How would I retrieve IP address with Razor? I have tried @Request.UserHostAddress and it returned ::1 to me instead of an IP adress. I am running this of course under IIS8 that came with webmatrix.
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.
In Windows Forms I can create a class file called 'Authentication.cs' with the following code:
public class Authentication { public string Name; internal bool Authenticate() { bool i = false; if (Name == "Jason") { i = true; } return i; } }
In WebMatrix, I can insert a new Class file, called 'Authentication.cs', and insert the above code. And in my default.cshtml file, I do this:.........................
I'm learning razor syntax, using the startersite in WebMatrix and trying to display some data from a table. I want to select only the data from the logged in user, so in effect want to say
...WHERE UserId =@WebSecurity.CurrentUserId";but that doesn't work.
Using the @0 method doesn't work for me either - I get an 'A parameter is missing. [ Parameter ordinal = 1 ]' error.
Do I have to set a variable then use the @0 / @1 / @whichever way? If so - what's wrong with this code?
@{ //Is the user logged in? WebSecurity.RequireAuthenticatedUser(); [code]...
While it has gnerally been advocated to separate code from mark up and all that, with the razor syntax and webmatrix all that is not valid anymore, I think. WebMatrix encourages code and mark up in the same page! So what is the best practice as far as code and mark up is concerned.
When you do introduce intellisense and colorization to the razor editor, what about allowing the developer to choose the schema that it verifies against? If it could by default use a flavour of HTML, but optionally allow the dev to reference an arbitary XSD file (as supportted by the XML text editor). It could result in a very flexible experience that supports using ASP.Net MVC as a web service returning XML.
I can not get the _PageStart.cshtml to work for my layout senario. I would prefer to use _PageStart to define a layout for all files in each folder. Each folder represents a different app feature that will contain different layouts.
Until I find a work about I had to copy and past the Layout ="~/folder/_PageStart.cshtml into each page of the folder to get the different layouts to work.
_PageStart isn't being recognized at all as the folders page start. Is there a web config setting missing? The docs aren't fully extensive yet for all Razor related info and I couldn't find anyone discussing this problem via search results.
In order to keep close to code once and separation I need to use the _PageStart.cshtml method rather than code a line in each page in the folder.
On win7 using both webmatrix and vs2010 web engines. Neither recognizes _PageStart.cshtml but hard coding into each file works.
Is it possible to somehow output some content based upon some conditional check in Razor? If not, I hope this possibility will be added in the future. What I want to do is the following:
It's great that Razor HTML encodes by default. However, many times I have HTML in a database and want to display it literally on a page. In WebForms 4, we can use <%= %> and <%: %> to choose between encoding options. Raven's syntax is currently @(new HtmlString(Model.Greeting)).
add a shorter syntax to Razor. Something like @=Model.Greeting or @@Model.Greeting, or something else.
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...
I'm just starting out with WebMatrix and would like to know how to style a @Html.TextBox("email") and @Html.Password("password") control? I've tried (in my CSS file):
.email{ /* styles here */ } .password{ /* styles here */ }
But that has no effect at all. How can we style these types of controls?
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 :

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.

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:
