I have a requirement to automate the testing of .net application that generates some output files in pdf or html based on account number. How can I automate it to compare the results from DEV environment and the production environment? What is the best way to do so?
View 4 RepliesI need to compare two csv files fields via c# alone where I need to give the path of both the files.
There is no asp.net web page only via c# code to compare the two contents with semi colon separated.
When I create a form, I try to make accessibility a top priority, but the output from asp .NET negates some of this. For example, when I set a label tag for an input tag, I create it a such:
<label for="frmFirstName">First Name<span class="required">*</span></label>
<asp:TextBox id="frmFirstName" CssClass="textbox" runat="server" />
label for="frmFirstName">First Name<span class="required">*</span></label>
<input name="ctl00$phMainContent$frmFirstName" type="text" id="ctl00_phMainContent_frmFirstName" class="textbox" />
When attempting to place controls in different content areas using Masterpages and trying to use a compare validator, I get the error: Unable to find control id 'txtStartDate' referenced by the 'ControlToCompare' property of 'cvlDate'. I have also attempted to set it within the c# code behind in page load: cvlDate.ControlToCompare = txtStartDate.ID and by using findControl there must be an easy way to achieve this?
<asp:Content ID="Content4" ContentPlaceHolderID="leftForm" Runat="Server">
<asp:Label ID="lblStartTimeEnter" runat="server" Text="Start Time:" Width="100px"/>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtStartTime"runat="server" MaxLength="50" Width="250"/>
</asp:content>
<asp:Content ID="Content4" ContentPlaceHolderID="rightForm" Runat="Server">
<asp:label ID="lblEndDateEnter" CssClass="formMargin labelInput" runat="server" Text="End Date:" Width="100px"/>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtEndDate" CssClass="formMargin" runat="server" MaxLength="20" Width="250" ClientIDMode="Static"/>
<asp:CompareValidator ID="cvlDate" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtEndDate" ControlToCompare="txtStartDate" Operator="GreaterThan" Type="Date" ErrorMessage="Start Date must be before End Date" > *</asp:CompareValidator>
</asp:content>
I have a Web Deployment Project in my solution. The solution consists of the MVC2 App and another Class Library.
In the Web Deployment Project properties I have the Merge all outputs to a single assembly option ticked and I have given it a name.
When I look in the bin folder I have all my reference DLL's from my MVC app, a DLL with the name of my MVC project and then a DLL by then name I gave it when choosing the Merge all outputs to a single assembly option.
I imagined this option would create 1 DLL not all DLL's plus another one.
how I can add outputs to my vb.net functions? The reason for this is that I have functions which return data tables for grid views. But I also want to pass a return value back to the calling routine, so that it knows whether the function succeeded or failed. It would also be good to pass strings back too, in addition to the returned data table.
View 7 RepliesI am trying to change where XmlSerializer Outputs Temporary Assemblies so I am following this sort of tutorial

I have a custom control which is rendered as a hyperlink:
Public Class TestControl
Inherits System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl
Implements IPostBackEventHandler
Public Sub RaisePostBackEvent(ByVal eventArgument As String) Implements System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler.RaisePostBackEvent
Trace.WriteLine("Hyperlink 1 clicked")
End Sub
Protected Overrides Sub Render(ByVal writer As System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter)
writer.WriteLine("<a href=""{0}"" id=""{1}"">Hyperlink 1</a>", _
Page.ClientScript.GetPostBackClientHyperlink(Me, "Hyperlink 1"), _
Me.ClientID)
End Sub
End Class
This works fine. It also works nicely when put inside an UpdatePanel: Only the UpdatePanel is refreshed, no full postback is performed.
Now I would like to output a second hyperlink in the Render method. If I use the same id (Me.ClientID), everything works nicely, but this obviously results in broken HTML (no two controls are allows to have the same id attribute). If I use different client IDs (like Me.ClientID & "_1" and Me.ClientID & "_2"), a full postback is performed when the hyperlinks are clicked.
Is there some way to tell ASP.NET AJAX: "All postbacks of the following client IDs should be done asynchronously: ..."?

My company is interested in using C# to build their intranet website.

View 3 Replieswhats a good way to be able to keep 2 connection strings to SQL server in the web .comfig and have the app pick the correct one when its in the prod and dev servers?
i think i saw once some cool ways to keep variables like app settings holding two sets of values just like i am trying to do with my connection string to SQL... but i diont remmeber where i saw it..
my dev and prod servers vary by the port they use. so i have mysite.com and mysite.com:81
I have a simple datatable with 2 fields, one a primary key which I will call PK and other which I will call COL1. I have used the dataset designer to generate update/insert/delete methods on the tableadapter. On my development system two update methods are generated wit hthe follow signatures:
Update(PK as System.String, COL1 as System.Bool, Original_PK as System.String)
Update(COL1 as System.Bool, Original_PK as System.String)
On the production system, however, the latter signature is not generated. What is more preplexing is that prior to today, production operated similar to test. Obviously somethign changed, but I have been unable to identify what.
Unfortunately the method being used now is the latter. Now I can create my own method with a similar signature, but this problem isn't unique to this datatable/tableadapter. I am very hesitent to make thsi change throughout the application, and even more so in touching the several other applications which I fear may have similar issues (though those rely less on generated udpates).
I am writing a program that uses a .dotx template and does a merge of data in an aspx page. The program works perfect on my Dev workstation locally but when I deploy it to a test IIS server, it fails on the second line below giving me an Object Reference error.
I ran into problems earlier because the Word Com object was not on the IIS server so I loaded Word onto the server and set permission in DCom and got past that problem. But now I get this error on the line that starts with wRange = . As I said, the program works perfectly locally in debug mode.
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.DocumentClass
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
lines of code:
Document BaseDocument = oWord.Documents.Open(ref oTemplate, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
wRange = BaseDocument.Bookmarks.get_Item(ref endOfDoc).Range;
My web.config is set up so that I don't have to change anything between deploy from UAT and Production. I can determine what machine it is running on and then programatically pick the correct connection string etc from the web.config based on the name.
Now we are adding a call to a web service which now causes us to have to make a change at deploy time. We set a "Region" flag in the web.config and then in coded an IF statement to call the appropriate webservice based on the flag so all we'd have to change is the "T" to a "P" when moving to production. But then hardcoding a web service in the application is not what we want to do. Nor do we want to change the web service address in the web.config.
Is there any way we can do something like the following to be able to not have to change the web.config at deploy?
It would be something like:
1. Grab current Machine name
2. Look in web.config for corresponding machine name web service reference (like we do for connection strings etc)
3. Use that web service in the processing.
In development I installed "ODAC Entity Framework and LINQ Beta (11.2.0.2.30)" so that we could have a 32 bit version of Oracle.DataAccess for ODP.Net. In Visual Studio 2010 (on Windows Server 2008 R2) I made a reference to:
C:Oracleodp.netin4Oracle.DataAccess.dll.This adds: <add assembly="Oracle.DataAccess, Version=4.112.2.30, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89B483F429C47342" /> to the assembly in the web.config.
We set the AppPool to Enable 32 bit applications and everything works great. For anyone who doesn't know the story here, we do this because Visual Studio 2010 runs in 32 bit so you need the 32 bit ODAC/ODP.net components to get a development environment running. I then publish the files and move to a 64 bit machine.
I downloaded the "ODAC112021Xcopy_x64.zip" Then ran: install.bat odp.net4 c:oracle odac and I can see the Oracle.DataAccess.dll file at: C:Oracleodp.netin4Oracle.DataAccess.dll. Then added c:oracle;c:oraclein;c:oraclein4 to the System Path.
At this point I would think I just replace the version and PulbicKeyToken in: <add assembly="Oracle.DataAccess, Version=4.112.2.30, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89B483F429C47342" />
on production to the versioin installed on prod. So first thing I do is just remove that line on production to see what error I will get. And I still get the same error:
System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=4.112.2.30, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
Actually this is if I move the new dll into the applicaitons bin directory. If I remove the dll from the directory I get: Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=4.112.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
So I put the line back in.
I right click on on the new Oracle.DataAccess.dll and click properties. In the details tab I see verion is 4.112.2.0. That makes sense. The 64 bit XCopy version is an earlier build then the 32 bit Beta that comes with Entity Framework and LINQ(Version=4.112.2.30).
So on production I change the Version attribute to: 4.112.2.0. But now I get the same error: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=4.112.2.30, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
(This is with the new dll back in the web app's bin directory as is the rest of the thread).
It's still looking for the same version of the assembly. Why is it doing that? The web.config has a connection string with the ODP.Net provider type (Oracle.DataAccess.Client). Which would take from the assembly reference. It should not care what the version number is. Could there be something in code somewhere that is specifically looking for the old dev box version? Just what is the way to make it use the new assembly?
I would think the system would just know where to find the new dll. Just as in development the add reference dialog knew that the dll was in c:oracle... rather then c:program files(x86)... like out-of-the-box Microsoft assemblies.
Kindly let me know why my appln redirects me to Session TimeOut page on a simple postback. This doesnot happen on my local pc but happens only on prod. Here is the code I m using on my PageBase.cs 's Init method

I am trying to check for a condition such that a date in an input control (textbox) is not greater from a date 1 years from current date(exactly) and also it should not be less than a date 1 year back from current date. for eg. if today's date is "21/dec/1990" then usen cannot enter a date in textbox which is less than 21/dec/89 and it should not be greater than 21/dec/1991. for this i first tried to confirm the greater than condition, i wrote the following code:
<asp:TextBox
ID="TxtSessionFrom"
runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:CompareValidator
ID="CompareValidator1"
runat="server"
ControlToValidate="TxtSessionFrom"
ErrorMessage="CompareValidator"
Operator="GreaterThanEqual"
Type="Date"></asp:CompareValidator>
CompareValidator1.ValueToCompare=(DateTime.Now.AddYears(1).ToString());
but this gave an error: The value '' of the ValueToCompare property of 'CompareValidator1' cannot be converted to type 'Date'.

View 5 RepliesI've been watching a video on Scott Hanselmnn teaching MVC 2 tricks/tips. He mentions how MVC 2 by default uses ASP.NET Web Forms view engine to render the output of the views; he mentions that the web forms view engine is a little slower than it could be for MVC 2 since it generates a control tree and then outputs the HTML to the page (I hope I said that right).
I was wondering what he meant by web forms generating a code tree before outputting the HTML to the page. Does anyone have insight on the view engine of Web forms and the steps of the rendering process works for ASP.NET and MVC2?
I am developing a software that uses number precision, but I have this problem, it happens that when I take a string to convert to double it outputs me with a different culture.
For example I use
Convert.ToDouble("4089.90"); // it outputs 40.899,00
Is strange cause in my computer it works OK but on the client's PC (with the same culture in regional settings) shows me the latter output. I know I can fix it using
Convert.ToDouble("4089.90", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
But there is a lot of code in the program using "Convert.ToDouble" and I wouldn't like to change all of it, on the other hand I want to understand why this happens.
Locally I have the cascading dropdown which loads countries in a cascading dropdown working.
But as soon as I place the code on the hosting server, Firebug shows me an:
500 Internal Server Error - [URL]
The cascading dropdown just shows "[Method error 500]"
REMEMBER: IT WORKS ON MY LOCAL SERVER!!!
local configuration:
Windows 7
IIS7.5
ASP.NET4
server configuration:
Windows Server 2008
IIS7.5
ASP.NET4
So it almost MUST be something on my hosting server! :s I dont know what to configure though...

We recently migrated a web app from one Prod server (Prod 1) to another server (Prod 2). There is a session varialbe checked inside the page load event of the default master page. I have enabled session state both in web.config as well inside the pagedirective. The compilation went through without any issue. The web app is also running just fine on the server but the log file keeps logging a warning message. There is no run time error.
"System.Web.HttpException: Session state can only be used when enableSessionState is set to true, either in a configuration file or in the Page directive. Please also make sure that System.Web.SessionStateModule or a custom session state module is included in the <configuration><system.web><httpModules> section in the application configuration."Any idea why this is happening on one server vs other?
