In context of an ASP.NET Website project, is it possible to create a second location where DLLs will be picked up from, in addition to the regular bin/ location and apart from the GAC? I expect such a feature would be made possible by the configuration.

View 2 Repliesis it possible to make a single assembly for whole WebSite in Visual Studio 2010?
With Web Deployment Project i can do this in VS2008, but it is not compatible with new version.
I'd like to create a class library project where embed resources like js, css and maybe image files. I would compile it and copy the dll into the bin folder of my web site to include the resources into my pages with GetWebResourceUrl.
I tried with an assembly that have no .cs files, but it doesn't seem to work, I can't see the namespace of the assembly in the web project.
Im trying out the Hudson Continuous Integration. After the build is executed i want to copy the content of the ReleaseBuild to another website on the server.This should be possible i guess but i cant seem figure it out.I know this can be done in nAnt and msbuild but i need to make Hudson do it, eg plugin or something.
View 1 RepliesI want to create a folder to store some web controls, so the site structure doesn't have a zillion files in the root.
Except that if I create an ordinary folder, that folder is also visible on the web site. MSDN said you cannot put it in App_Code, and it doesn't really make sense to put it in other special folder like App_Data or App_Theme.
when I reference a assembly. It's reference gets added to the project file in my case ( ABC.csproj)
Also when I take a look at the web.config file there is a section called <assemblies>. And lot of assemblies are added there.
What is the difference between link to the assemblies in the Project file and the assemblies in the web.config file?
When I run a IIS site locally, all site failures (aspx compilation bugs, exceptions in code, etc) are logged to the system event log. I can check the event log to see the HTTP request path and the exception details.
When I run the site on a webhost, I don't have access to the event log. How can I get the same level of error information?
I should be using a logging provided that records exceptions to a database or something. But suppose that code doesn't even get a chance to run, perhaps because a DLL doesn't load. How could I get information about that failure?
I am trying to figure out what are the basic assemblies required to run a basic ASP.NET 4.0 website. Say.. a website with just a label in it. I looked online and didn't find a list there. I know installing the framework 4.0 will give me all the dlls but I just need the basic ones that will make a basic site work on ASP.NET 4.0.
View 1 RepliesI need to have a copy of all my pages, bin fold, data folder, etc stored in a folder in the root of project called installation.

I have a asp.net website in the IIS which is available on internet as www.xyz.com now I have been asked to prepare another website which will be accessed via www.xyz.com/abc.
For this, do I need to create a virtual directory under the website folder XYZ in IIS? or is there any other way to achieve this.
I have a c# website project in visual studio 2010, and all of my .aspx pages are currently being stored in a ~/Forms directory. The problem is that when I want to go to any web pages, they are all prefixed with "http://localhost:000/Forms/", when what I really want is "http://localhost:000/". So, "http://localhost:000/AboutUs.aspx" instead of "http://localhost:000/Forms/AboutUs.aspx". What is the preferred way to deal with a situation like this? I don't want to rig anything up.
View 1 RepliesOn our website, we have an application within our website. The following is the folder structure:
website1 (main website)
bin directory1
website2(an application)
bin directory2
webconfig2
webconfig1
There are other folders under each of the main folders which contain other pages, images, etc.
We're trying to upgrade the website and are encountering some difficulties. We want to remove the website2 from the main website to see it it's causing the problem.
However, we cannot remove the bin folder and so we can't remove the website2 folder. We've been able to delete everything but the bin folder itself. We've tried downing the website and the application pool but we still get the 'access denied' error message.
I have asp.net website which when published using build > publish website option in VS2010 and even when checking omit debug information option in website publish window,published folder still contains pdb files is there a way to avoid this behavior?.
View 1 Repliestest my site using a test folder called /testing...
Suppose i have the following files:-
MasterPage.master
Default.aspx
[code]...
When i put ALL these files/folders into a folder called "testing" i get an error something on the lines of "MachineApplication etc..", I suppose a lot of people have had problems with this.
But how can i run the site on using a test folder like i want?
I am maintaining an ASP website and the users want to be able to click on a link that open up a folder where they could select which file they want from within that folder.
I tried to making a link with the tag <a href=[folderpath]>Text</a> but I can a 403 HTTP error saying that the website requires a login for this action. Is there some way that I could send the person's credentials along with the request so the folder can be opened?
It seems that the ability to do this in anyway was stopped many, many versions of IE ago.
However, I need to do it SOMEHOW.
I want to be able to select a radiobuttonlist option, click a button and the correct folder opens in explorer
I have a production website that, once built in TFS is re-deployed and updated using xcopy. The entire site (excluding the root directory) it deleted then the new site copied in. This works well.
We use a 3rd party charting package that creates images at runtime and then renders a link to them. In order to do this it needs write permissions to a browsable folder.
Unfortunately, every time we update the website the write permissions of IIS_USRS is lost. Is there any way to retain this?
When my ASP.NET site uses documents (e.g. XML), I normally load the document as follows:
Server.MapPath("~DocumentsMyDocument.xml")
However, I would like to move the Documents folder out of the website folder so that it is now a sibling of the website folder. This will make maintaining the documents considerably easier.
However, rewriting the document load code as follows:
Server.MapPath("../../Documents/MyDocument.xml")
results in a complaint from ASP.NET that it cannot 'exit above the top directory'.
how I can relatively specify the location of a folder outside the website folder? I really don't want to specify absolute paths for the obvious deployment reasons.
I am trying to select all the files from a folder in my website and store them in a collection. The problem is that when I run the website it is not selecting the folder in my website:
This is the basic structure: [Root Folder] --> [FilesFolder]
Here is the code I am using:
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo("FilesFolder");
But it is showing this at runtime as the location of the folder:
C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesMicrosoft SharedDevServer10.0FileUploads
Is there a way to select the folder relative to the root of the website?
I am using C# with ASP.NET 3.5
My urls when I run the asp.net website project (in vs.net 2008) looks like:
http://localhost:54269/www/Default.aspx
So referencing things like:
/sytle/css.css
Doesn't seem to work.
Why does my project have a '/www' folder? Did I set things up wrong?
I currently have a dedicated server running a number of sites, one of these sites I would like to add a subfolder to which runs a seperate index.html file, so effectively it looks like a different site.
I am struggling to acheive this, can anybody give me the steps involved to make this happen?
To clarify, i have a web address for example www.mydomain.com and would like users to browse to www.mydomain.com/subfolder and open up a sub folder.
I have a .net website that I've built but here's the catch - when it's deployed I don't know whether it will be deployed to the root of the site or to a sub folder of a larger site (and it needs to be able to move around between places)
And - here's the important bit - we will have zero access to IIS on the live server so this just has to run straight away.
So far I've managed to find work arounds for things like paths to resources but I now need to use a 3rd party component (.dll).
Normally this would go in the bin folder and, if I run my site in the root of the website it works fine but, as soon as we move the site to a sub folder, the reference to the 3rd party component wont work.
Now - I know normally you'd suggest creating a virtual directory under IIS but remember - I HAVE NO ACCESS TO IIS.
So - is there a way to still use 3rd party components in my project and have my project all run in a sub folder of a website?
And no - I can't move just the bin folder to the root of the site - it all has to sit within its own folder.
I am developing a website in MVC 2.0. I want to change the View folder location in my website. I wanted to keep the views folder inside other folders, When I try to do so i am getting following errors
The view 'Index' or its master was not found. The following locations were searched:
~/Views/Search/Index.aspx
~/Views/Search/Index.ascx
~/Views/Shared/Index.aspx
~/Views/Shared/Index.ascx
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.
My Views folder will be in ~/XYZ/ABC/Views instead of ~/Views. Will I get any problems If I change the default Views folder location. Do I need to change anything in HTML Helper classes because I don't know anything in MVC as this is my starting project i dont want to risk.
