I have an ASP.NET web application that runs on a windows server 2003 server. there is a form that reads and writes data to an xml file inside the application's directory.
I always grant the NETWORK SERVICE user full control on my application folder so that it can read and write to the xml file. I put the application on another windows server 2003 server and did the same steps above but i was getting an Access denied exception on the form that reads and writes to the xml.
I did some search and found that if you grant the user ASPNET full control to the directory it would work, I did that and it worked fine. my question is: what is the difference between granting full control permissions to NETWORK SERVICE and ASPNET users ? and what can be the difference between the two servers that caused this issue ?
My application creates some images at client machine using client side scripting VBScript. I want to store those images in database, so I need some way to bring those images to server without any interaction with users (means I can not use the file upload control).Along with this, application would also like to use the printer attached to client's machine (it could be her network printer), without showing printer dialog.
Basically I need to create some client piece, dll which will handle the scanning, printing and uploading images from client pc to server and web application will interact with this dll.How could I achieve this? I explored a lot on internet. many articles suggest that use activex control, but how in c#?
I am not asking any spoonfeeding. Please show me correct article or small working sample or example, I would figure out the rest.
i granted ASP.NET account the sql server database access but ASP.NET seems not able to coonect to the database. I normally do this from code in windows XP, but its not working on my windows seven. i guess it should be something close to NT AUTHORITY in place of the MACHINE/ASPNET account which i have tried anyway but still not working.
I have created a .txt file from .net using File.WriteAllText which works fine. Problem is, after being written, I want to grant the file write access so it can be overwritten at some point down the line.
It seems that using Local resources is much more complicated when using Razor. I recently converted an MVC 2 app I was working on to MVC 3. The conversion went well but accessing LocalResources doesn't work and I can't get it to work. In MVC 2 I created an App_LocalResources folder in the /Views/Home folder and created an Index.aspx.resx resource file. In the Index View I could access the local resources with
<%: GetLocalResourceObject("FirstName") %>
Simple, out-of-the-box functionality, as it should be. Razor doesn't understand this. It seems that in Razor you have to use @HttpContext.GetLocalResourceObject(<virtual-path>, <resource-name-key>). I've tried everything for virtual-path but nothing seems to work ("~/", "~/Views/Home/App_LocalResources", etc.). I tried to directly access the resource file by providing the complete namespace, like you do with global resources (which works fine in Razor), but then it errors stating that the culture is required. Intellisense allows you to build the reference to the resource property but Razor doesn't understand it.
Of course an alternative could be to simply use the ASPX rendering engine in MVC 3, but I want to use Razor. Does anyone know an out-of-the-box method (not some exotic work-around) for accessing the LocalResources in an MVC 3 app using Razor?
I'm writing a sample project that supports multilanguage. I'm using Resource files for that. I want to use Local Resources.
Here is what I've done.
1. Add 'App_LocalResources' folder in View/Home/ directory.
2. Add 'Index.resx' for the default language and 'Index.en.resx' for my other language.
3. I've made the Access Modifier as 'Public' and Custom Tool from properties to 'PublicResXFileCodeGenerator' and gave identical Custom Tool Namespace to both of that files ('Example')
4. I put an example 'Title' string in both my resource files and accessed it from my 'Index.cshtml' view in Views/Home directory like this:
[Code]....
When I run the application the default language Title from the Index.resx displays like charm, but when I change the language it can't seem to find the other file 'Index.en.resx' and the Title doesn't change.
For the record I tried the same thing with Global Resources, i.e. Create 2 global resource files and get the title of my Index page from them and it's working, i.e. the language changes when I change the cultures.
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 Premium, version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel, .Net Framework v 4.0.30319 RTMRel and MVC 3
namespace MyControls { public class MenuItem { public MenuItem() { Visible = true; } [Localizable(true)] public string Text { get; set; } [Localizable(false)] public string Link { get; set; } [DefaultValue(true)] public bool Visible { get; set; }
when generating local resources by using ( "Tools"->"Generate Local Resource" ) i noticed that some controls disappear in run time.
is good to take advantage of Visual Studio to automatically generate it? or is better to create resource files and add meta:resourcekey="..." to my page manually??
I am working on website development in asp.net. where i have used Master Page concept and content page. and by using dropdownlist I am changing its language.
I created a website using VS2010. When I run the website using built-in web server, everything works fine. The website recognizes javascript and aurigma uploader. When I publish the website to local folder and tried to access using IIS 5.1 on local pc, the java scipt files did not work. I was getting yellow triangle sign at the bottom of the page indicating the object is expected. I tried to look online but i could not find any answer. I have included jquery and javascript file in the header section of master
I tried searching, but I guess the <% $ %> triggers something on google and it turns up nothing. What is this accessing in an asp.net .aspx page? I've used the = but never a $.
I have an ashx file which returns a localised message. This is called from an Ajax request. I need to access the Asp.net ResourceManager in the ashx file.
My current solution consists of several Class Libraries and a Website. I'm in the process of globalizing the application and I realized that my resources need to be accessed by all the projects not just the website so placing my resources in the App_GlobalResources folder didn't work.
I added my resources to one my class Libraries and now I'm trying to figure out what the best way of accessing the resources are from my markup. When my resources were in the App_GlobalResources folder I was able to access them by using an expression such as this:
<$ Resources: MyApp.Name %> for server controls Or <%=Resources.MyApp.Name %> for plain text
What's the best way of accessing my Resources from my website aspx files now that they are in a Class Library DLL?
Often, out of sheer desperation I will end up enabling "Everyone" access on a folder that a web app is accessing (perhaps for file creation, reading, etc) because I can't figure which user account to enable access on.
Obviously, this is a very bad thing to do. Is there a way to determine what account IIS is using at that exact moment to access folders (and perhaps other resources like SQL Server, etc)?
Are there logs I can look at that will tell me? Or perhaps some other way? I usually use Windows Auth without impersonation. Not sure if that information is relevant.
I have an ASP.Net website, "MyApp", which contains the following resources files:
WebResources.resx WebResources.es.resx
The website references a library project, "MyLib" from which I want to access those resources files. Here is the code I'm attempting:
var rm = new ResourceManager("MyApp", Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()); subject = rm.GetString("HelloMessage"); //always string.empty
The problem is that the executing assembly is always "MyLib" instead of "MyApp". Is it possible to access the resource files embedded in the website project from a library project?
Reposting my unanswered in technet.microsoft question?
MSDN "ASP.NET Delegation" article tells:
1) "When you configure to use a particular account as the process identity, ASP.NET attempts to delegate that account. If it is a local account that is identical (including password) to a local account on a remote machine, delegation is possible. If such an account does not exist on the remote machine, to the network it appears as the Windows anonymous account (NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON). In addition, delegation is also possible if the account is a domain account that has access to the remote machine, in which case it uses the domain network identity of that account."
The same frequently repeated story as in case of manually/interactively accessing remote computer (server resource) in workgroup - it is necessary to create local account with the same username, the same password. But why?
If a workgroup Windows client process cannot access resources on server machine without having duplicate of such (local) account on target machine already pre-created,does it mean that client (process, machine, or user) can access server resources only by/after having logged (opening logon session) into server machine? Or, how to understand that such access is impossible without having corresponding duplicate local account on server machine?
The same MSDN "ASP.NET Delegation" article tells:
"NetworkService account. It behaves the same as the System account. This account possesses the network credentials associated with the machine account (domainnamemachinename) in the domain of which it is a member"
Does not any Windows have accounts ((NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE)? as well as many other common pre-built accounts? Why are they installed (before any joining to domain) but cannot be used for remote network access and client identification ? And what is identity used when the process from workgroup Windows under identity ((NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE) accesses a remote server?

it should be in asp.net. but, it is urgent and important, wish someone here know the answer.
what I need do for an asp.net page is:
1) client select a file, or; 2) client select a folder;
Get file (or files in the folder)'s properties, something like name, ext, etc. and save to db.
it will be easy if it is a desktop app. however, in asp.net, how can I do that? do I have to upload all files to server first? is there a way to do this for all files in a folder? any third party control?
If I have a web application that needs to use a file, it presents the user with a standard open file dialog. But instead of uploading the file to server can it modify the file locally in a temporary location, while uploading in the background? That way the user does not have to wait for the upload before they can use my web app.
2) client select a folder; Get file (or files in the folder)'s properties, something like name, ext, etc. and save to db.

I wrote WCF service and i by creating new Web Sites - i added new WCF service that will host my WCF service.
In the 'Web location' i define the service to be HTTP and the URL to be "http://localhost/MyService"
Now i want to access thru some other machine ( in the same network ) to my machine and get using the Service method that my WCF service exposed - but i fail each time ( calling from the second machine "http://a.b.c.d/MyService/interfaceMethodName")
If i try to call the web service thru the same machine - i get the right response.
