Using A Single Database (or Copied) For Hosted Site And Desktop App
Jul 4, 2010
I've built an online scheduling system for a local company so that they can have a calendar with the scheduled jobs for the day and so that the customers can check on the progress of the work being done for them. Allowing the customer to check for themselves would cut their phone call volume down to about 30% of what it is now leaving more time to complete jobs. Everything is fine but I'm concerned about instances when either the server has issues or the business' internet is down. I was considering making it a desktop application but then it wouldn't have the online abilities of allowing the customers to check on the job's progress.
So, basically, as it stands now, if there is problems with the internet connection, either at the business or at the host, the business loses their daily scheduler and if I make it a desktop app the customer has to call to check on the progress. Unless I can make the local database copy any transaction made on the desktop app to the database on the server. How would I go about doing something like that? Would this be a good reason to use a web service (something I've never done)?

I am trying to publish a sugarcrm site I created in webmatrix to my site hosted on godaddy, however when i go into the publish settings and enter the server info, passwords etc., I can only get the connection to validate for the FTP protocol setting. When i click the button to test and validate the connection for webdeploy instead of ftp, it tries then says connection timed out. How do I get this to work so that I can publish my site on godaddy?

Is there a way to use the ASP.NET Configuration to configure a site once it is hosted? Or can I manually enter data into the tables it creates? Anybody have any useful links on this?

I have just used the Import and Export Wizard to copy my production SQL Server database, which uses Membership and Roles. I used the option to copy all the data from existing tables and views and did not modify the mapping in any way. Things do not seem to have gone well.....
My source database has a bunch of views with names like vw_aspnet_Applications,vw_aspnet_MembershipUsers, etc. The copy database has these listed as tables!I wondered if running aspnet_regsql.exe might fix things. I needed to run this anyway to create all the missing stored procedures for Membership, etc. However, it failed with the error:Setup failed.Exception:An error occurred during the execution of the SQL file 'InstallCommon.sql'. The SQL error number is 2714 and the SqlException message is: There is already an object named 'vw_aspnet_Applications' in the database.Creating the vw_aspnet_Applications view...I am a bit lost. All I want to do is to create a total clone of my production database for test purposes. Where do I go from here?

Is there anyway you can get search results powered by bing, without using bing box as it just launches results in a javascript applet, I mean fully hosted on site like on here or microsoft's site? I understand a full sitemap will be needed although that easy enough using webmaster tools. I think that all the detail I need to provide, as I dont want too use Google custom search as I have to display ads and crap via adsense.

I am trying to develop a internal corporate portal that will be hosted external either on company leased decicated server or by hosting service like godaddy. The company portal is going to have links internal and external resources like Outlook Web Access and Sharepoint, Great Plains, our CRM software, etc, etc. I am basically creating intranet site for the company but the intranet is going to be hosted externally.
How do I authenticate user against the Active Directory, when the intranet site is hosted remotely?

I have a site (URL...) which loads and runs fine locally on the server itself, but when I try to access this externally from outside of the server (and firewall) will not load. In Safari for example, I get the message "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding".I have other sites on this server that do load and operate fine so I don't belive this is a Firewall issue. One thing I did notice however is that when the error message appears, it seems like the site is trying to change the protocol from http to https.
I'm trying to debug this to find out what could be happening. I've tried looking into the IIS logs as well as the Event Viewer but I see nothing. I have even tried to turn on Failed Request Tracking but no errors are logged.

I have a hosted site and just added some additional error notification to my global.asax file and works like a charm. I decided to add the same logic to our test server and it doesnt work. The server.transfer never happens and the email never gets updated. Now i know the email works on the test and production server since we have other pages that use the same SMTP server name and setup as i have in the global file. Below is my code as it is in the file now. I setup a test page to cause an error and the page displays the detailed error which we dont want. But i would like to be notified if this happens. What am i missing? I can only assume that its a IIS confige issue, since the exact same code works on a hosted site, but not at work on our test or production servers. Here is the code i have in the global.asax

How can I test an application that I am publishing to a remote provider's IIS7 hosted site, with the VS2008 development server that is built in with VS2008 on an XP Machine?
My membership/roles work perfectly up on the remote host. On ths hosted IIS7 site when I try to access a secure directory it redirects to login, and I am able to login, however when I launch (debug - F5) from VS2008, it will provide that folder/resource, no questions asked. Same build, config, etc... nothing has changed.
I am running XP, and local IIS version installed is 5.1.
My guess is what is happening is that the new format required in the web.config is configured properly for IIS7 deployment, which is why it works remotely, but when running locally through VS2008/XP it is running with an older version on IIS and does not recoginize the new tags.

I'm going to develop a desktop tool that will require a database.
How would I go about doing it in a way that will allow me to post the code to a website so that all of the desktop applications see a new version and download the database.

I am trying to develop a web application(Using ASP.NET and c#) that uses a specific database hosted on web server. I will have another desktop application that will use a local database. Both databases have same structure and data at start up. Then databases will change when users add data to web application and an employee adds data to the desktop application. After a while I have to sync both databases.
What will be best way to do this? Is there any opensource example/ starter kit to start with?

I have an ASP.Net site using Forms authentication. One of the aspx pages loads a WinForms user control hosted in IE. That control must connect with a WCF service located in the same ASP.Net web site.How can I make the WCF service secure? Currently I have set the WCF service to use AspNetCompatibilityRequirements mode but the user control hosted in IE can't connect to the WCF service as it isn't logged in.

I maintain a college website. I also create various small web apps for the college (staff directory, online credit schedules, etc.). Currently, I have been using VS2010 and clicked on File - New Web Site - ASP.NET Empty Web Site for the main college website and File - New Web Site - ASP.NET Dynamic Data Entities Web Site for each of my apps.
Each is in its own separate directory in my development environment. The main site is "published" via VS2010's Copy Web Site tool in the Solution Explorer. The individual web apps are copied into unique physical directories on the Web server, and then via IIS7 Manager, a virtual directory is created on the college's web site for each app.
I have now run into a situation where I would like to create a new web app that utilizes some of the images and master pages from the college's web site. How do I create a New Web Site in VS2010 that can see/recognize/access the files from another web site? Namely, the college's main web site.
