How is the best way of putting a lookup table in memory for use though my ASP.NET app? Should I do this in the Global.asax's Application_Start event and keep in Session?
View 6 RepliesI have a problem regarding the SessionState Collection.I retrieve an object
[Code]....
I thought that i access a reference type. But calling the default constructor to build a new object seems not to work.The next time I access the object I still get the old one.
I am using ASP.NET 2.0.
In my applicaion, I store some values in an ArrayList and store this Arraylist in a session variable. I want to know the size of this session variable in memory. Is there any method to do this.
I have a DataTable which holds information on truck routes. When the user click on a route it display another table with details about the stop along that route. When they click a stop it shows what items were picked up at that stop. Three separate pages with 3 distinct DataTables. Currently I am storing them in the session. Normally, I would use the view state since the data only needs to live on that page. The reason I use the session is because each page is part of a Master pagelayout. There is an export button in the master page which gets the data in the session and exports it to an excel file. The issue is that when the user goes to the item level detail and uses a quick navigation link back to the route information the data for route is not reloaded into the session, just the page. If the user clicks export it will export the data set from the item level detail even though it is not displayed on the page
View 4 RepliesI have a webpage which displays some data along with a banner. The banner image is stored in the database with parameters "Pagename" and "form".
The application has been coded in such a way that when the page loads , a function checks for the banner in cache memory first with the parameters "pagename" and "form". It the banner does not exist, the new banner is retrieved from the database and is added to the cache memory. Next time when the same page is called, the banner is displayed from the cache memory avoiding the DB to be hit everything to get the banner.
Now, I do not want a specific banner to be displayed on the page. I have removed that banner from the DB but the banner still gets displayed as this banner is still there in the cache memory.
Is there any way to delete the banner which exists in cache memory without making any code changes?
Input: - 3 excel files storing them into global temporary tables after reading cell by cell.
Requirement is to process inputs files and generate a single excel report.
After report gets exported, data in tables in should be deleted (i am using global temp tables for this).
But the problem is, two users are unable to generate report simultaneously.
Is this problem with global temporary tables?
I'm trying to write a Javascript Zip Code lookup utility.
1) The User will select a State from a drop down.
2) The City Drown Down will then be populated based on the State selected
3) A textbox below is then populated with the corresponding Zip Code(s) based on Selected State and Zip Code on an ASP.NET page.
Problem: I get the error Request() is not defined which causes the application to hault when a State is selected.
What should I cahnge in the following code?
<script language="javascript">
var request = new Request();
var url = "";
function getZipCode()
{
request.GetNoCache(url + "getZipCode.aspx?City=" +document.getElementById("drpCity").options[document.getElementById("drpCity").selectedIndex].value+ "&State=" +document.getElementById("drpStateSearch").options[document.getElementById("drpStateSearch").selectedIndex].value,
function(result)........
I used to work in the IT field, but because of an accident and meds I have lost a bunch of my memory. So, I'm in need of relational database help..I've got a web site I want to put up that will sell books. I'll be using SQL server 2008. I'll be using Pay Pal's Cart, etc, so I just have to put up some buttons on the web site, but I need to track, display, etc, the books and properties about the books such as Authors, Paper back or hard cover, first edition, or something else, etc,..I have a table for books obviously, but I'm wondering if I should break out the Authors out of that table? I mean I don't see why except that if I end up with some books that have the same author then there names will be stored more than once, but I will be doing a lot more queries than inserts. I've got Customers, Book Types which is if the book is a hard cover, softcover, first edition, etc,. I will relate the Books to the Book Types of course, but again, should I have an authors table? Hope this makes sense.. I am using Visual Studio 2008 Pro, and want to do my relations there, so I thought I'd do so in the IDE if possible? I can't remember, but I thought it was possible?
View 6 Replieswhen we go for client and server side state management in asp.net
View 2 RepliesI am doing a POC of making my website run faster. Currently it stores huge object data in Session while passing information from one page to another. What I was thinking is to use shared methods and properties instead of session. It works, but wanted tocheck if this is an optimum way to do it. Below is the code that does not use session but still pass object data from one page to another:

i have a form on page1.aspx with several controls (textbox, dropdownlist, etc).on Page1 PageLoad event i load data from database and performe databinding.From Page1 a user can, by clicking a specific button, move to Page2.aspx to insert some details and, after saving details, he returns to page1.
if save changes are made on control on page1 before save them to db, obviously, these are lost on return from page2 (because are reloaded on pageload from db).How can i save control status between pages round trip?

Requirements: Create a Web Page in ASPx that will do the following:
1)One label will provide a count of how many times Button 1 has been clicked in the current session.
2)One label will provide a count of how many times Button 1 has been clicked by all users of the application. The Application Code for the Button should start at 100 (set this in the Global.asax file). this is what i have so far but i cant seem to get the application state to work properly.

Customer were getting "View State Validation Error" due to worker process recycling at our production webserver and to fix that i applied machinekey and then move my Session state Mode from In Proc to State Server to retain session data and not kick out the customer to relogin. I had serialization issue with one object which has to be stored in session but when i moved it out of session i could able to resolve the issue.
But doing all these i was partly successfull in keeping the user in their session when Worker Process recycle event occurs.I was able to refresh the page or make a post back by clicking the refresh button and also able to retain the session values. But the Problem occurs when sending asynchronous request to server which we do periodically every 15 minutes from the moment the user logs in.The web page doesnot update data on website when sending asynchronous request.By Debugging I found at this particular code point it fails to make a postback which is required.
<%=GetHintFromServer%> (When there is no Worker Process recycle i t gets replaced by
WebForm_DoCallback('__Page',message,ShowHint,null,null,false) on postback) Everything works fine when there is no Worker Process Recyling but when it happens looks like sending request asynchronously using javascript fails .Remember When I make a post back by manually clicking submit button everything works fine.
SendRequest(Asynchronous)
function SendRequest(msg, isBusy, chartMsg, vesselMsg)
{
try
{
//confirm("msg"+msg+"isBusy"+isBusy+"chartMsg"+chartMsg+"VesselMsg"+vesselMsg);
_busy = isBusy;
if(chartMsg != null)
{
//confirm("chartMsg"+chartMsg);
_element.SetMessage(true, chartMsg);
}
if(vesselMsg != null)
{
confirm("chartMsg"+vesselMsg);
_element.ShowVesselLoading(true, vesselMsg);
}
_stuckWatchdog = setTimeout( "ClearPendingRequest();", 60000);
var message = msg;
var context = '';
<%=GetHintFromServer%>
}
catch(e)
{
alert( "Exception error on SendRequest(): " + e);
}

Let me explain, describing the scenario:In a custom server control (in my case, derived from CompositeControl), in the overidden CreateChildControls method I create a complex tree of subcontrols, using information from a db.The db provides both information on which controls I need to create (the user interface's structure) and the data used to fill these controls.Than the user can interact with the control and change the data (that becomes different to what stored on db).
My custom control lives in the same page where there are other controls, obviously.And these controls can cause a postback at any time.What I need is that my custom control keeps the data entered by the user across these postback, without reverting to the original data and loose the user data entry.
Here is the first doubt:
1)I create the subcontrols dinamically in the CreateChildControls at any page refresh (both on first call than on postback).I know that the framework solves the reference between the posted data and the controls I create in the CreateChildControls in order to set properties and raise control events, but can you tell me when and how it actually does this? In which phase of page life cycle? What happens after the CreateChildControls?
A second doubt:2)If the user interface structure must change as a consequence of the data entered, I had to execute CreateChildControls twice (the first time to recreate the original interface to get the events and the second time to create the new interface)
In which phase of page/control lifecycle do I have to make the second call to CreateChildControls? I do it on Prerender now, but is it right or wrong, and why?
I am new to .net 4.0 and am using EF Model and SessionState Mode=SqlServer and I am getting this error below:
Unable to serialize the session state. In 'StateServer' and 'SQLServer' mode, ASP.NET will serialize the session state objects, and as a result non-serializable objects or MarshalByRef objects are not permitted. The same restriction applies if similar serialization is done by the custom session state store in 'Custom' mode.
I checked the stack trace and its complaining about
[assembly: global::System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EdmSchemaAttribute()]
[assembly: global::System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EdmRelationshipAttribute("PoplarGroveModel", "tblMenuRole", "tblMenu", global::System.Data.Metadata.Edm.RelationshipMultiplicity.Many, typeof(PoplarGroveDataModel.Menu), "tblRole",
[Code].....
I marked it as serializable but then it complains about System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext is not marked as serializable and hence throws the same error.
I am having a ASP.net application it having three pages ,page 1,page 2,page 3,when the user navigating between this pages I want to maintain the view state in page level after postbacks(i.e.) .If a user visits page 3, passing some query loads some data .then he moves to page 1 doing some entries .after that he once again moves to page 3 now I want to display the data previously available at the time he moves to page 1, same
way I want to do to my three pages up to the user logging out.
Our ASP.NET App uses ASP State Session Management and has been rebuilt about 2 years ago [With .NET Framework 2.0]. We are currently in .NET framework 3.5 and have moved to SQL Server 2008 - but continue to use the same ASPState database. The State database has been upgraded to SQL Server 2008. Since then we have are seeing timouts/locks on ASPStateTempSessions table. I am wondering if we have to rebuild this database from scratch with some newer scripts?
View 2 RepliesI'm using the following line of code to display the number of users currently logged on:
lblNoOfUsers.Text = Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline().ToString()
I'm still debugging my application so it's on the local server. As I debug and stop then debug again, eventually lblNoOfUsers.text turns to "0" instead of "1", even as I'm navigating my application. It only turns to "1" again if I log out and sign back in. It's almost as though Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline my login are referencing two different session states. How is this possible? Does asp.net create a new session state cookie each time I start debugging?
I am trying to set a session variable in the global.asax file and keep running into the problem that the Session is null.
I am running my application in VS2008 and using asp.net 3.51.
Here is my code:
1. In my web.config file I have enabled the session state and added the following line;
<sessionState
cookieless="false"
mode="InProc"
timeout="60"
></sessionState>
2. In the Session_Start procedure in the Global.asax file I set the session variable to a default value.
[Code]....
My problem seems to be that when the Application_Error procedure is executed the session state is lost.
Does anyone know why the session state isn't available in the Global.asax file.
All we have a global ships position tracking website which runs smoothly until IIS application pool recycles.When there is workerprocess recycling looks like session state expires as a result i loose all session data and when customer clicks refresh button he is redirected to login page.
In web.config Session state mode is set to InProc so i changed it to State Server but to my luck i have MAP object which is not serialiazable which is causing the maps from not appearing on the website.I tried adding serializable attribute to the object class but still not succesfull.Our website is accessed by our customers whose count is more than 1000.
Changing the session state mode from InProc to StateServer can really slow down the response time so
Is it good to go further fix the serailizable issues and move to state server?.
Is there any way I can retain my session data when application pool recyles?..
Stopping Application pool from recycling may not be a good idea considering health factor of web server.

I have a clear button and a textbox in an aspx page. I set the session variable in this page as
String str = Textbox1.Text;
Session["TypeIds"] = str;
and I clear the sessions in a clear button event as
Session["TypeIds"]=null;.
Then when the user types some value in the textbox ,on Response.Redirect on another aspx page, the session variable returns null values.It does not retain its session state. The session state has to be maintained in the next page. Is it because this clear button event and setting explicitly to null creates this problem?
