Visual Studio :: Visualizer For LINQ To SQL Throws Exception When Encountering A Timestamp - Rowversion In The Data
Jan 10, 2011
This problem is trivial to duplicate. Do any query on a table which contains a timestamp / rowversion column. Set a breakpoint and examine the resulting query in the Linq to SQL visualizer. Click on Execute which displays the results in a DataGridView. For each row you get "System Argument Exception: Parameter is not valid" when it tries to display the timestamp / rowversion in the grid. What is most annoying is that there is no way to get out of the visualizer without going to Task Manager and killing the Visual Studio process, devenv.exe.
This is definitely a bug. How can you presume to be able to display a database query when you can't display an essential datatype like timestamp / rowversion? Is there any way around this ? I would like to add that in general the CLR is woefully inadequate in the way it handles timestamp / rowversion fields. It would be nice if they could be defined, copied, compared, displayed and serialized in some standardized automatic way.

I have simple 3 tier web application and have mostly CRUDE functionalities. Recently I required to add new console application to the existing solution in which I call data layer methods for retrieving data from DB but I get an exception "The type initializer for threw an exception."When I debugged I found that the exception is thrown at datalayer on first line of class where I get connectionstring from
web.config, the code is public static readonly string CONNECT_STRING =
ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DbConnectString"].ConnectionString;
Now if I hardcode the connection string value like public static readonly string CONNECT_STRING = "Data Source=XYZ;uid=sa;password=XXX;initial catalog=ABC;"
it works fine.I don't understand what is the issue here as web application works fine with this datalayer.

I was following a MSDN walkthrough [URL] which is a very simple ASP.NET example with Visual Studio 2010:
·
I have a simple database table with a timestamp column;
·
I created a "Linq to SQL Class", and drag the table from Server Explorer onto it;
·
I dragged a LinqDataSource onto the web page and pointed it to the dbml;
·
I dragged a DetailsView onto the web page using the LinqDataSource.
·
I enabled editing on the data source.
When I run, the time stamp column is also displayed on the DetailsView as something like "AAAAAAAAB9Y=". Then, when I change the "EmployeeName" and update, I got following exception: Failed to set one or more properties on type person. Cannot convert value of parameter 'tstamp' from 'System.String' to 'System.Data.Linq.Binary'. I was strictly following the MSDN walkthrough. I tried multiple times, I even installed Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Beta. But it consistently through this exception. Can someone shed some light on this? Not a encouraging start form someone thinking to learn the lastest Microsoft stuff!

every now and then my server throws an exceeption. When it first starts to throw an exception the server wont work until I reinstall my web app (copy and Paste). I think this forces a restart of IIS and somethiong gets cleared bercause the app is working again for some hours, sometime less. Now I have created a scheduled task recopying all the web site files every 15 minutes. This restarts the server and the users are able to use the site. Problem is that now the server either start throwing exceptions, or the user is kicked because the server restarts. So you see, this is absolutly not a good solution.I have looked in the Event Viewer on the sever. Her is some examples of the exceptions:
[Code]....
An other exception:
[Code]....
As you can see, the common part of all the exceptions is the Exception message: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Int32' to type 'System.String'. Her is the code of one of the places throwing an exxception:
[Code]....

I added a column of type "timestamp" to a table in SQL Server to use for concurrency control. I deleted all my tables from the Linq surface and then added them back. I see that the "Time Stamp" attribute is set to True for the timestamp column and False for all the other columns. I also see that the "Update Check" attribute is set to Never for all columns, including the timestamp column.
After watching some demo videos and reading some tutorials, I had expected to have to manually set the "Update Check" attribute values on the columns - to Never for all columns but the timestamnp column where it should be set to Always. But, before setting the "Update Check" to Always on the timestamp column, I decided to test it the way it was, and Linq seems to be doing the right thing - it seems to be using the timestamp column for concurrency control correctly even with "Update Check" set to Never on the timestamp column.
So my question is - does the fact that "Time Stamp" is set to True trump the "Update Check"? Or is there any other reason one could or should set "Update Check" to Always on a timestamp column? Is there any change in behavior?

I have a Timestamp column in my Table. I want to read the date time value and display in UI.
In Linq the Timestamp column is represented as System.Data.Linq.Binary.
I dont know how to retirve date time value in "MM-dd-YYYY" format from this Linq.Binary
- Why I am using Timestamp?.
I want to perform some operations based on the last modified date time of the particular row. Since I am using TimeStamp column in my Table as version column, It will contain the last modified date details, So i want to read the date time value from this time stamp column to do some other operations.

We have an old asp application that instantiates a .NET com visible class. In this class, we do some serialization to store our object in the session.
When I call the following line of code in my test class, it works fine.
var cereal = new XmlSerializer(couponApplicator.GetType());
However, when it gets called in the website and I am debugging, it throws the following error:
{"Cannot execute a program. The command being executed was "C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\csc.exe" /noconfig /fullpaths @"C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\rwot-yx9.cmdline"."} System.SystemException {System.Runtime.InteropServices.ExternalException}
I thought maybe it was permissions related so I tried giving 'EVERYONE' full control to the windows/microsoft.net folder as well as the windows/temp folder. For reference, I am running this on a Windows XP machine.

i have this (simple) code
<% Html.RenderAction("Version", "Generic"); %>
in my masterpage of my asp.net mvc 2 app. This method returns the version of the application.
i also have this code in my controller:
class GenericController : BaseController
{
[ChildActionOnly]
public string Version()
{
try
{
string assemblyFile = Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().FullName;
FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(assemblyFile);
string version = fi.LastWriteTime.Year.ToString( ) + fi.LastWriteTime.Month.ToString() + fi.LastWriteTime.Day.ToString();
return version;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
return "1.0";
}
}
}
Now i get this error:
Execution of the child request failed. Please examine the InnerException for more information.
and the innerexcpetion is:
{"The controller for path '/Account/LogOn' was not found or does not implement IController."}
What i was thinking is that maybe the code can't execute because the user is not logged on yet, and tries to redirect to the logon method etc.
So the first thing i was thinking is to grant access in the web.config (like i do with the directory that has the css and images in it, it should also be accessable when you're not logged on:
<location path="Content">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
but what is the path for this (version) method ?
(or maybe there is another reason for the excpetion.

After googling for couple of days, I really cannot solve described issue. Hope here will find a solution
I'm using attached code when calling WCF service on the same server. I get Timeout error randomly in call WebReq.GetRequestStream()
When I'm check netstat I see that connection remains open, so probably is there a problem, but I don't know how to solve it
//request inicialization
HttpWebRequest WebReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
WebReq.Method = "POST";
WebReq.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8";
WebReq.ContentLength = buffer.Length;
WebReq.Proxy = null;
WebReq.KeepAlive = false; //also tried with true
WebReq.AllowWriteStreamBuffering = false; //also tried with true
//this produces an error
using (Stream PostData = WebReq.GetRequestStream())
{
PostData.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
PostData.Close();
}
//open and read response
HttpWebResponse WebResp = (HttpWebResponse)WebReq.GetResponse();
Stream Answer = WebResp.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader _Answer = new StreamReader(Answer);
WebResp.Close();
//return string
return _Answer.ReadToEnd();
Timeout is thrown mostly after some 10 seconds of idle time, but also after five or so requests in the row. Really cannot find a pattern.
What could be wrong with this code? Is there any other (better) way for calling WCF service?

I have a custom authorization attribute, that basically check if the current user's role is equals to the current area name, and if not, redirect them to the signup view in that requested area. (dummy role provider at this this stage, therefor check it against the user's name at the moment)
It runs fine (IIS) but when I debug it I can see a Security Exception are being thrown by the code

I have several text boxes in an asp:Panel. When the user hits Enter from any of those boxes, I want the form to submit as if they've clicked btnAddTag. (When the cursor is not in those boxes, I have a different default submit button.)
The aspx:
<asp:Panel id="thePanel" runat="server">
<asp:Button ID="btnAddTag" Text="Add Tag" runat="server" />
</asp:Panel>
The vb:
tagPanel.DefaultButton = btnAddTag.UniqueID
The exception:
The DefaultButton of 'tagPanel' must be the ID of a control of type IButtonControl.
The value of btnAddTag.UniqueID is ctl00$phMain$btnAddTag (there's a master page, this section is called phMain).
I've also tried CType(tagPanel.FindControl("btnAddTag"), Button).UniqueID.

In Asp.net application. i cache a Linq to Xml result to a Cache object. when i cast the cache object back to generic list. i get the following exception.
[A]System.Collections.Generic.List`1[CarRentalAddress] cannot be cast to [B]System.Collections.Generic.List`1[CarRentalAddress].

I am working on application which is deployed in UK environment. But the machine which I am using has US as dateculture.
I always face issues while running application on my machine as some of the functionality which involves date doesnot work and throws exception.
I tried to google on the datetime conversion issue but it did not help.
Can any one please guide me about the changes to be done so that the application works fine in both US and UK environments?

Basically what I am trying to do is have my webpage project folder located directly on my local machine (ex. Local #1). Our database is located on a server (ex. Server #1) . I am building my web applications on my local machine and then trying to debug them in Visual Studio 2008. Only every single time I click to debug my project I get a "Security Exception" error that looks something like the following...
"Description: The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the required permission please contact your system administrator or change the application's trust level in the configuration file.
Exception Details: System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Web.AspNetHostingPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed."
I'm somewhat leaning towards the fact that I need to connect to the database to pull information from it and I don't have the proper permissions is the reason why this is happening but I've also read that it can be something that deals with improper configuration of my Web.Config file (i.e. I do not have something enabled).
Note #1: A co-worker of mine is having the same problem if he tries to put the project locally and then debug it. He has full administrative access to the DB and everything else.

I have question about N-tier architecture. everyone about 3-Layer architecture these are:
1). UI Layer,
2). Business Layer,
3). Data Access Layer.
i already have worked on this.
Then i heard about LINQ to sql. how many layer an web application should contain.
As my knowledge. if i use LINQ to slq then i have to worked only 2-Layer:
- Data Acess/Business Layer: which contains only *.dbml files which is my database and
- UI Layer: which contains *.aspx files.
