C# - Managing A Debug And Release Connection String
What is a good approach to managing a debug and release connection string in a .NET / SQLServer application? I have two SQL Servers, a production and a build/debug and I need a method of switching between the two when my ASP.NET application is deployed. Currently I simply store them in the web.config and comment one or the other out, however that is error prone when deploying.

What's Release Build And Debug
I have few confusions about build. What is release build and debug build? What are the output files for these builds? I had seen debug and release folders in bin folder. So the respective output goes into the respective folder? elaborate release and debug build. I dont want the difference.

Can Specify If Aspnet_compiler.exe Creates A Debug Or Release Build
I wish to compile my asp.net MVC application using aspnet_compiler.exe from the comandline to speed up cold startup. I'm wondering how it determines if it should do a release or debug build. Is it always release? Does it depend on what the web.config file says when you run aspnet_compiler.exe? What happens to an application that's been compiled w/ aspnet_compiler.exe if someone changed the debug attribute in the web.config file after it has been published?

Configuration :: Setup Debug And Release Builds On The Same IIS?
I'm on Windows Server 2008 with IIS 7.5 I have set up two web applications on the web site; one for the debug-build and one for the release-build for our system. I have not been able to figure out how to setup the two web applications so that they do not share the same native module. When I access the debug-application (http://dev1/debug) it loads "G:workspaces ewreposdebuginRXWeb.dll" and the site works fine. However, when I access the relase-application (http://dev1/release) it also loads the "G:workspacesewreposdebuginRXWeb.dll" which is not want I want. I want it to load the "G:workspacesewreposeleaseinRXWeb.dll". Apart from that the relase-application works fine, loading for example its own database, javascript-files, images and so on. I have tried many different configuration but obviously there is something I do not understand. These are the changes I have made to applicationHost.config: Under the section <globalModules> the following to rows are added at the end: <add name="RXDebug" image="g:workspaces ewreposdebuginRXWeb.dll" /> <add name="RXRelease" image="g:workspaces ewrepos eleaseinRXWeb.dll" /> The web.config for the debug-application looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration>............

Visual Studio :: References In Debug Versus Release Mode
I am developing a web site in Visual Studio 2008. I have a project for the web application and several class libraries as references. When I add the references I select the file under bin/debug in the class library folder. When changing the project to release mode the references still point to the .dll in the debug folder. Shouldn't this change automatically. How should I add the references so that debug and release are properly referenced?

Visual Studio :: Debug Configuration Will Only Build Release Configuration?
I have a windows application that was original built in vs2003 (1.1) and we have upgraded to VS2008 SP1 (2.0). We are trying to build this application in debug mode or just run it in debug mode and it continues to build it as if the configuration is Release. I have had this happens with several similar projects now and have ended up modifying the Release configuration to build with debug information but this isn't the best solution. Is there something I am missing?

Release Mode Versus Debug = "false"
I'm trying to find a definite explanation of what effect compiling in release mode has on a .Net 3.5 web application versus debug="false". So far it looks like setting debug="false" has the same effect and compiling in release mode has been depreciated but I can't find any firm evidence this is the case. This question looked promising but seems to be answering what's the difference between debug and release builds rather than release mode and debug="true": [URL] However it does link to this article: [URL] "This new compilation model makes the Configuration Manager for a web site obsolete. The only option appearing in a Visual Studio 2005 web site "project" is a Debug configuration. Don't fret - it means nothing. The web.config file now rules the school." Now that is the closest I've had to an answer and it does seem to imply that release mode has been depreciated in favor of debug="false" but I can't find any confirmation of this on MSDN or any other source. clarify this is a "Web Application Project" I am referring to. To rephrase my question slightly, if I have the following setting in web.config: <compilation defaultLanguage="c#" debug="false"> What effect (if any) does release and debug mode compile have?

What Are The Web.debug.config And Web.release.config Files For
I just upgraded to VS 2010 and MVC 2.0 and I noticed the web.config has two additional files attached to it? Are these files used to specify debug and release specific settings, so you don't clutter up the main web.config? Does it even make sense to place a connection string in the root web.config file if I have have a local and remote one in the debug and release web.configs respectively.

Making Ado.net Connection Class Or Connection String In Web.config?
I am preparing for an Access2007 db conversion at the beginning of the year and would like to know what the best process would be for connecting to the sqlserver2005 database. I have read about adding the connection string to the web.config file. I have also read about using ADO.NET and put the connection information into a class and not the web.config file. I would like to hear from others as to what you have used, are using, or plan on using for a webapp (vs2010), and why so I can get an understanding.

ADO.NET :: Connection String And DAL?
Project 1: Web Application (.aspx/.ascx/.cs/)* Project 2: Class Library (has one static class, Repository.cs, which is full of static methods used to put/get data to/from DB) Project 3: Web Service (allows few of the mthods of the Repository to be used via WebService) Conditions: There will be about 10 copies of Project 1 (WebAppliation) runngin on IIS each for a seperate client.I want each copy of Project 1, and the Web Service to read/write data from/to DB via Repository only. So all 11 Projects (10 Project 1, and 1 Wb Service, will be using repository as DAL)Questions1) Where shall i put the connection strings??? because each web application will have its own connection string, i cant save it in repository. And if i keep it at the web.config of each project, then what is the best way to pass it to repository? 2) Repository.cs is a static class with all static methods, is this a good approach? Should it be static? or should i not make it static in order to allow creationof objects of Repository.cs. (this way may be i can also send connection strings to the objects of repository, in whatever project required...???)

Getting Connection String Out Of App.config
I added a database to my project. When I did so an app.config file was added to my project. (Yes I know I have dangerous info in the connection string. I shall change that but for now I am messing around with test stuff.) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <configuration> <configSections> </configSections> <connectionStrings> <add name="NyStories.Properties.Settings.storyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=|DataDirectory|story.sdf;Password=driver;Persist Security Info=True" providerName="Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client.3.5" /> </connectionStrings> </configuration> I did a google search on how to get the connection string value and found. string sConn = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["ConnectionString"]; I am getting a warning that this is obsolete. It has been replaced by ConfigurationManager.AppSettings. Ok Fine. According to the docs, it is also in System.Confiuguration which I already have a using statement for above. But when I attempt to use it, it is not part of the assembly.

Configuration :: How Does IIS 7 Gets The Connection String
I have created a ASP.NET 4 application in VS 2010 using Silverlight and RIA Services. After finishing the first release on my development pc, I'm starting some deployment testing in a server in my local network. After sucessfully published the web application using the Visual Studio FTP publishing option, I notice two strange things: 1 - On the IIS properties of the website I have uploaded my files to, you can see now a connection string, named as LocalSqlServer that points to the aspnetdb.mdf database file. I had a look in the web.config file and I could not find this connection strind defined there. So, where is it located? Where did IIs got it from? 2 - As the aspnetdb.mdf file is not deployed withtin the web application and I a musing SQL express in my testing server, where can I drop the mdf and ldf files so they can be attached when the applicaiton runs? I know I can perform an attach operation using management studio,but I'm wandering where is the DataDirectory folder ASP.NET looks for to attach it at runtime?

Connection String Has Not Been Initialized
I am getting this error: "Connection String has not been initialized" To give you some background, I have the following: Page.aspx Page.aspx.vb MyClass.vb - Contains business logic, and SQL commands that are executed. DataAccessClass.vb - Class that handles all database related operations Basically, when I invoke a Public Shared function from MyClass.vb, sometimes it would work. On other occassions, it just would not work. I am getting the connection string value from a webservice. When my page loads, the web service is checked and the connection string value is retrieved. MyClass.vb will then invoke a function which would run an SQL command, use the data access class and get the value back to MyClass. i.e. If IsNothing(ConnectionString) then 'Get the connectionstring value again from the web service. Else If String.IsNullOrEmpty(ConnectionString) then 'Get the connectionstring value again from the web service. End If End If 'data access is executed here.... Am not sure whether the connection string is the one actually failing or another reason why. But basically, I would not be able to execute a database operation when my connection string is Nothing (or the value is string.empty.

SQL Server Connection String?
total noob question here. I'm toying around with Silverlight, and need to connect to a database. When I connect in server explorer (VS 2010) it works fine, because it's using my windows account to authenticate. However, when I start debugging the server side stuff is running on a different account (NT-SERVICE or something to that effect) which has no privileges on the SQL server. I've tried embedding my username/password like this: connectionString="Data Source=.;Initial Catalog={DATABASE};Integrated Security=True;User={DOMAIN}{USERNAME};Password={redacted}" but it doesn't seem to be working. I keep getting an error:The server did not provide a meaningful reply; this might be caused by a contract mismatch, a premature session shutdown or an internal server error.

C# - Use The Same Connection String When Using NHibernate?
I have just re-implemented an ASP.NET web application that uses NHibernate to use a session per request (using an IHttpModule). The SessionFactory is created at the start of the application using a connection string from the web.config file. The SessionFactory is then stored and sessions created and released using a thread-safe, lazy singleton. This means that if say 20 users are using the application the same user (as specified in the connection string in web.config) is used when creating any connections to the database - is this best practice? Will SQL Server Express complain about the number of connections eventually? (as connections are created and released per request this may not be a concern in practice). In my old architecture a connection was created using the user name of the current user - is there any advantage to this (perhaps if there is are security restrictions for the logins of each different user). When using a thread-safe, lazy singleton (like below) which contains the SessionFactory and manages sessions, I believe this is available site wide wide e.g. 2 users accessing the application from different PCs will use the same instance? public static NHibernateSessionManager Instance { get { return Nested.NHibernateSessionManager; } } private class Nested { static Nested() { } internal static readonly NHibernateSessionManager NHibernateSessionManager = new NHibernateSessionManager(); }

I'm able to generate the tables from the script that the Entity Frame work generates for me. I have two problems. I'm not able to generate the stored procedures from EDM. Second, I'm not able to change the connection string to the new database. Do I have to re-generate the edm from the new database that I'm trying to create?
