C# - DirectoryInfo And Path.GetDirectoryName - Exists Method Returns False While Exists?

Dec 13, 2010

I would like to check whether a folder exists or not if not create. I'm sure this folder exists, but for some reason I get "false" when I check with "Exists" method.

The only reason I think could be because of the W: drive? I moved this application to production site and even there it returns false.

while I'm type in Windows explorer on my localhost and on the server "W:/Webs/ASPPages/cropper/uploads" it opens this folder. So my localhost and IIS server has W: mapping.

for test I tried to create the folder then it says can't find the path...

userFolderName = @"W:/Webs/ASPPages/cropper/uploads"
//I also tried @"W:WebsASPPagescropperuploads"
//I also tried @"W:WebsASPPagescropperuploads"
//I also tried "W:\Webs\ASPPages\cropper\uploads"
DirectoryInfo dirInfo = new DirectoryInfo(userFolderName);........

This function File.Exists() always returns false and when I try to remove the check, it returned the exception, "Logon failure: unknown username or bad password."

MVC :: "Path" To Linked File - FileInfo.Exists Always False?

Nov 30, 2010

i set up Log4Net in a project, with the Log4Net.config file in "App_Data/config/Log4Net.config", and called the XmlConfigurator.Configure function with the following:

[Code]....

However, I the config file to be available in multiple projects, so moved it out to a solution folder (config/Log4Net.config).

Back in my MVC project, I added the config file as a linked file (and also set it to a "embedded" resource and "copy always" for the heck of it)

However I got no idea how the previous "var configfile = new FileInfo("????")" should read.

Tried it with and without Server.MapPath, using "Log4Net.config", "/Log4Net.config", "~/Log4Net.config", etc. No luck.

My guess it's because this Log4Net.config is not an actual file, but just linked.

User Still Exists In Roles.GetUsersInRole After DeleteUser() With DeleteAllRelatedData = False

Jan 13, 2010

I have an account called "admintest" which is "admin" as its role. I called the following line to delete the user with deleteAllRelatedData=false because I just want to mark the user as deleted (I may need to retrieve users' history later)

bool result = Membership.DeleteUser("admintest", false);

After that, I call the following line to get the user:

string[] users = Roles.GetUsersInRole("admin");

But I still get "admintest" in the users array.

C# - File.Exists Using The Wrong Root Path?

Mar 17, 2011

In my c# class I wrote I have a photo property that returns the photo source if the image exists (nothing or default image otherwise). In my code I use:

public string Photo
{
get
{
string source = "~/images/recipes/" + id + ".jpg";
if (File.Exists(source))
return "~/images/recipes/" + id + ".jpg";.......

If I get the FileInfo() information for this image I see that I tries to find this image in the following directory: C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesMicrosoft SharedDevServer10.0~images ecipes Of course the image is not located in that directory and File.Exists is returning me the wrong value.how can I fix this?

C# - 'Contains' Method Returns False?

Jan 16, 2011

I've an EntityCollection< T > which contains an element but the Contains method returns false.

I've overriden T's 'Equals' method but the 'Contains' method does not call it (while it's said so in documentation).

When I do foreach (T x in coll), x.Equals(element) returns true.

code:

contains(object entCol, object val)
{
var coll = (ICollection<GraphicSockets>)entCol;
var socket = val as GraphicSockets;
foreach (GraphicSockets sock in coll)
socket.Equals(sock); //true for first element, GraphicSocket's Equals function called
coll.Contains(socket);//false, Equals function not called}

the code i'd actually like to use is

private static bool contains(object entCol, object val)
{
Type entColType = typeof(EntityCollection<>).MakeGenericType(val.GetType());
MethodInfo contains = entColType.GetMethod("Contains");
return (bool)contains.Invoke(entCol, new object[] { val });
}

this worked once but stopped when i started using wcf, i wonder how this contains method works.....

C# - Server.MapPath() Returning A Path That Does Not Exist When Used With DirectoryInfo?

Jul 20, 2010

I have a virtual directory setup in IIS6. This maps to a shared network drive.

I can correctly map the path using

string mappedPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(path);

I then create a DirectoryInfo object as I want to find some files in the directory.

DirectoryInfo updateDirectory = new DirectoryInfo(mappedPath);

But then updateDirectory.Exists is false?? I can take the string from the mappedPath and copy into Start->Run to get to the path so I know it exists. I am authenticating to the webservice using integrated windows authentication and have permissions to the necessary folders.

Is there something obvious I'm missing in the code? Or is this purely set-up and configuration of IIS etc.?

Iterator Not Iterating / Iterator Within The While Loop Returns False For The MoveNext Method?

Mar 16, 2011

I'm having trouble with something that is (or should be) fairly straight-forward.

I have a recursive method that traverses an XML file, writing out the element tag names and values.

This is a snippet from the XML file:

[code]

<root>
<all_companies>
<company_group company_group_ID_attr="1">
<company_group_name>Cleaning</company_group_name>
<company_group_ID>1</company_group_ID>
<company company_ID_attr="2">
<name>Bloomburg</name>
<company_ID>2</company_ID>
<Address>blah blah blah</Address>
<employee_refs>
<employee_ref>4</employee_ref>
</employee_refs>
</company>
<company company_ID_attr="4">
<name>Morris</name>
<company_ID>4</company_ID>
<Address>blah blah blah</Address>
<employee_refs>
<employee_ref>3</employee_ref>
<employee_ref>1</employee_ref>
</employee_refs>
</company>
<company company_ID_attr="7">
<name>Ajax</name>
<company_ID>7</company_ID>
<Address>blah blah blah</Address>
<employee_refs>
<employee_ref>4</employee_ref>
<employee_ref>2</employee_ref>
</employee_refs>
</company>
</company_group>
</all_companies>
</root>

[/code]

I use the following XPath expression to access the first <company group> tag:
"root[1]/all_companies[1]/company_group[1]"

On the first call to the recursive method ("swrite_for_select_certain_stuff"),I see with the debugger that I reach the <company_group_name> tag. A recursive call at that point takes me to the text node within the tag ("Cleaning"), but it is a text type node (not an element), so it returns without writing anything to the output stream.

On return from that second call, things go wrong. The Iterator within the while loop returns false for the MoveNext method, when it should have moved to the <company_group_ID> tag (or so I think it should).

Am I missing something here?

OS is Win XP, and .NET is version 4.0.

My code is as follows:

ADO.NET :: Error - Key Already Exists In The ObjectStateManager

Feb 17, 2011

I have a property object that has many activities associated to it. I want to delete all the activities and then add specific ones back in. I am doing this all before the objectcontext save. I am using multiple objectcontexts and attaching/detaching the objects. I am getting the property from the propertyreository objectcontext which is the primary context. Then I get the user which takes a bool to determine if I want to detach from the userrepository object context. I attach to the propertyrepository.

All is good but when I remove all the activities from the property object (entityobject) and then try to attach the activity that I retrieve from the database I get the error: key already exists in the ObjectStateManager Error. When I remove all the activity entity objects from the property entity object they are not really deleted from the objectcontext or the database until I use the save() on the objectcontext which will change all the entity object statuses. How then after I remove the activity do i add it back to the property.Activities?

I have a database for a shop. Now I have run into problem when I'm adding products. I have a page where i add general info of the product that will be adding to the product table. Then I should have a page where I can add colors and sizes and so on. But how do I do that? When I add the product I set a price in the productdetail table and colorId and sizeId is sett to null. If I add a color to the table how do I do this the easiest way? I will not have a product where both colorId and sizeId is null. I have this SP and table structure. Then I'll do the same when I add sizes.
