C# - Generating Html Files In A Console Application?
Sep 13, 2010
I need to get data from a database and I need to spit out this data in html formatk using my command line app. For this I am planning to use some sort of template-engine. I was wondering if there is anything in .NET that can do this for me?
The best option would be if I could reuse the asp.net mvc template engine (razor) in my app, this way I should not need to reinvent the wheel.
I have a designer working on several pages in Dreamweaver. The designer is creating .aspx files with the Page directive at the top. These are getting shipped to me and I'm adding them to the Visual Studio ASP.NET WebForms Web Application Project. The problem is that there's no code-behind file by default, and I'm trying to find a shortcut to have them autogenerated as if I've added a fresh page from Visual Studio.
I have a web.config file defined in my asp.net web application. I have many different settings configured there. I have another project, this time a console application. I'd like to read several configurations from my web.config file. How can this be done?
I have an application which has a website and a project. The project contains an executable file which I'm trying to run as a process from the website's Global.asax file's application_start(). When I run this application from localhost, everything runs smoothly but when I deploy the application on IIS, application_start's code is executed and I can see the process name in the taskmanager but I cannot see the window which the console application normally starts in (when i run the application on localhost) and neither is the code executed.
Here's what I'm doing:
-- copied website and project in wwwroot -- made a virtual directory of the website -- when i run the website, I see the process in taskmanager but the code is not executed.
I am new to deployment and IIS, and would really appreciate I someone could tell me what i'm missing
I am in need of generating a PDF document (or some other type of formatted document such as an rtf) on the fly from a weg page. I am aware of components such as PDFLIb, which I currently use on a few applications, however, quite expensive. Would anyone be able to suggest another method or component to do so? I need to have good formatting capability and additionally, not have the URL's display on the page generated, whne printed.
I have the follwoing code that works in a console application but I would like to convert it to a web application. I was thinking of using a dataset. How do I go about doing so?
public static void Main() var id = AddContact(); } const string contactCompanyId = "lings"; const string firstName = "Bobby"; const string lastName = "Singh";........
Here's the situation, I've got a console application that needs to run once a day and make a few requests to pages that require authentication to view. The pages are hosted in a really basic ASP.Net Web Application.
So, I know that in order for the requests to go through successfully I have to authenticate with the server. So I've hooked up the console application to the ASP.Net Membership Provider I'm using for the web app and it successfully determines if a set of a credentials are valid. However, after calling Membership.ValidateUser() any requests I make just get the login screen. After doing some reading it seems that this is because I'm missing the important cookie information that persists my login or what-have-you.
I'm using a basic WebClient to make the requests and then reading/discarding the result.
So the meat of the question is this: Is there a simple way to validate the login information and hold on to it so that I can make the requests successfully, or is this the exact same case as the other two questions I found that require the WebClient to make a "manual" login request to the login.aspx page and try to hold on to the cookie from there?
The questions I'm referencing are:
Authenticating ASP.NET MVC user from a WPF application and Login to website and use cookie to get source for another page
I have come across some ASP.NET sites that rather than displaying a page, it launches a console-based application similar to how LiveMeeting kicks-off. I am interested in building an app that uses that feature so that I could take advantage of richer features of a console-based app, but for the life of me, I can't seem to find any info on the internet as to what type of project this would be in VS. I have tried WPF Browse Application, but thats not what I am looking for since the app type I am talking about does not run in the browser at all. The image below shows what happens when reaching the web site, which would therefore then launch the console-application (which is not even installed on the client's machine)
I have saw this done before I thought. Where you have a web application, and a debugger can output server side messages. I am trying to do something similar to this. I am not getting a Console from it though.
public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication { protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
I've got two projects: a .Net 4.0 Console Application and an Asp.Net 4.0 Website (they are in the same solution). Now I'd like to include the console application (its .exe) in the web application, because I need to run it on the server when the user clicks on a certain button.
Now I would like to include it in a way that the console application will be updated whenever I recompile the solution, so it stays up to date.
I need to access twitter API to obtain a particular company information / tweets on a daily basis. I know the company screen name / twitter unique id which is my input to the twitter API. Is it possible to get oAuth/Authentication using c# in console application? I have the Consumer key and Consumer secret ...
I have some pre-defined reports to be created in my project for which i am using sql reporting services. Reports are created and can be accessed using the URL http://localhost/reports. am asked to autogenerate the reports(some 5-6 reports) and store the reports on the d-drive folder so that the users can directly access the same instead of using the above URL. For that i created the Console application and added web reference http://localhost/reportserver/reportservice.asmx?wsdl to it.
I had a general question about extracting code from a visual studio web test. I used the "generate code" option of a web test and got the following:
[code]....
What I wanted to do is basically put this test into a separate service to run throughout the day for purposes of health checking. I basically want to make sure that users are able to log in throughout the day. What process should I use to get the test into something like a console app? I was running into issues with debugging the webtest code.
I have the following asynchronous controller actions which allows me to start a console application on a remote server. My issue is with regards to the permissions and authentication. I have tried the following, which in my understanding allows the app.Start(valuationDate) to run as the impersonated user. The reason for this is that the console application needs to access network resources and the user of this web app will have the required access rights. (As a side note, the console app runs as a scheduled task without error)
The issue I suspect is that the console app is still run under the IIS app pool identity which causes network resource "Access Denied" errors. The console application itself starts, but the restricted access of the IIS user account causes the failure.
I have tried changing the AppPool identity to run as an authorised user and the process executes correctly. I am hoping for a solution that does not require me to change the AppPool identity on the server.How can I do to start the console application using the authenticated users details?
Controller Actions:
[HttpPost] public void RunAsync(DateTime valuationDate) { AsyncManager.OutstandingOperations.Increment();[code].....

After publishing the console application. We changed few connection strings related values in the app.config file, but the values changed is not been reflected in the published version.
What might be the cause for not reflecting the values which has been changed ???
When trying to generate rdp files on a web server with C#, when I try to save the rdp file it always fails with access denied. ASPNET and Network Services has full access, and even added EVERYONE as full permissions and it still won't save?
I am using LINQ to SQL with C#. Is there a method through which we can generate entity class files from the table schema? By dragging tables onto the graphical designer classes are generated but they are not the real class files(i mean actual files with the extension cs).
I am aware of that we can code the class files first and then create the schema manually or programmatically, but i wanted to know if the reverse is possible, may be using some third-party tools. I feel it will be very convenient to use LINQ that way.
I have a web service that has a CreateReport method that generates a report based on the specified criteria.
When I call this method Synchronously using a Windows Application or Console Application, the call works fine and the report is created.
When I call this method ASynchronously (CreateReportASync) using Windows Application the report is created.
When I call this method ASynchronously (CreateReportASync) using Console Application the web service does not even get the call.
I am using VS2005 and .Net Framework 2.0. So the proxy is automatically created with the Async methods. I am not really interested the result of the method call, so I do not add a Callback Delegate.
