C# - Does Publishing Website Give Any Extra Security Benefits

Nov 15, 2010

I come from a PHP/Rails background where deploying a website often means FTP/Checkout of the source code in the correct directory on the web server.

However, I've been asked to develop an ASP.NET website and some people have advised me to "Publish" the site instead of copying over the source code directly. Apparently, this converts the codebehind (.cs) files into compiled DLL's etc.

My application does not contain any specific secretive business logic. It's a common shopping cart app. My question is if this is a good idea? How does not making the C# code reside on the server make the app more secure?

Security :: Login Controls Cannot Work After Publishing The Website

Jan 5, 2011

I have published a website when is a plain page with login and CreateUserWizard control in it. I have used the "aspnet_regsql.exe" file to configure my database such that there I can see the tables like dbo.aspnet_users. I have also added a the following to the connectionstring in web.config

<connectionStrings>
<add name="ApplicationServices" connectionString="Data Source=***location of DB***; Initial Catalog=***DB Name***; User ID=***My ID***; Password='***My Password***';" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>

I kept getting the "

Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.

" whenever I try to create user account using the CreateUserWizard control.

I am using web hosting account.

Publishing Website And MySQL Database?

Dec 5, 2010

This is what my website looks like:

When I build the website and upload everything as it is, I get this error:

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) I guess I have to deploy Database, or?

When Publishing A Website Default Document Name Keeps Getting Removed From IIS

Nov 7, 2010

I have an ASP.NET web site project, which I'm publishing to IIS on my Win2k8 R2 server. It has a default page called login.aspx. I set that up on the published web site.

Trouble is, every time I publish a new version of the web site, the login.aspx entry gets erased from the "Default Document" settings of the web site in IIS. This is very annoying. How can I publish my web site from Visual Studio without wiping out the default page every time?

Configuration :: Publishing Website To File System?

Mar 26, 2011

The file system I'm publishing to is a not hosted by me, but by my university. IT here offers students their own web directory to host a website. My intention is to use it to host projects for classes and demo them for my professors. You can enter in a specific link in any browser to go to this website and view it as long as there is a file named 'index.html' in the directory with some presentable html code.

So here's the problem. I want my website to be written using ASP.NET and when I use VS2010 to publish my ASP.NET website to the 'File System,' I cannot simply open up my browser, type in the normal link, and have it display. It just shows up as a list of files in the directory and I can see all my source code for the web site

Security :: CreateUserWizard With Extra Profile Info?

Sep 23, 2010

I'm using the CreateUserWizard and it's working great. I do have a "step2" that asks the newly created user their first name and last name. Seems simple enough, but I'm getting an error on the Profile.Save(): "This property cannot be set for anonymous users". I'm assuming this is due to the fact that I have DisableCreatedUser="true" for the CreateUserWizard, which is what I NEED to do. Does this mean that until we enable this user, they can't add these few columns? Since the site I am updating requires matching a newly registered user to an already existing "Artist" table, it's important that the administrators are given the first and last name of the user. The aspnet_User table doesn't have that, so I thought I'd give the profile a try.
