Security :: Migrating An Old App To New II7 Server
Aug 12, 2010
I know very little, and even less about .dll's. I have a fairly simple albeit old, application that references a .dll that seems to do the logic for connecting to an access backend. I don't have the source code for the dll, but I don't see any code anywhere elese to sigify the dataconnections etc. When I move the application from an old IIS6 server .net 1.0, over to a newer IIS7 server with .net 2.0osmething, I errors out (see below). When I remove the reference to the dll, the login pages comes up okay but I just can't login. So, something is up with my DLL. What do I need to do?
Error Information: Description: The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the required permission contact your system administrator or change the application's trust level in the configuration file.

I have an existing ASPNET role/membership database created on SQLExpress 2005 (WIndows 2003 Server). I created it under the .NET 3 framework many years ago using the aspnet_regsql.exe application in full GUI mode.
I am setting up a new Windows 2008R2 server with .Net Framework 4 and SQL Server 2008R2. I don't want users to have to recreate accounts or create roles, etc.
So...
1. Should I backup the current database and import it into the new system, and if so do I even need to use the aspnet_regsql.exe application. (If so which version do I use, different aspnet_regsql.exe files exist in different directories (i.e., FrameWork, FrameWork64)
2. Should I just run aspnet_regsql.exe on its own and then somehow try to import the current data into those tables.
I am concerned that if I just import somehow the roles within SQL server will not be created properly.
I have an old website running fine in Classic ASP with large customer base registered onto the site. The current site allows users to have their own user name(unique) registered against an ID assigned to them. They can change the User name later as well provided it is still Unique in the database(Database is SQLServer2005).
The Problem: Now i want to move the website to .NET and want to use the .NET Membership. I know how to create the database structure in SQL Server through aspnet_regsql script but my problem is how should i import the existing username and passwords as the password stored in MembershipDB is Hashed (salt). Also i might want to allow admins to impersonate as users later.
We have just migrated our application from VS 2008 to VS 2010 and our database from Sql server 2005 to 2008. Everything was working great until i tried to login to the site.
As when i try to log into the site, i am surprisingly always getting "FALSE" from Membership.Validateuser (). I goggled it and now i know i am not the alone victim of this irritating bug. Our live site is going to be down...
New functional requirements stipulate that what was once a one to many relationship is now a many to many relationship. The relationship comprises a simple lookup table
How does one manage the migration of data from the old structure to the new???
I have the following script which will move the data from/to the right tables:
[Code]....
What i'm wondering is, once i have run the script to copy the data across, do people recommend that the LegacyTable.LookUpPK_ID field be deleted permanently?
For that, I made my own users and passwords tables and hashed the passwords myself. Now, I would much rather move to Microsoft's built in membership provider with asp.net in sql server. Does anybody know a good way to migrate over?
The only real idea I've had so far is to make both systems run simultaneously, then when a user logs in, validate them in my old system, then ask them to re-enter their password and save their new stuff in the microsoft's system... then clear the record out of my old system. Eventually, I would hope that would move everybody into the new system. But that seems annoying and messy. Is there some better way?
I am considering moving my personal website across from one hosting to another the new hosting will use a SQL Server 2008 Express DB. Is there any easy way of moving the information from MySQL to SQL Server 2008 Express DB.
We are running asp.net website on windows server 2003 with framework 2.0 and asp.net ajax 1.0 extensions. now we planned to migrate websites to windows server 2008 r2. since my websites on framwork 2.0, I need to install same framework on windows server 2008 r2 but I didnt find 2.0 version for windows server 2008 r2. Is it possible to install 2.0 version on windows server 2008 r2 ??
I had been trying to solve this but there is a hidden key i wish someone point me to.
I had a simple membership database with users in first the Membership Provider configured for clear password to retrieve the original password .
Now a new requirement say that the password must be hashed and reset .
I configure the Membership password to hash , and Implemented the Reset Password Module.
My problem is as follow.
If the user is new registered user with the new configuration the password and the security answer is hashed.
also when I go and reset the password it continue to be hashed.
Now I thought that with new configuration if any previous user with clear text configuration , If he use the password Reset module , because my configuration now is hashed , I expected that the new password and security answer will be hashed . what happen is old user continue in clear text even if the configuration is hashed. so If I had new users everything is fine.
old users Membership Provider somehow know they had been stored in clear text and it keep change password and security answer in clear text . If I delete this user and create it , Membership Provider understand that everything will be hashed. I need to know how it know this , I need to migrate users not to delete and recreate users .
Also if there are no solution for that , I wish Microsoft Consider it in future cause it is a real user scenario, that can happen imagine a business system that related to membership user Id , deleting users and recreate them is not a solution .
I'm getting close to finishing a public-facing ASP.Net app and I'm starting to weigh deployment options. I'm an ASP.Net/SQLServer veteran but noob when it comes to Azure. I'm wondering how others have felt about the learning curve to effectively migrate a local dev ASP.Net/SQLServer apps into Azure cloud. More specifically:How steep is the learning curve towards understanding administration and programming concepts, and do you think it's worth the investment?What is Microsoft's support like if I have catastrophic problems from my cloud infrastructure and my live site is down? My expectation is a large price tag for a not-so-urgent SLA.Will my non-Azure ASP.Net app require significant modification and/or coupling to run in the Azure environment?
We already have our vb.net project in asp.net1.1 framework now we are changing the framework to asp.net4.0.But we are facing more warnings like unused local variables and function need return statement.it exceeding maximum warnings because of these kind of issues.Is there any tool to remove unused local variables.
I have upgraded my web site from 2.0 to 3.5 using VS2008 (loaded the project and selected 'yes' to the upgrade prompt), then deployed to the Live server. On the test system the website runs fine, on the Live, it fails with 'Assembly binding' (System.Core, System.Web.Extensions, and more) errors. When I commented out all the failed assemblies (just to see what happens) I got the error: 'csc.exe' cannot be found. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? 1. Is my upgrade method wrong? 2. Is there another way to upgrade? 3. How can I tell why the assemblies fail to bind?
After migrating my app to .NET 4 it's not starting. When i'm trying to load it in browser it endlessly loading it and nothing else happening. There is no errors or timeouts, just loading.
some automated tools to help in migrating classic ASP to ASP.NET I tried to install "ASP to ASP.NET 1.x Migration Assistant" from the link below but it encountered a problem during installation. Has anyone used it? Any other better tools? I know everything cannot be automated but I would imagine there are some tools out there. [URL]
We are in design phase of a project whose goal is replatforming an ASP classic application to ASP.Net 4.0. The system needs to be entirely web based. There are several new requirements for the new system that make this a challenging project:
The system needs to be database independent. It must, at version 1.0, support MS SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, Postgres and DB2. The system must be able to allow easy reporting from the database by third party reporting packages. The system must allow an administrative end user to create their own tables in the database through the web based interface. The system must allow an administrative end user to design/configure a user interface (web based) where they can select tables and fields in the system (either our system's core tables or their own custom tables created in #3) The system must allow an administrative end user to create and maintain relationships between these custom created tables, and also between these tables and our system's core tables. The system must allow an administrative end user to create business rules that will enforce validation, show/hide UI elements, block certain actions based on the identity of specific users, specific user groups or privileges.
Essentially it's a system that has some core ticket tracking functionality, but allows the end user to extend the interface, business rules and the database. Is this possible to build in a .Net, Web based environment? If so, what do you think the level of effort would be to get this done? We are currently a 6 person shop, with 2.5 full time developers.
I am tryin to rebuild a website designed in asp.net.But,being an informative site it has a lot of content in it which i dnt want to input to the database manually.can ne1 help me out with any drupal module to migrate the asp.net data in sql server to mysql db in form of drupal architecture??say for example a page in asp.net is displaying data from a form.Can i migrate it in form of cck and get the page data as nodes table.
we are currently investigating a migration of an application that doesn't meet company standards. The application is built using VB6 and Shape SQL/Access. The application has about 120 reports by storing Shape SQL strings in a database which the user can modify using a wizard. Shape sql is not allowed at this company. We have investigated plain SQL, Linq, Entity Framework as alternatives... but all result in more complex solutions.
Update: Shape SQL is an ADO command to get hierarchical datasets, for further info:
Recently I moved my developing environment (Visual Studio 2005) on Windows 7. I followed the steps for migrating from IIS6 to IIS7, but when I try to start debug my web project I receive the error message:
"Unable to start debugging on web server. Debugging failed because integrated Windows authentication is not enabled."
