View 5 Repliesi want my application to provide a web ui for remote access, but i do not host that web page in IIS, because i do not want everyone install IIS on their home PC.
i spend some reading the asp.net pipeline, but still not figure how to load the .aspx file in my code.
I have this web app that works just fine when I run it on IIS 6.0, but when I run it on a different machine with IIS 5.0, it ends up having file access problems. Basically, my web app uses a COM object, and this COM object uses resources, such as files, and these files are located in remote machines. A sample code would be:
Code:
MyComObj com = new MyComObj();
com.UseDataFiles("machineBdata.dat");
Again, it works fine on my machine with IIS 6.0, but in my other machine with IIS 5.0, it gives me an error. To be more precise, it's the COM object that gives me an error; the com object tells me that it can't find the file. What's weird is that when the web app calls this line:
System.IO.File.Exist("machineBdata.dat");
It returns True, which means my web app has permission to read, but when it does it through my com object, it can't see it. Again, I dont' think it's the COM object that has the problem since it runs fine on IIS 6.0. In fact, I ran a windows form application (that uses the COM) on the machine with IIS 5.0, and it works fine.
I want to Access remote server( ie., want to access online server not local server) in my Application.. I change Settings in SQL surface Area Configuration---> Remote Connection ( checked the Local and Remote Connection ) Then while running the application it showing the following error.(I make off the firewall also) An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to force a large (200+ MB) file to download that's on a remote server. The problem is that I can't use the "WriteFile()" function, since I'm not using a virtual path. Then, when I try:
Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition",
If I have a web application that needs to use a file, it presents the user with a standard open file dialog. But instead of uploading the file to server can it modify the file locally in a temporary location, while uploading in the background? That way the user does not have to wait for the upload before they can use my web app.
View 1 RepliesI would like to know that is there any way to access the master page which is located at the different site.
For example,
Master page url is www.something.com/master/some.master
Content page url is www.someurl2.com/page/som2.aspx
Is there any work around to access the above content page to use the master page.

View 5 RepliesMy ASP.NET application logs transactions (both inside AND outside of databases), and therefore needs read/write access to text files within various directories within the root of the website - in ADDITION to the normal database access.
In this scenario, how can I safely allow my ASP.NET application to write data to the web folders? I have a thread-safe DLL that performs the actual work, so I don't believe I need to worry about multiple sessions writing to the log files at the exact same time - assuming my DLL will only be running in a single instance/process that will be shared between numerous ASP.NET instances/processes/threads.
But I'm more concerned about file access permissions. I've heard that ASP.NET applications generally aren't allowed access to the webserver's local file system, and that this may even restrict my DLL from getting the correct file access. Can I grant my application file-access to the web-driectories?

View 2 RepliesI have an ASP.NET MVC site that is running into some conditions that it is pegging the processor on the iss boxes it's running on. I don't have access to these servers (it's a farm of about 5 iis6 boxes behind a netscalar). I am doing some logging to a sql database, but the problem is that when the cpu pegs my database starts timing out. The iis servers are hosted in house, but I can't get access to them.
And to make things ever more complicated, I can't reproduce any of these issues in my qa environment (which I don't have access to either). QA is setup to similarly to our prod environment, but it runs on a single box that isn't behind a netscalar.
I keep getting a
InvalidOperationException: ExecuteReader requires an open and available Connection. The connection's current state is closed.]
It is because my connection is closed. What is wrong with my connection string? Why won't it open.

I have an interesting challenge. My application uses a third party's services and one of the functions is to upload video files to Amazon S3. The current solution I've implemented uses a simple form with a POST action set to a URL on Amazon's system. The
issue I have is that because the form posts to Amazon, I have no way of doing any type validations before the user clicks to upload the file i.e. checking file type, file size, etc.
However, I really do NOT want to set up my logic so that the file is first uploaded to my server then to Amazon because these are huge files and we'll end up using costly bandwidth on both ends -- our server and Amazon S3.
P.S. To be perfectly honest, I'm not that pleased with the current solution where it's a simple HTML form with a simple post to Amazon. However, because Amazon is so picky about all the hidden fields in my asp.net page, I had to strip everything off the
page -- including form runat"server" because the minute I have this, I end up with a hidden field for ViewState -- even if I completely turn off ViewState. There's always something left as a hidden field and Amazon was generating an error because of this.
Ideally, I'd love to be able to do an HttpWebRequest in code behind so that I can have the functions of a web form back and do some pre-upload work but I'm not sure how to upload the file to a remote destination without putting the file on my server first.

View 2 RepliesI am uploading video files, which are somewhat large (5mb - 50mb) via asyncfileupload. I am able to successfully uploaded files of all sizes up to 1.5gb, that I've tested, on my test server and also locally on the production server. It works great, locally.
However, when I process the form that is hosted on my VPS server from my home, it tanks out and I usually receive the error: Access is denied. However, it works occasionally for small files. <1.5mb
I have edited and re-edited all of the associated config files, etc...So it shouldn't be a file size issue-especially since large files are successful locally.
I've also adjusted the UploadReadAheadSize attribute as described in another forum.
