VS 2010 - Web Service To Write To Windows Application Log
Nov 29, 2012
I am writing a web service for a customer. I tested it locally fine using a consumer, but he is having an issue calling it from his jquery, so he asked for logging.I figured I would use the Windows Event Log for this purpose. after I added the event log and was testing it locally via the consumer, I had an error saying The source was not found, but some or all event logs could not be searched. Inaccessible logs: Security. So what I did to solve that was restart Visual Studio with administrator privelege so the event logs could be searched. And I am writing to my event log locally with no other issues.
My question is, when my customer intalls this new version of my web service, will it be able/unable to search the logs and if unable, how can it be given admin privelege so it is able, or again is that a bad idea?
In my windows service application (c#), I am checking if an event log exists then write to that event log, otherwise create new event log and write to it. But it always writes to the generic "Application" event log. Do I need to change some settings?
I create web service for Reading and writing the registry. It works fine in win-xp. But its not working when I published it in win-2008 server. It shows me http 500 error.
I have a deadline to install my windows service NOW. I developed it in VS2010 and chose the .NET 4.0 framework. The server where I am installing it, which is a server that hosts our live web sites, does not have .NET 4.0 installed. So I have to change the framework to 3.5. I have this error now when I try to build:
Error13Type System.Drawing.Point, System.Drawing, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a in the data at line 120, position 4 cannot be located. Line 122, position
5.C:DevprojectsDocFtpToVendorDocumentFtpProjectInstaller.resx1225DocumentFtpIt is in ProjectInstaller.resx and also Service1.resx. Is it because the version=4.0.0.0, and if so how do I change that? And if not, what is the cause?
Now I want to create several filesystemwatchers in my Windows Service and have them monitor different folders but do basically the same thing when files are created. That is, they will be calling the same routines. So my code so far is this:
Code: // 10/14 - Create N fsw's as specified in the config file. int nbrFsw = Convert.ToInt32(ConfigSettings.ReadSetting("NumberOfWatchers")); List<FileSystemWatcher> listOfFsw = new List<FileSystemWatcher>(); for (int i = 0; i < nbrFsw; ++i) { FileSystemWatcher fsw = new FileSystemWatcher();
[Code] ....
Is there a potential problem that all fsw's that get created are calling the same "on created" event handler? Or will this work nicely?
My requirement is this. I need to watch Output folders and when pdf files are created here I upload the files to a server. These Output folders are in web app deployments. I need to do this function for more than one deployment on the same machine, thus my need for more than one fsw.
This will ultimately be a web service but I am trying this out in a windows program, hence the presence of lblMessages which is on a windows form...
I have some common dlls that are referenced by both a windows service application and a asp.net web application. I don't want to make separate copies of the dlls and I also don't want to put those dlls into GAC. I try to put that service application under the same root folder as the web application so that they can share the same bin folder. I am not quite sure if this will cause any problems? I did find the web application had random session timeout, but not very often. Not sure if it was caused by the shared dlls.
I wanna embed the windows service in the web application. I have seen few posts in the web. where they generate separate exe for the windows service and use it as an installable.
The same process i tried doing it but it threw an OS error in my server which is windows 2000 and didnt supported the executable.
However the website of mine runs fine in the same server. Thus i was thinking if i cd embed the same code in the web application.
Also, in my case the website of mine takes job for simulation. These jobs are taken for simulation execution and nearly takes 12hrs for completion and if they are not completed within twelve hours then they are supplied extra twelve hours to complete the simulation jobs.
The simulation executables are a series of executable and bat files.
The results of the simulation gets updated in the tables of MySql and hence are displayed to the user.
I want to create a popup application that will run against my sql database and Fire a popup everymorning at the user machine to ask a question. the response will be send back to the Database. Prety easy with Windows service BUT not with a POpup or Interface.
I had another thread on this problem but I wanted to start this one so no one had to look at the code I posted in the other thread. I have a successful connection but want to display data from the SQL database on my website in my Windows form application. Here's the code I have so far. Used some of the ADONET Tutorial1 here. The table Ray Rover Activation has a number of different columns but to start out I just wanted to see if I could display data for the EmailAddress column.
Code:
[code]....
If I comment out the Sub DoStuff I don't get any errors but neither is anything displayed other than the messagebox message. If I don't comment out DoStuff then I get an error, "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'FROM'". Maybe someone could enlighten me some on what I need to do get the data in the column EmailAddress to display.
I have a visual studion 2010 solution with two projects
1 . A class libarary
[Code]....
2. A windows service application
[Code]....
The service application is used to convert .dbf files to xml. The convertion is done using the classlibary project wich is called by the windows service application. This class library project has some values hard coded. like the path to look for the .dbf file
I want to make these hard coded values changable. like moving them to an app.config file. To which project I have to add the app.config file (classlibary or windows service)? How can I use the value from configuration file in classlibrary ?
I am currently working in a project where it is having multiple asp.net web applications, windows services. Now we have a requirement that I need to create an Setup application should do the following tasks automatically create database, install web applications in IIS virtual directories, install windows services and modify all configuration files do necessary checks before starting deployment. Which tool preferably open source / freeware help me in developing above setup/deployment application?
I have an existing windows .net application that has an access database as the backend.
I want to place the access database on a web server and it was suggested that I create a web service in order to communicate with the database.
I've been looking at some tutorials but am still confused about the basic config needed. Here's some questions I have:
1) Does the web service need to be created inside my current project by right clicking on the solution and choosing to add a new web site...and then selecting web service?
2) If it's set up like this, what files do I place onto the web server?
3) Where does the database reside? Do I need to place the database inside the web server that I create?
4) My current project has existing sql that gets data and I'm uncertain how to re-write in order to retreive the data. e.g. which part goes into the client and which part goes to web service pages? here's an example of a procedure that currently exists...I'm getting data to populate a dropdown:
I want to execute my asp.net application where Windows XP Service Pack 3 is installed + VS 4.0 framework is installed and IIS 5.1 is installed. The program is not running yet. It shows me an erro message that "Server is unavailable" Is it possible to run the application on this machine. I also tried aspnet_regiis -i and -c command
I want to create a download link for my Windows Forms application. I know you can do that using ClickOnce but I don't want a ClickOnce app so a added a setup project to my application that I just got to work the way I want so now I want to make it downloadable from my website. Should a I a web service or a WCF Service to do this or something else and what else should I do?
I'm trying to deploy my MVC 2.0 web application to a Windows 2003 server with IIS6, and can't find the means to do it. I read about clicking Build/Deploy, but I don't have this showing on my menu, and I have the professional version.
I have to write a application which connects to remote server(windows 2003 server, open SQL Management studio in that server and enter a specific SQL Server address and access a stored procedure, change some values and execute the stored procedure.)
I have to write this application using C#.Net , Could anybody point me in right direction, Where do I start?
When attempting to publish a web application from Visual Studio 2010, I receive the following error: Get service of SVsBuildManagerAccessor fails I'm using Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate (x86) on Windows 7 Professional (x64). I've attempted publishing the web app via FTP and Local File System and receive the above mentioned error. I've searched the internet for the error but have found no solutions.
I have a clean installation of Windows 7 with VS2010 RTM and am trying to get the ASP.NET Development Server to work. When I run the project, the WebDev server starts and shows that it's listening on port x on localhost. I've tried:telnet to the port. The port is not listening. running netstat -o shows that the WebDev server is in fact not listening on any port. manually changing the WebDev port to a different port and restarted VS without effect. I have Windows Firewall turned off entirely and am not running any other firewall software either.
I am developping the ERP Web Application. My solution structure is as given below. Main Web Application - Having reference to All Module Web Application. Common Web Application - Has Master Page, User Control, Login page, Defualt Error and etc Module Web Application - Having Module wise Aspx and code behind. It refer Common Web Application to reduce redundacy. In this Context we are facing the following problem.
1) while running web application in the debug mode it gives error as 'the target assembly contains no service types. You may need to adjust the Code Access Security policy of this assembly'
2) Could not Debug both Module and Common Web Application.
3) In Design Time both Master or user control not renders in refered Aspx Page.
4) While I debug in visual studio 2010, it gets restart after some time.
When i create a Windows Service for getting information from a Web Application(ASP.NET c#) for scheduling some task in the client machine.
To consume WCF from the web application. I added WCF reference to Window Service project as a service reference, everything seems fine. It updated app.config file, added service reference etc. it was not working.
I developed a web service in VS2010 on my local machine, wrote a consumer of it also locally, and that all works.
I copied the dll and the asmx file to our server, and I am getting an error when I try to invoke it from a browser (also still on the server machine) to make sure it correctly exposes its web methods, but it is not, it is saying "Could not create type 'Service'". That error comes from this line:
Line 1: <%@ WebService Language="C#" CodeBehind="~/App_Code/WarrantyDuplicate.cs" Class="Service" %> There other web services in the same folder on the server that all work fine so I don't believe it's an IIS setup thing.
This is my first web service in C# and when I created it in VS I did think it odd that the code behind file went into App_Code (as you can see from the line in the asmx file) and is just named dot-cs rather than asmx-dot-cs. But since it worked fine locally, I wasn't sure that mattered.
I have a ASP.NET application. From that, User register, User will get email after registration. My Req : When user click on link provided in email. Then it should go to my ASP.Net application page . That page should install a wincows application on Client system through web ( I was inspired by Microsoft Windows update from Microsoft site)
We have a website portal hosted in Windows 2003 server. For security reasons we are using different windows Login user say (xxxx) for signin other than Administrator. Now with this user (xxxx) name I installed .net Windows Application. It was working fine. For some reasons I renamed the original windows Login user(xxxx) to different say (yyyy). Now this .net Windows Application is not working with (yyyy) and even it is not allowing me to uninstall it.
