View 10 RepliesI have a login control that is working beautifully on my localhost, but not working on the server. It validates my username & password - and gives me an error if I enter an invalid username/password. However, if I enter the correct username/password, the page refreshes, but does not redirect me to the "ReturnUrl" that I see in the URL. I've seen posts on this, but nothing that I tried worked. I've tried setting the 'MembershipProvider'attribute of the login control. I don't want to set the DestinationUrl...I want it to take what is in the ReturnUrl in the querystring. I don't think it's a web.config issue cuz it works on localhost??

View 8 RepliesI made a simple WCF web-service inside an ASP.net website.
The web-service is hosted by IIS and works fine on localhost, ie when accessing for exemple to
[URL] I get the correct "Hello World" response as expected.
But accessing to it by my computer hostname [URL] gets me an error 404 response. This is particularly confusing as the remaining of the site (mainly aspx pages) is accessible without any problem from both ways.

i have a couple of xml files in my asp.net web application that i don't want anyone to access other than my server side code. this is what i tried..
<add verb="*" path="*.xml" type="System.Web.HttpForbiddenHandler" />
i wrote this inside the <httpHandlers>
it works well on the localhost but not in the server... the server without any hesitation displays the xml file... i have no idea how to proceed...
Update: the server has IIS6, windows server 2003
I have encountered this problem before on a few shared hosts but cant remember the fix.

I am using Mysql Connector/Net to store asp session state.
The mysql db is on the hosting server ( I have no mysql locally).
Opening a page locally creates a session in the db.
Opening a page on the host does not.

The title says it all. After a lot of problems with a simple app we use at my workplace, I decided to redo the app again for .NET4 and add some refactoring.

I'm trying to write a method which will send an email to client which has a download link that the user can click on to download directly.
Actually I'm emulating it as a continuously running process in Global which keep sending a file to a ftp server, if there is an error with the sending, a link will be sent to admin so that he can download the file directly.
My question is how can I get the external link, for example I would like to have http://www.abc.com/temp/file.txt. I want a generic solution so that whatever the domain I change my server too, the code still work?
I had a really weird experience today when doing a demo of some things i had been working on.
All my development work has been on a local IIS server, using
http://localhost.
The demo was running, pointing to http://mysystemname/ - and the weirdest thing happened. IE began to ignore the CSS... I am now back on my machine and if I switch from "localhost" to "mysystemname" i can reproduce it.
The really strange thing is that the CSS is getting pulled down from what i can tell. Using the developer tools, for example, I can see that a particular dropdown should be styled with a gray border (#bbb 1px solid) and a 2px padding. Looks great on localhost. No styling on "mysystemname".
Also some other divs on the page are missing their margins and thus are all crunched together, though the developer tools report that they should have a 2px margin-bottom.
these are not in a user control... they're all on a WebForms page with no wacky path names for the css.
I'm developing an intranet site for a client on my development system. I'm using windows authentication and I understand I should not be challenged to logon when I open the Intranet Site. However I am. I was speaking to a tech from microsoft, and he said it was because the url I'm using goes out to the internet.
http://localhost/IntranetSiteName/Default.aspx
How should I change the URL so it opens the IntranetSite on my local pc?
I am using Visual Studio 2010, Windows 7 and IIS. I have written a small WebApplication and I want to publish the WebApplication in the localhost. So I click on the project in Visual Studio => Publish => choose File Sytem => Local IIS. After that, I get an error:
To access local IIS Web sites, you must install the following IIS
components:
IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility ASP.NET
In addition, you must run Visual Studio in the context of an administrator account. For more information, Press F1.
This topic is new for me, so I am a beginner. What exactly must I do to solve this error?

View 1 RepliesIm trying to follow the directions within this page to configure my smtp server, I have windows 7 and iis 7.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itproinstall/thread/f73a7f0f-a17c-4a48-a42c-8da8e36f6cc6/
Im having issues with the code behind:
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient SmtpMail = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient();
////////////////Below 4 lines are for testing in windows 7. Comment them before compiling for production.//////////////
////////////////Host and DeliveryMethod are set for SMTP4Dev.exe to receive the mail//////////////
SmtpMail.DeliveryMethod = System.Net.Mail.SmtpDeliveryMethod.SpecifiedPickupDirectory;
SmtpMail.PickupDirectoryLocation
= "C:\inetpub\mailroot\Pickup";
SmtpMail.Host = "127.0.0.1"; // localhost
SmtpMail.DeliveryMethod = System.Net.Mail.SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
Is this suppose to be in the code behind page of the password recovery page? or in a separate class? When pasting in the code behind I get an error under the word system and smtpmail? Do I need to include an imports statement: imports system.net.mail?

How can you tell the difference between a request going to 127.0.0.1 and localhost.
This line of code on Windows 7 and VS2010 built-in web server can not tell the difference.
if (Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_NAME"].ToLower() == "localhost")
{
}
try hitting your own built-in web server with:
http://127.0.0.1/
and then
http://localhost/
i a developing a site for my project work.. i wanted to know that can the site hosted on localhost be viewed remotely over internet.
like by giving my current ip address in the place of
"local host/website1/default.aspx.."
on my dev machine (windows 7 with II7) I run a asp.net 4 web site. The web site run under the Visual Studio ASP.NET development server.
The problem is that I have a page that should load images from an external server. To test this behaviour I have created a virtual directory under IIS and I try to connect to the image with the following link:
http://localhost/ExtJPG/20080723112946001.jpg
I tested the link from a browser and It worked well, but I'm not able to load the image from my asp.net application. The page begin to load for a very long time and finally shows the classic red cross. if I right click and select show image the image display well.
