I have a need to generate a barcode on an ASP.NET page. I know how to do this, but the catch is I need this to work on a shared hosting environment. Being a shared host, I don't have the ability to install custom barcode fonts on the server.
Does anyone know of any barcode solutions (possibly open source) that encapsulate fonts in the bin assembly and don't require the barcode fonts to be installed on the server?
When I first published my site, I tested it using my gmail account and worked like a charm first try (a rare feat for me ;) ). Now, I'd like to finish it up by having it send the emails from the account at the host. No joy... I asked the host if I had misunderstood the rather unhelpful info in the control panel and they advised that in my web config I should change:
[code]....
I'm totally new to the Microsoft dev scene so please go easy :)Currently, I have a solution that contains two projects (ASP.net websites, FWIW). If I create a class in Project1, how do I expose it to Project2? Is it automatically available to Project2 because they are in the same solution? Or do I need to do something special to make the connection?
View 5 Repliesi want to run an ASP.NET MVC 2 web application on a .NET 3.5 shared-host provider, I will not mention this provider's name. I will refer to this provider as FOO.
The general community that uses FOO states that it can be done, but the Tech Support at FOO are not consistent:
"What is MVC?" or "Yes, but only on dedicated hosts", or "Yes, it can upon both dedicated and shared hosts" -but they do not know the details.
The general community states that FOO can host ASP.NET MVC 2 on shared hosts, but details on how it is done is inconsistent.
What are general rules of thumb about setting up an ASP.NET MVC 2 for a shared-host environment?
Let us say that we create a vanilla (default) MVC 2 web application from withinVS 2008/2010. What modification should I perform, other than use .NET 3.5 andcopy local System.Web.Mvc.
Does anyone know of any shared hosts that provide more than the typical 200MB of app pool memory?
View 2 RepliesWhat are the kind of things that would cause a session to timeout. I know the default is usually 20 minutes. A website I have set up for a friends business seems to timeout after a few minutes sometimes. I think it could be them recycling a shared application pool.
View 2 RepliesI want to be able to run aspnet_regsql.exe to create the membership tables on a shared host. But since, it is a shared host, I can't do that. I however can create the tables on my box. How do I copy them over?
View 4 RepliesAfter moving my web site from my local development environment to a shared host I get:
Security Exception
Description: The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the required permission your system administrator or change the application's trust level in the configuration file.
The problem occurs in my web application everywhere the following is called:
WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(Request.ApplicationPath)
Since my web application is only trying to open it's own web.config file, I don't know why this is flagged as a security exception. Maybe someone can explain... But more importantly I need a solution, the couple solutions I found via Google are painful.
I have a website that I have run for years running a custom built CMS. It has had no problems ever. I decided to create a demo (temporary url) of the CMS using the exact same website. Only people I give access to would be able to login and change it, so it basically is not in use for the most part.
I tried this demo site the past few days, and I noticed that I kept getting System.OutOfMemoryException errors. I would wait for an hour or so, then it would work. Next day, same thing.
What could explain this? 2 exact same websites....one that is used all the time (no memory issues), and one that is hardly ever used (memory issues). Doesn't really make sense to me.
i have two solutions, 1st one is webapplication, 2nd one is website.
the 1st soltions (webapplication) includes aspx pages, user controls .... etc.
the 2nd solution (website) also includes pages, user controls ... etc.
now i need to combine between those, so i copy the webapplication inside a folder in the website, and i put the DLL's for the webapplication inside the main Bin folder, and the theme's like so.
but after that, i make some changes in the source code of webapplication, i build the solution, but the new source code updates doesnot appear in the run time !!!! its still running the code before i make combination !!
does that because i make the 1st solution as a webapplication ?
how can i convert the 1st solution to a webapplicatoin? or in other words how can i make combination between webapplication and website to run as one solution?
I have encountered this problem before on a few shared hosts but cant remember the fix. I have spent almost 2 days googling and I have even gone through 2 external hd's of backups of old projects and read the web.configs but I just cant put my find it and I dont think I am googling the correct terms...
I am using Mysql Connector/Net to store asp session state.
The mysql db is on the hosting server ( I have no mysql locally).
Opening a page locally creates a session in the db.
Opening a page on the host does not.
I have seen this issue before but was a long time ago and I have searched a few of the answered questions here but not too extensive, I'm sick of searching.
I have a single contact.aspx application I want to use on a web host but am confused with the publish feature in VWDE 2010. I can't run any commands or packages and was hoping just to upload the .aspx and .cs files and have jit compile to run them.
Why does VWDE 2010 create a .dll and .pdb in the bin folder of my project? I thought the Express versions of VS didn't produce DLLs? On previous editions of VWDE all I needed to do was copy the .aspx and .aspx.cs pages to the host.
I'm trying to edit some code in a website solution which I have opened in vs. I notice that there are only 3 files showing and it doesn't have a web.config and it uses a popup box when I debug it instead of opening up a webpage like default.aspx. I see that I have to use debug.write and not response.write as I normally would. How can I see my debug.write statements?
View 1 RepliesI am searching for a solution to pass a large dataset from visual foxpro(vfp) to a .net web service. The data is personal information such as names, address, phone numbers, etc. with 7 more columns containing id's and other parameters.
We tried cursor to xml dataset but the file size is very large. So my idea is to pass json formatted string. We need to accommodate up to 1 million rows of data
I found this solution on the web for json webservice. [URL] Can this work for such large datasets? Is there anything better suited for my situation
I found this class for VFP [URL] which promises to do what is needed as far as converting to json format. Should this work? Is there anything else I am missing here?

I'm trying to create a .NET solution and add class libraries to it. First - in VS2008 I go to File > New > Project > Other Project Types > Visual Studio Solutions > Blank Solution. Then - after VS2008 creates the blank solution I right click on the solution and select Add > New Project > Visual C# > Class Library. However, when I add the Class Library to the solution, the solution icon disappears from Solution Explorer (although the solution name is still in the VS2008 title bar). Why does the solution icon disappear
from the Solution Explorer when I attempt to do this?
I am stumped by a serious issue in Vs 2008.
I created a Blank solution called HelloWorld.Then I added a new Class Library project by the name of HelloWorldService.After creation of the
Class Library project the Solution name disappeared from Solution Explorer.
As a result of which I can now only add new items into the Class Library project but cannot add new item to the solution.
This appears to be a pretty old problem as I found it in another link on the internet.

It seems to be a bug.Has MS released a patch or a fix for this.
My kind webhost (1and1) royally asked me to go elsewhere to do something like this.
I have 2 sites. One of them was developed by a .Net programmer. Now I am contracted to implement a PHP site and fetch data from the .Net site.
There is an ASP.Net form that a customer fills and when they hit submit, the data gets stored in SQL Server DB. How do I also store the same data in MySQL parallelly? I cannot directly use some database connectors with ASP.Net since MySQL connectivity is not supported on 1and1 Windows hosting (biz account, no less!).
What I thought of is to publish an RSS feed of entries in ASP.Net site and routinely scrape that data into MySQL on Linux host. It is an overkill, I know. Not efficient.
I have one IIS entry with AppPool integrated mode. There are 5 or more host headers assigned. The application pulls data based on the host name from Request.Url.Host. When I have 2 or more sites open at the same time the value of the Request.Url.Host is the same across all the sites. About every 30 seconds it resets itself to the correct value from the last request and shows that value on the other sites. So ultimately the sites are loading the same data. The value in the HOST server variable is incorrect as well.
