I have an asp.net 2.0 application that is suppose to pick the Identity of the currently logged in user on a client machine and use it to setup working environment for the user. On win xp and windows server 2003 this works fine. but on moving the application to Windows Server 2008 R2 .
View 1 RepliesI'm writing an ASP.net application and I'm working with the WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent() function. I want to know how (or if it's possible) to change what identity the ASP.net application runs as.
I eventually want to run it as an account associated with the end-user. I understand I can do this with Windows Authentication in IIS, but Windows Authentication will not work with my particular application. If I can programmatically log the user in with a AD username and password, that will be fine.
How can I set the WindowsIdentity the ASP.net application runs as without using Windows Authentication in IIS?
Update: This question has been sitting idle for a long time. I think that perhaps the framework does not allow me to do what I'm describing here.
I have a user that when I attempt to enumerate her groups using either System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Groups on user's computer
or System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.LogonUserIdentity.Groups on the IIS server, I get a list of their old groups, not their new. I have checked the DC that they authenticate to and the ASP.NET page is running inside a SharePoint instance so the LogonUserIdentity most like is being provided from there Kerberos ticket.
Should I be looking up the groups directly from the AD instead of relying on the WindowsIdentity or LogonUserIdentity?

This application is running in Windows 2000 server.Now we are planning to migrate Windows server 2000 to Windows 2008.Will this application run in Windows 2008 or do we need to upgrade this application to dotnet and Sql 2008?

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here in the web.config file? This is killing me.
I just downloaded and installled the Microsoft Windows Azure SDK yesterday for the first time and I am having issues running the application as I all I am getting is 503 errors. I run Windows Server 2008 R2 on my development machine and even tested it on another co-workers 2008 R2 and couldn't even compile the application. He got this error instead "A problem occurred while trying to set the "References" parameter for the IDE's in-process compiler. Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component."
From within my Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V Virtual Windows 7 x86 enviroment, I was able to successfully build and run the Windows Azure SDK and it even showed the base ASP.NET application.So my question is, does the Windows Azure SDK for Visual Studio 2010 w/ Visual Studio 2010 SP 1 installed not work under Microsoft Server 2008 R2?
I have looked at all the posts I can find on this problem and tried everything I can think of, but still the problem persists. I am getting really sick of it.was working fine for the last year until an update to MS Office 2007 caused a lot of problems (automatic update). After checking posts here, I removed it completely. No change. I then tried all the things I could find on other posts, also no change. Today, I removed VS and the Web Authoring Component and re-installed. Still no go.
Does anyone have a fix for this problem. It seems that it has been around a long time, but is still giving problems. I even saw one suggestion to reformat the drive! You've got to be joking!
I am looking at developing using Visual Studio 2010/2008 and SQL Server 2008 on Windows 7. Should I be able to do this on Windows 7 Professional, or do you need Windows 7 Ultimate?
View 2 Replieswhen I deploy a website in IIS Windows Server 2003 R2 . First time deploy, it seemed no problem at all (fyi, the one who deploy for the first time is not me, but my friend) but after one or two days this problem occur. I can't browse from IIS and Internet Explorer. In Internet Explorer the page display:
"Internet Explorer cannot display the website." The worse, no error log data ever produced in Application category in Event Viewer.
I've tried change the address from localhost to 127.0.0.1 but the response is still the same. I even tried access just localhost alone. It should display the default homepage from IIS but the response is still the same too. I've checked IIS' Web Service Extension, the Active Server Pages and ASP.NET 2.0 are set to allowed. I also have tried make a virtual directory with just index.html inside and the response is still the same.
FYI: The server seems run in 64 bit (HP Proliant server). The website I build only used ASP.NET Ajax 1.0 and Crystal Report for VS 2005. From the server, I can access the internet but not the localhost.
In the VS2008, everything works just fine. But after deploy app to the IIS7, tried to access SQL Server 2008 on the same PC, I got the following errors:
[SqlException (0x80131904): Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.]

I am using Integrated Windows authentication and Role based authorization.The web.config file has two Active Directory groups.Sample code of web.config file for Role based authorization (Actually I got this sample code from a moderator of this site Gary works well).
Code:
<location path="Bloodgroup.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="MedcenterGroup1"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
So user's who doesn't belog to "Group1" AD group, should get Unauthorized error. It works exactly like that. But, before getting unauthorized error, it shows a pop up screen (as shown in the attached picture) prompting to put userid and password. If a user in AD group "Group1" accesses "Blood group. aspx" page, popup message doesn't come which is correct. Following is the code in web.config file to handle errors:
Code:
The <customErrors> section enables configuration of what to do if/when an unhandled error occurs during the execution of a request. Specifically, it enables developers to configure html error pages to be displayed in place of a error stack trace. -->
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="GenericErrorPage.htm">
<error statusCode="401" redirect="Errors.aspx" />
<error statusCode="403" redirect="NoAccess.htm" />
<error statusCode="404" redirect="FileNotFound.htm" />
</customErrors>
Question 1: why does the popup box prompting user id and password comes up?
Question 2: I have put in web.config file in customErrors tag to direct to Errors.apsx page when I get 401.2, it should be redirected to Errors.aspx page. But it is not getting re-directed.
Does anyone know of any requirements to get the Ajax Control Toolkit (Calendar Extension in particular) working in this OS? I have it working on my local macjine (VS 2010 Development Server) but it doesn't work when published to my Virtual Server running Windows Server 2008 R2. No errors are reported, just nothing happens when I give focus to the Calendar textbox (no Calendar appears).Anyone know of any configutrations that need to be made in Windows Server 2008 R2?Is there a 32-bit/64-bit issue with the Toolkit?
View 8 RepliesI am working on the migration of the server. Our new server is Windows server 2008 with IIS7.0 I have a great difficulty in browsing the pages hosted in virtual directories. I have followed the proper steps of creating a virtual directories and converting them into applications. But when i try to browsing the pages of the virtual directory, i get the 404 error. Note: The .Net Framework 4.0 is installed on the server and the web applications which i am trying to configure in the virtual directories are developed in Visual Studio 3.0. Even the http://localhost also don't work.

View 2 RepliesCurrently I'm in the process of deploying my ASP.net MVC 2 project on a Windows Server 2008 R2 web server. This web server already has the .net 4 Framework installed, but doesn't have any MVC dll's in the GAC.
So deployment on IIS succeeds, but when I start up the web application in the browser, it results in this message:
Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Of course I can Google myself too and it mainly:
Copying the MVC dll's (System.Web.Mvc.dll, .Routing.dll, etc) to the output directory;
Downloading an RTM version of ASP.net MVC 2 on top of .net 3.5 Framework. Neither of them I'd like to do. I just want to install ASP.net MVC 2 to the GAC of my web server. So my question is:
Which installation does actually contain ASP.net MVC 2 for installation on top of .net 4?

I have IIS 7 windows server 2008 R2 64 bit on which I have few web sites which are sending emails thorugh asp.net. Each web site has seperate "From Address (used inside the code)".
In IIS 6.0 mananger >> Delivery Tab >> Out bound security >>I gave Integrated windows authentication for one account (Let us say abc).
When the emails are firing from different applications, the emails are going only if the from address is abc mentioned in the authentication. If any other email address is used then it is going to bad mail folder saying "Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 5.7.1 Client
does not have permissions to send as this sender".So to make it work I have changed the authentication to anonymous then again the emails are going to bad mail with "Diagnostic-Code: smtp;530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated" error.
I have an Ajax enabled web app created with Visual Studio 2005 - .Net framework 2.0. I publish this to a Windows 2003 server and everything works fine.
I now need to publish to a Windows 2008 server with IIS 7.0. Whereas before I used to publish to http:// .... (because the site on the 2003 server was Frontpage server extension enabled} I can't see how to do this in IIS 7.0 so I have published to a share on the server at \servernamewebsites ameofwebsite
When I try to run the site I get this:
Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
I've developed my .net web application in Visual Studio 2005. It's been running in production on a hosted server. We recently brought in-house our own servers and configured one as a web server. I am trying to set up my web application over there and am getting your typical errors like the resource cannot be found. If you could point me to a good link, that would be great, too. I know I am having very elementary problems like creating the correct virtual directory, etc.
View 9 RepliesI'm trying to get an asp.net application up on IIS on a Windows Server 2008 machine. I can hit the app from localhost, no problem. But I can't access the app using the server's domain name either locally or from another machine on the network.But here's the odd part. I can access a normal file on IIS using the domain name, both from a browser running on the server and from a browser running on another machine on the network. Here's a synopsis ("http" converted to "htp" below because I don't have enough points to have all these links in my message):
From IE on the server itself:
works htp://localhost/foo.htm
works htp://localhost/App
works htp://test.foo.com/foo.htm
dead htp://test.foo.com/App
From IE on another machine:
works htp://test.foo.com/foo.htm
dead htp://test.foo.com/App
I just got a new windows server 2008 dedicated server and I can't for the life of me get it to serve up web pages. It has every .NET framework installed on it has the web server role added with the ASP.NET feature checked. I made sure that ASP.NET 2 and 4 are allowed in the ISAPI extensions.
Not just aspx pages but even if I create a .html page, it still gives the 404 Not Found error. Also, I should note that it's the basic browser 404 page, it's not making it to the ASP.NET isapi handler. It gives the same 404 both remotely and locally so it's not a firewall or router issue.
not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question, but I have deployed my asp.net application onto windows server 2008 r2, I can get the website to half work, but some code in it that detects the current lan id CurrentUserIDtextBox.Text = Context.User.Identity.Namedoes not work. this then causes problems later in the application for searching active directoy. All that is returned is spaces. I suspect this is something to do with setting the Integrated Windows Authentication as checked. In IIS5 I had this checked with Annonymous Access unchecked. In IIS6 I cannot find where this is set. I found an authentication icon which has Annonymous Authentication as Enabled, ASP.NET Impersonation and Forms Authentication as Disabled.Should there be an option for Integrated Windows Authentication?
