Web Forms :: Wants To Publish Without Uploading The Web.config File Each Time?
May 24, 2010
I have a web site that publish to the production site after I make changes. I do this from VS 2008, by clicking Build, then Publish Web Site. How can I do the publish without uploading the web.config file each time? I do not want to update the web.config each time because I use a different database for my testing here locally.
So I've just started up my most recent website: [URL]
and it would seem that every 5th or 6th time I publish my project out of VS 2005 the Web.Config file corrupts and loses its connection string to the database and a nasty exception gets thrown stating that the web.config file does not contain the connection string that all of my SQLDataSource objects use.
I found this unanswered question that would also fix the issue: [URL]
But I'd rather know if there were some sort of simple fix for this that I don't know about.
im trying to upload a 8mb of pdf file but im getting Request Timeout error, below code i have mentioned in the web.config file. In my web page i have used AJAX Scriptmanager, Updatepanel.
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="25600"/> below is the error message
Server Error in '/' Application.
Request timed out. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
I'm working on different windows machines and virtual windows machines on a mac. I have a project wich uses SQL server and AD for autentication.
Right now I have to be connected to VPN so that the asp.net web application can connect to AD using LDAP string to autentivate users, I also have the SQL server on the other side of the VPN connection.
Is there any way to setup my enviroment so that I can work locally without the AD, and on a local SQL server and be able to publish the project without manually changing the web.config file?
I'm using the ajax asyncfileupload plugin to upload files to my server and it works fine for the first file upload but if I try to upload another file before refreshing it throws the exception "Unhandled Exception: $common is undefined".
If I add 'location.reload()' to my UploadComplete javascript method it fixes it but obviously this isn't ideal. Does anyone know how to fix this?

When I publish my Asp.Net MVC website to the production server (via VS2008), the web.config & castle.xml files are overwritten. The content of these files is obviously different between my local dev environment and the production server.How do I prevent these files from being published?
Today I started playing with the web.config transforms in VS 2010. To begin with, I attempted the same hello world example that features in a lot of the blog posts on this topic - updating a connection string.
I created the minimal example shown below (and similar to the one found in this blog). The problem is that whenever I do a right-click -> "Publish", or a right-click -> "Build Deployment Package" on the .csproj file, I'm not getting the correct output. Rather than a transformed web.config, I'm getting no web.config, and instead the two transform files are included.
I'm trying to develop my first web application using Web.Config transformations.Trying to run the app (building with the "Dev" build configuration)in the Asp.Net Debugging web server built into VS the site doesn't seem to work - the "Web.Dev.config" configuration doesn't appear to be seen by the application.
I have problem in publishing news.My module is about news.I want to develop function as publishing news in given time period,such as 1 hour or 2 two hour later it will automatically be taken up,i don't want to put it in web immediatelly.
i am using a file uploader to upload files. Now when i am using this on a mobile emulator with default browser IE it is uploading only those files whose name is less than 6 character. the files with name more than 6 character is not uploading through mobile emulator or mobile phone (PDA). I need this solution very soon.
I'm preparing to deploy a ASP.NET web application. The target server has already a previous version of my web application with parameters specified on the web.config file.
In the new version of this web application, the web.config file contains new sections I would like they appear into the target web.config file on the server.
However I can't find the way to merge the new web.config sections into the existing web.config file ?
Does I have to do it programmatically, or is there a tool to merge the both files during installation ? (I'm using Web Setup Project).
When I Publish my website it takes around an hour and a half. This is publishing to a directory on my local machine, it is not FTP'ing to a remote server. The build seems to take about an hour (when I build without publishing it is noticeably slow, but 5 minutes slow, not an hour), then the publish seems to take a further half an hour.
what could be causing this and how I can improve this? This obviously causes issues when I make a change (I'm constantly updating the site) as I need to wait for an hour an a half. I'm considering not precompiling the site now and simply uploading the .aspx and .cs files direct to the server as this is unmanageable for me.
I am writing a music related web site. What I am trying to do is have the user upload a song (MP3, MP4, Wav). I then want to be able to slice the song to a max lengh of 30 seconds. The user would be able to select a starting point and I would cut the song down to 30 seconds from that point.
while uploading the file on the local host it works fine.but the same coding does not work on the webserver. is there anything to do with the foldr read and write permissions.i m using the server.map for finding the path of the browsed file.
I have a Web application in which I'm trying to use the new AJAX AsyncFileUpload control. I want to use it in the ModalPopupExtender, and I want to embed these two AJAX controls in a user control (photo_upload.ascx) for re-use in different parts of the application. (I understand that this wasn't possible with the older FileUpload control but that it is with this most recent AJAX tool.)
Presently, I merely redirect the user to an upload.aspx page that includes the photo_upload.ascx control (see the sequential screenshots in the attached image); but while this way of doing things "works," it becomes very confusing for the user who has already clicked an upload button or two. In other words, when the "Add Yours" button is clicked, the panel with the "(1) Upload Photo" button unhides; and when the Upload Photo button is then clicked, the user is redirected to the control in the bottom screen. I would gladly bypass the 1, 2, 3 steps in the second screen after the "Add Yours" button is clicked and redirect straightway to the upload control (in the bottom screen, which I will like to be in a ModalPopupExtender), but I also need a way for them to enter a caption that will go with the uploaded photo.

My VB code for the above steps is included below. I would appreciate any fresh ideas on how to accomplish my above objectives.
i m uploading file using fileupload control. when i upload mp3 file with more than 4 MB size it gives error like page can not be displayed. how can i increase capasity of uploading file in my project.
Currently, I work on an ASP.NET project which is hosted under version control and is used on several developer machines, tester machine and production environment.
In three cases, configuration (Web.config) may be different. For example, developer and tester environments use testing SQL Server, whereas in production environment, another SQL Server is accessed, so the connection string is different in those cases.
We want to keep three versions of Web.config in subversion. But modifying each of three files every time we need to add, remove or change a common setting is annoying: it would be nice to have a common, master Web.config, which will be inherited by each of the three Web.config files.
How to set up an ASP.NET project which will use a master configuration file and different slave configuration files on different machines, thus sharing the same project/source code/configuration files in subversion?
