WebMatrix :: How To Set The Value Of Webgridcolumn.format In The Class File
Sep 2, 2010
About: I want to define format string of the webgridcolumn by myself.Example:There is a ID column in a webgrid ,i want the cell of this column filled the data like "<a href="/Default/@ID">@ID</a>"
Microsoft.WebPages.Helpers.WebGrid mygrid = new Microsoft.WebPages.Helpers.WebGrid(tarobjs,canPage:Convert.ToBoolean(data.Groups["enablepager"].Value), rowsPerPage: Convert.ToInt32(data.Groups["pagesize"].Value));
I've been practicing with WebMatrix and I've come across this problem. I'd like to use the format property of the WebGrid Column in vbhtml but I can't get it to work. I always get some kind of compilation error. Mostly the compiler says that an expression is needed. There must be a crucial difference between the way it's done in cshtml and the way it's done in vbhtml.
I've tried setting the <pages pageBaseType="DynamicWebPage" /> value in web.config, but when I response.write out the page type, I'm still getting Microsoft.WebPages.WebPage.
I'm simply trying to sub-class WebPage and add some additional functionality such as a dynamic PageData dictionary similar to Phil Haack's dynamic ViewData dictionary.
I've found a Webmatrix help article that says MS Webmatrix "publishes the (SQL Server or MySQL) database by creating scripts that run in a database that has been created for you by your hosting provider." That is wonderful, except I can't get it to work when I'm trying to publish a MySQL database (backing wordpress) through FTP (my hosting provider does not support 'web deploy'). Again, no problem, since it is already documented that " FTP protocols cannot be used to publish MySQL database. " But this does not excuse Webmatrix from generating MySQL database install scripts for me. During the publishing step, no database install script is generated - at least that I can tell - and there is no manual option to create a database export / backup / install script.
In short, as Webmatrix goes, I'm dead in the water trying to get my database uploaded to my hosting provider. Does anyone know the trick to force Webmatrix to create the MySQL database install scripts on my local box? Once created, I can take-over the upload and install process.
I'm wondering if it is possible to include Microsoft.Data.Entity.CTP.dll reference to WebMatrix site and if the Compact edition of the database would support it? I'd kinda love use something like
code-first development in my WebMatrix project. I think is even easier than writing SQL-s into the code...
In the webMatrix examples, which I have working, it's very easy to access a database. Only three lines are necessary to get up and going:
@{ var db = Database.Open("LOS"); var selectQueryString = "SELECT * FROM wknTest"; }
and a little later,
@foreach(var row in db.Query(selectQueryString)){
There's no using's, no connection strings, all that happens behind the scenes. But now I have enough complicated c# code that I want to separate it into a separate C# file. How would I do the above, but in a C# file residing in the app_code folder in a webMatrix project?

WebMatrix must be creating the Database object behind the scenes.
I started the Bakery site demo...everything runs fine on my local machine.When I publish the site to production server in w2k8r2+iis7.5 and with .net 4.0 (integrate) pool, my bakery apps not able to connect to the .sdf file.
Error I got is :
Connection string "bakery" was not found. 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. Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: Connection string "bakery" was not found.
Source Error:
Line 2: Layout = "_SiteLayout.cshtml";
Line 3:
Line 4: FacebookSocialPlugins.Initialize("[xxx]", "[xxx]","bakery");
I struggle with publishing 2 databases from WebMatrix using WebDeploy. On Publish settings screen I specify 2 different connection strings, but on Publish Compatibility screen Database names in both destination connection strings are equal. When I return to settings screen, original value is replaced there as well.
How destination server connection strings are evaluated? Here are connection strings from the root web.config file, which are set by hidden parameters in my parameters.xml:
If I create two websites using the starter site template logging into one shows me logged into the other.
Here are the steps:
Create starter website called website1 Create starter website called website2 Run both websites in the same browser, firefox Register an account in website1 Log out of website1 Log back into website1 Refresh website2 and it shows my login name from website1 Has anyone else encountered this?
I'm often experiencing that keyboard shortcuts stops working in WebMatrix. This is very annoying as CTRL-S, CTRL-C, CTRL-V, etc. stops working, all of which are heavily used when programming. It's obviously hard to explain how to reproduce this, but I waswondering if someone knows a quick-fix?
I have build a UserControl with separate code behind file.In that code behind file i have defined some public properties in the Partial class of user control that was automatically generated.Those properties will initialize some properties of controls that are used in the control.Now, in .aspx page i used this User Control and initialized the public properties through code behind of aspx page for dynamic contents.
Edit Note: Actuall this is a suggestion related to WebPages and FileUpload Helper in Razor. I am not looking for workarounds. Following this tutorial: [URL] Under "Letting Users Upload Multiple Files" section it says : Because allowMoreFilesToBeAdded is set to true, the helper renders a link that lets user add more upload boxes. Now say you click "Add another file" link as shown and then decide not to upload 3rd file, is there a way to remove that third upload control?
There I was, happily coding webpages, when suddenly it wouldn't run them anymore. Now when I click run I get an error message that looks like this: Server Error in '/' Application.This type of page is not served. Description:The type of page you have requested is not served because it has been explicitly forbidden. The extension '.cshtml' may be incorrect. Please review the URL below and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Requested URL: /quiz/intro.cshtml Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:4.0.30319; ASP.NET Version:4.0.30319.1
My hosting company states they support .net and razor. However after uploading my website made with webmatrix and razor *.cshtml pages. When i visit my website all i get is 404.17 error messages. As an testcase i decided to add an standard .aspx page. Visiting that page gives the same 404.17 error message :-( .
According to my webhoster my web.config is wrong. However that one is generated by webmatrix. Besides my *.cshtml *.aspx a lot of files and directories are added to the bin folder. What can i check and what should my hosting provider check. When using the check compatibility the asp.net version is shown as unknown? My hosting provider claims my site is running asp.net 4.0 in integrated mode and that should be enough.
It's unfortunate that Microsoft WebMatrix (beta) doesn't recognize that files has been modified. I suggest you implement a feature similar to Visual Studio, allowing the user to decide what to do if the file has been modified outside WebMatrix. Especially when you have a button to launch the project in Visual Studio, it should have better support for "dual-development", cause at it is now, code can be overwritten by mistake easily.
I got the first beta of WebMatrix, downloaded Drupal, and got a site more or less going. I then tried to move it to two different hosts - first the IIS server running on my own domain controller, then to my hosting service. I dumped the DB with mysqldump, and imported it to the databases running on each server. Then I ftp'd the code and configuration files to both servers, and made appropriate configuration changes (primarily the mysql connect string).On both servers I have the same problem: The site comes up in its home page and looks great, but as soon as I log in as the site admin, I get a 404 (not found) error. Since it looks like virtually everything in Drupal is driven from the database, I really haven't the faintest idea where to start debugging this.
Why doesn´t this property return a datetime formated with the following pattern when using the property in the codebehind page in my ASP.NET Webforms website? When debugging i can see that the value the returning datetime is "2011-02-21 16:13:29.670" wich is correct.
[code]....
And after assigning the returned property value to a hiddenfield in the .aspx page i get this value assign to the hiddenfield.value "2011-02-21 16:13:29"
I've been told by my host that I need to enable FullTrust in my webmatrix website because I keep getting an error. (BUT, I have used a different host, and everything on my site works perfectly with them without modification). Anyway, I used the code my host suppllies in their KB, but that just generates a different error. So I looked up full trust on google and used about 5 different code samples to enable full trust but they all generate errors! even the ones on MSDN. And googling "Full Trust WebMatrix" doesn't really bring anything helpful either.
How can I successfully add full trust to a web.config file that is made using WebMatrix?
