2.
How does one put up a server maintenance page or reference..
Do you build a whole separate asp.net project with you basic page and logo and use that on the domain, until your main project is back up and running..
I'm looking for a simple webform for maintenance of a SQL Server which has only two columns: LookupID (int, not null) identity and LookupValue (nvarchar (50), not null).
Would adding "X-UA-Compatible: IE=EmulateIE7" as an http header to trigger IE9 to render in compatibility mode negatively affect performance on the server? I made the change today, adding it, but now some areas of our site are behaving sluggishly, though we did have a large number of changes come in overnight. I know that we can't single out this as the problem, but my boss seems to think it is.
I set up a really simple custom membership provider for my website, it is on shared hosting with 123reg which operate in medium trust mode. Due to this the membership provider throws an error. how it would work on medium trust on shared hosting? The hosting doesnt allow me to set the applications trust mode either.
I am trying to export crystal report to pdf inĀ asp.net, though the code is working well on localhost but on server I get error
HTTP Error 500.23 - Internal Server ErrorAn ASP.Net setting detected that does not apply in Integrated managed pipeline mode.
The crystal report is showing abnormal behaviors.I am using a CrystalReportViewer on which i have set the CrystalReportSource1 using the viewer Tasks.
The code on page load is :-
cn.Open(); DataSet ds = new DataSet(); string sql = "select * from Test"; OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(sql, cn); da.Fill(ds);
[Code].....
During the troubleshooting i encountered another unusual issue, where i tried a new crystal report with just simple report. That simple crystal report is not showing data & the toolbar images are not rendered. I googled on this but didn't found conclusive thing.
A web application works with the database. Once a day, the database should be scanned and alerts should be sent to users. From what I've seen out there, additional project has to be created which will be installed on the server and will work with the same database. Executable created by this project has to be installed in Windows scheduler to be activated once a day.This seems complicated and inefficient: starting additional executable and working on the same database.
I have been tasked with producing a web application for a new client. What they're looking for requires a Gridview with slave Detailsview within an Update Panel.
I produced this, including the Gridview in markup, as follows:[Code].... [Code]....
However, although it works, it's been requested that I move most of this to code behind (for easier maintenance), which is causing me a few headaches.
What is the correct option here, since I see many potential methods?
Should I create an instance of the Gridview and Update Panel in markup, then define all events and columns in code behind? Create a new Gridview entirely in code behind and place it within the Update Panel? Create both in code behind?
