C# - How To Invoke A Windows Scheduled Task Or A Batch File On A Server Different To The IIS Server
Sep 7, 2010
I have a asp.net web site, I would like a page on that site to be able to invoke a Windows Scheduled task or a batch file on a server different to the IIS server?
I have a windows shared hosting and i need to run some scheduled c# executable every day for create sitemap, send newsletter,etc...The provider tell me that i can't run executable for security reason.Whay can i do?The provider suggest me to buy a VPS, but do not think it makes sense to spend more money just to run some scheduled task.
i want to develop a custom scheduler using asp.net C# to invoke the Task scheduler in windows. I want to create a windows form application to simulate windows scheduler.What should i know before i start this project. I have enough experience on asp.net, C# but not on the web service, scheduling side.
I am creating an intranet application which runs a batch file and create an xml file as result. Which i am using for further processing. My problem is when i am running my application from local machine batch file is running fine and creating xml,but when i am running it through iis nohting is happening,
it meance process.start coudn't start command Prompt.
I am using following code. I have given all permission to iis.
Dim ProcessInfo As Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo ProcessInfo = New Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe", "/C " + Server.MapPath("~myScript.bat")) Dim Process As New Diagnostics.Process ProcessInfo.CreateNoWindow = False ProcessInfo.UseShellExecute = False
Im about to develop a site which will need 2 types of email function: the first will be simple enough, just a realtime email using system.net.mail when certain conditions are met in the underlying DB. the second is to send out an email at the end of each day covering everything that happened during the day. WOuld that have to be set up as a scheduled task?
I have a batch file on another server on a different domain or network that I need to run from an ASP page. I found a simple enough script that opens a CMD prompt, goes to the location of the batch and runs it. If everything is on the same machine, it runs fine.
The issue I've run into now is that the batch file is on a file server and the ASP page is on a IIS server. The File server is on a internal network (separate domain) and the IIS server is on an external network (or different domain), both servers are hosted here.
When I try it and look at the event logs I can see a failure audit and its trying to login with the machine name.
I have to open a batch file automatically in sql. So i have used the below command.EXECUTE master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'D:Databasesatch123.bat'Its worked for few times. After that its not working.One time i have stopped before the process is complete.May be this is the issue.Now its returns null value.

i have made one web site which is generating screensaver(MSI) dynamically.So to generate the MSI file i have to build a WIX project.So i executed using batch file which will use MSBuild.exe and cmd prompt. so its gave me an error "Access is Denied". i have also tried by making a windiws service but still the same error occurs.

I am trying to run an aspx file on my server windows 2003 with IIS 6.0. I get the following error. Server Error in '/' Application. Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".
[Code]....
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

in my ASP.NET applicaton I have ftpdata folder, where is MS Access 2010 somename.accdb file. On my local computer (Win XP), there is no problem to connect with OleDb to this file and read write datas into and from tables. But on server (Windows Server 2008), I cannot connect to the same file like on localhost.
I have a function which performs a series of time-consuming operations which include querying a large database, customising an excel file and sending an email with a 5MB attachment.
I would like to excute this function in the background, when a button is clicked, and immediately redirect the user to another aspx page. The user should be free to browse to other pages or even close the browser when the background operation is still running on the server. I have tried to implement threading but could not get it to work. The email with attachment does not get sent even though there are no errors.
When the user selects the list of files from a page and hit's download selected, then a post back happens to server and starts zipping on the server. This works great until we hit the timeout on the page ( which is default to 90 seconds ) and just returns the process to the page even though the backend process is still zipping. Is it possible to show the size of zip file when the file is being zipped instead of waiting till the end to provide the download link?
I am running a web-site with simple .aspx files on a standalone workgroup Windows Server 2008 called 'Max'.I had assumed that the .aspx files were accessed by the 'Network Service' account.The application pool for the website is running with 'Network Service' as the process account.I was puzzled, since 'Network Service' had no permission on these files. So I added event level auditing to the files, and I was suprised to learn that the .aspx files were being accessed by an account called Max$ (ie the computer account).this correct ?Why is the Network Service account not being used ??
