I wrote a composite web control that is used in several web applications. If I use sessions variables, for example HttpContext.Current.Session("MyProgramMemberId"), do I run the risk that the host site might have also defined that same session key name?

View 5 Repliesis session state must get destroyed each time we are building our project in web applications? this is really annoying because i have to re-log and get to the page i'm currently working on each time i need to build my project...
View 7 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 1 RepliesWe have a big classic ASP website, and we want to start writing new code in .net, (the website is way to big to rewrite 100% at this stage).
The old website uses session variables, will these still be accessible in the .net pages, and if not (which I suspect) is there anything we can do to make them accessible?
The new section is detachable, that is it is pretty much independent from the rest of the site so should be fine to write in .NET, it's just sessions which are important to us. Do we need another login page?
How bad practise would it be to ajax a local .net page which sets session info when they login to the old site? Can we copy session data this way?
I am looking to build a web application from the ground up. I have done a bit of research, however I just thought I would post here to see what kind of responses I get. I will give a brief description of the type of application I am trying to build. It will be a database web app for managing clients and financials of those clients. The application will need a secure log on system for approximately 160 end users, with the ability to change permissions for each user given their individual rights.
Depending on the type of user created they will have access to 1 of 7 unique application modules within the app framework. A data dictionary will be designed and created prior to starting the project as the 7 unique application modules will have common database fields and custom relationships. Based on this information, what asp.net tools, libraries or books would you recommend using?
I am building an application where I need to check/send a query to database every second. So, is there any way to do that??
View 5 RepliesI am working on building a new shopping cart applicaiton. When i checked many shopping card applications, i found that the cateogry pages and product pages seems to be dynamically created. eg: http://shopping.sify.com/cadbury-bournville-almond/chocolates/CHOC24112009TTL14.htm
How this is being done? Is this page is created while adding product itself?
Im in the process of building an Enterprise Application, I want to have the DAL & BLL in separate projects, one each. With a structure like this, what should i do with the Models folder in MVC'S Default Project?
View 3 RepliesI need to build a globalized web application, and I already have those resource files in the App_GlobalResources folder. My web application is built upon an N-tier architecture: DAL, BLL and Presentation are the layers, and we are using SQL Server 2008. We have decided that the database, BLL and DAL will always be operating using the en-US culture, but the culture in the Presentation layer can vary.
ASP.NET works with two culture properties: Culture and UICulture. There's an article in MSDN that states that a thread's UICulture determines which resource files ASP.NET picks, and Culture determines datetime/currency formating, etc.
So, to have a fully globalized application, I think I must set both Culture and UICulture, so that both Resources and datetime/currency formating are displayed using the same culture.
Then I thought I would set those culture properties (both of them) in the BeginRequest event in my web application, based on the user's choice, and that everytime a method in the BLL is called, it sets the thread's Culture property to "en-US" and, just before it returns, it sets the thread's Culture back to what it was before.
I'm building an Iphone application, which has to retrieve information from a database on a server.
I thought about building a C# web service on the server,so the Iphone app will send a http request to the web service and get the required data as a xml output. Are there any better alternatives? for instance: I never tried but heard about WCF, maybe it's better using it instead of the older xml web service technology?
Is it possible to develop something like this with asp.net, html and javascript?

View 2 RepliesMy new office project is based on an MVP design and is in VB.NET (.NET 3.5), using multiple libraries (like EntLib, internal corporate framework, etc.). The number of DLLs used as references is so huge (almost 50) that when I try to build/debug the application in VS2008, it takes almost 3-4 minutes to get the website running successfully.Wanted to know if there are any settings/areas which upon some modifications can help me reduce the build time? and what exactly can be the major reasons behind this long loading duration?

I am new to asp.net mvc and don't feel too comfortable to diving 100% into silverlight web application. I done some research and found that asp.net mvc can host silverlight application. That is great new since I want to leverage new technologies.
However, silverlight currently does not support printing and SSRS reporting. My question, can asp.net mvc hosts multiple applications like both silverlight and regular asp.net applications. I can design the asp.net application to handle the reporting and printing.

View 2 RepliesI'm building an ASP.NET MVC application and I'm trying to deploy it on a free host (0000free) which does support ASP.NET. I tried a couple of things, but none of them worked (i.e. I only see the directory structure when I browse to my web site):
Publishing to a local folder and then copying the published files via ftp over to my host (in the public_html directory).
Publishing via ftp to the root folder: ftp.mywebsite.com
Publishing via ftp to the public_html folder: ftp.mywebsite.com/public_html
Usually I would just drop the html files in the public_html folder, but I'm getting the feeling that the deployment process for an MVC application is slightly different. Do I have to modify the Web.config or some other filer? How does one usually deploy an MVC application (on a free host)?
Update:I have learned that the host uses Mono and supports .NET 4.0, but I'm still not able to deploy.
I have Visual Studio 2010 and I used its Publish Feature (i.e. right click on the project name and click publish) and I tried several things:
Publish method: FTP to the root folder.
Publish method: FTP to the publich_html folder.
Publish method: File System to the root folder.
Publish method: File System to the publich_html folder.
Publish method: File System to a local directory on my computer and then FTP to root and also tried the public_html folder.
I went into the cPanel (control panel) to try and see if ASP.NET has to be added/enabled for my web site, but I didn't see anything there.I can't browse to Index.aspx nor can I redirect to it from index.html (as suggested from other posts on the host forum), right now I have a link from index.html to Index.aspx but it's not working either (see http://www.mydevarmy.com)I've also tried renaming Index.aspx to Default.aspx, but that doesn't work either.
The search utility of the forum of the host is somewhat weak, so I use google to search their forum: http://www.google.com/search?q=publish+asp.net+site%3A0000free.com%2Fforum%2F&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
I've been reading Pro ASP.NET MVC Framework and they have a chapter about publishing, but it doesn't provide any specific information with respect to the location of publishing, this is all they say (and it's not very helpful in my case):
Where Should I Put My Application?You can deploy your application to any folder on the server. When IIS first installs, it automatically creates a folder for a web site called Default Web Site at c:Inetpubwwwroot, but you shouldn't feel any obligation to put your application files there. It's very common to host applications on a different physical drive from the operating system (e.g., in e:websites example.com). It's entirely up to you, and may be influenced by concerns such as how you plan to back up the server.
