Configuration :: Web.config-connectionstrings
May 11, 2010
I use visual studio 2008 login controls to build up a login web page and have a hosting MS SQL with godaddy. After the login page is finished, I went to server explorer to publish DB to provider and save it in .sql. Then I went to godaddy hosting and executed the exported query. I also added the following connectionstrings to the web.config
<connectionStrings>
<remove
name="LocalSqlServer"/> [code]....
When I run the website, I received the following error
Configuration Error
Description:An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
Source Error:
[Code]....
Question 1: I have also copied membership,profile,rolemanager from .NETconfigmachine.config to web.config but it didn't solve the error.Question 2: Can I use this built in control with its express DB or I have to create one by my own? What should I do in web.config for connectionstrings?

Using C#, is there are way to differentiate between ConnectionStrings in the machine.config and the web.config? I would like to iterate over the collection in the web.config but not those from the machine.config. ASP.NET 3.5, C#

Any section in my web.config file that I want to encrypt I run this command line util:
aspnet_regiis -pe "anySection" -app "/SampleApplication"
It all works just fine until I try encrypt my connectionStrings sections
I define (and I cannot change this) my connectionStrings section like this:
[code]....
Is there a way of doing this using the aspnet_regiis util? Doing it with code is not an option for me.
Also is there a way to run this untility without specifing the application (-app "/SampleApplication") instead giving the path to the web.config file?

I fully followed the steps in this page [URL]
look at the step 5 at "Using the Example Provider in an ASP.NET Application" element , I entered the command "
aspnet_regiis.exe -pe "connectionStrings" -app "/SessionState" -prov "TripleDESProvider"
" at the windows command line, it asked me "The protection provider 'TripleDESProvider' was not found"
I make sure the files keys.snk and keys.txt are in the same folder and the file web.config is correct. Who can tell me the reason for the error and how do I handle with it?

I'm all set on the server side with the RSA key pair installed. Where I'm hung up is trying to get the job done on the web.config file ... can't seem to get the aspnet_regiis command string right. I am using the command string provided by the web host (DiscountAsp.net). Most (all) of the examples I read use a website on the development machine. I actually registered my project in IIS and tried that but it didn't work. In any case I would rather not have to go to the hassle of registering a project in IIS anyway if I can avoid it.
Details:
My web application project is in a folder on my local machine:
D:Projects<project name>
This is most recent (failed) attempt to use aspnet_regiis:
C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319aspnet_regiis.exe -pe "connectionStrings" "D:Projects<project name>"
Is it possible to just do this manually by looking at the NetFrameworkConfigurationKey_xxxxx.xml file and entering the values? Seems like it should be do-able except I'm not sure how to parse the xml file for the correct values.
On a related note, when I add the following code to web.config it "announces" that "The keyContainerName attribute is not allowed". Ditto useMachineContainer

I have been reading up on encrypting the connectionStrings section of the web.config file and I have noticed that all of the methods embed the cypher key in either the registry or the machine.config file. My site is currently being hosted for me by a hosting company and as such I do not have direct access to the registry (or aspnet_regiis for that matter). I was wondering what options are available to me if I cannot use the usual aspnet_regiis method or am I misreading the posts?

How do I use aspnet_regiis to encrypt <connectionStrings> on a website that is hosted remotely? I guessing I need to use a machine-level container? I was able to do it locally with a user level container using this command:
aspnet_regiis -pef "connectionStrings" C:mysite -prov "DataProtectionConfigurationProvider"
but now I need to encrypt parts of the web.config in my real site hosted remotely and don't know how to do it I've created a custom RSA key and exported it to an xml file (is that the right way to do it?) but how do I use it in the web.config file?

I have this error: The configuration section 'connectionStrings' cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration on my site when loading this page [URL]. The rest of the site works [URL] Setup:The server is a hosting company - Mocha Hosting. [URL] contains a phpbb forum. This has been installed via the hosting company's web tool (Plesk). There is a root web.config, but there isn't in the /forum/ folder. The forum folder has been set by the phpbb installation wizard to be a virtual directory and application - and it appears to not have asp.net configured on it. The forum worked BEFORE uploading the root web.config file, and again if i temporarily remove the root web.config.

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;

While using a third party dll I was getting the following exception - "exePath must be specified when not running inside a stand alone exe" with following trace
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfigurationImpl(ConfigurationFileMap fileMap, Boolean isMachine, ConfigurationUserLevel userLevel, String exePath).
The reason I found was that it was looking for app.config and I had provided the details in web.config. My question is why does the system.configuration differentiate between web.config and app.config.

I upgrade my application from .NET 2.0 to .NET 4.0. Everything went smooth, with very few errors. Now the code is compiling fine, but run time environment is loading the configuration parameters from app.config instead of web.config;Here is my setup:Objects project: has app.configUI project: has web.config, When I run this site, it is fetching the configuration parameters from app.config. Any idea if I need to make any changes to read it from web.config instead of app.config? It used to work fine in my previous environment.

Web.config is the main settings and configuration file for an ASP.NET web application. The file is an XML document that defines configuration information regarding the web application. The web.config file contains information that control module loading, security configuration, session state configuration, and application language and compilation settings. Web.config files can also contain application specific items such as database connection strings
Example 1:
<!-- This is an example Web.config file -->
[Code]....
In this article, we will see how to read the configuration settings in the web.config using 'JavaScript'.
Step 1: Create a new ASP.NET website. Add a button control to the Default.aspx.
Step 2: Right click the project > Add New Item > Web Configuration File
Add the following sample entry to the appSettings section in the web.config between the <configuration> tag as shown in the example 1:
<add key="var1" value="SomeValue"/>
Step 3: To read these entries using JavaScript, add the following script in the <head> tag of your Default.aspx page as shown below:
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ReadConfigSettings()
{
var v1 = '<%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["var1"].ToString() %>'
alert(v1);
}
</script>
</head>
Step 4: Call this function on a button click and display the values of the configuration settings
<input type="button" value="Get" onclick="ReadConfigSettings();" />
That's it. Run the application and click the button. The value of the key in the appSettings will be displayed in the alert window. I hope you liked this short article.

I'm preparing to deploy a ASP.NET web application. The target server has already a previous version of my web application with parameters specified on the web.config file.
In the new version of this web application, the web.config file contains new sections I would like they appear into the target web.config file on the server.
However I can't find the way to merge the new web.config sections into the existing web.config file ?
Does I have to do it programmatically, or is there a tool to merge the both files during installation ? (I'm using Web Setup Project).

I'm trying to run my simple application online for the first time but keep getting the following error for pages with sqldatasources on them:
Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication.
I read somewhere that it's because I'm using Windows Authentication for my connectionstrings and that to avoid this error I should use sql authentication. I'm using Visual Studio 2008. How does one go about getting a .MDF database to use sql or mixed mode authentication rather than Windows?
I'm stumped because I know I'd have to add users to "security" but I just don't know where I'd do it because when I right click on app_data, add new item and add sql server database it does not further ask if I want the new mdf file to use sql authentication, which is what I want so my connectionstrings don't produce the error I've bolded above.

I am writing a login routine that uses a .NET login control and I have a membership provider as well and set it all up in the config file. But I don't plan on using a connection string as I will be calling a web service in my ValidateUser function. Do I need the connection string in the config because it seems to throw an error if I don't have it.
In that case if you need it then wouldn't it be better to treat this membership provider class more as a normal class and just make calls to it directly like any class and not put any setting on my login control and remove the entry from my web.config

For example, I have these connectionstrings in my web.config:
<add name="xxx1" connectionString="..."/>
<add name="xxx2" connectionString="..."/>
I want to put 2 connection strings into my aspx.cs page; xxx1 and localsqlserver. I tried to do:
string strConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["LocalSqlServer"].ConnectionString;
strConnectionString += ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["xxx1"].ConnectionString;
but it cannot "detect" the LocalSqlServer. I am trying to populate a GridView with fields from 2 different database, hence I need 2 connectionstrings. Example of my SQL statements:
string strCommandText = "SELECT aspnet_Users.UserName, TableA.Field1, ";
strCommandText += " FROM aspnet_Users, TableA, TableB";
strCommandText += " WHERE aspnet_Users.UserID=TableA.UserID, TableA.ID=TableB.ID";

I've been searching around on a way to use the new features of web deployment in VS2010, namely the transformations for config files, but everything I reference just says "right-click on web.config and add config transforms".Is it possible to do config transforms (and get all of the other publish goodness) in a 3.5 ASP.Net MVC project in VS2010? Is it just an msbuild file?
