C# - Reading From The Registry?
Apr 28, 2010
I have a Library ( DLL ) that has a method with the following:
var masterKey =
Registry.
LocalMachine.
OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dynamics\5.0\");
When running this method in an WinForms applicaiton, masterKey is not null and when running this in asp.net masterKey is null!
I've checked the executing user with WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name and the same user is executing both applications. The asp.net application is executed in visual studio ( debug: F5 ) and so is the WinForms application. I've set the permissions to none what so ever and this gives me "Access Denied". And when I add the group Users I get null. Which would mean that I can fold up the strucutre and see that it's there, but I cannot access the keys/entried.

I know this is probably a pretty easy thing to do and it is if I can upload the file and store it onto the hard drive of the server. What I need to do is read the text file into memory and then parse through it one line at a time. Anyone have any code that demonstrates that?

I have a really strange issue. I'm using the following code to retrieve the current user name from the registry:

For some reason it isn't returning the actual value stored. Instead of returning something like CSS it's returning administrator everytime.

Is there any other place that makes sense to store credentials for third party APIs that you use to make API calls for Facebook, PayPal, etc.? I'm tempted to store sets of credentials (Sandbox, Live), etc. in my web.config and the in a Profile.cs class create a couple methods to go out and populate the profile custom object's properties with the values from my web.config based on an enum that holds the type of Profile account I want to get details for.
So for example I have an enum for PayPal called PayPalProfileType that has value ExpressCheckoutSandbox and ExpressCheckoutLive
In the constructor I'm passing in one of these values then calling a method SetSandboxValues() or SetLiveValues() dependong in what value was passed into my constructor. The SetSandBoxValues for example would set my Profile.cs's properties like ApiUserName, ApiPassword, ApiSignature with the values grabbed from my web.config in a section that has all sandbox values in my web.config.

I have a .Net web service which is being relocated onto a Windows 7 machine running IIS 7.I have set up an application under the default web site and pointed it to the correct location, however when I try to execute a call to the web service, I get a message as follows:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.ArgumentException: Registry SubKey softwareardexconnections.net not found.
In the past when I had this error, all that has been required to fix it is to set the permissions on that registry sub key to allow read access to the anonymous IIS user. I have given the Everyone group Full Control of this sub key in an attempt to get it working but I still get the same error.This is my first experience with Windows 7 and IIS 7 and it seems quite a bit has changed, so I'm probably missing something.

the more i read about pattern the more i get confused!
In particular i'm trying to get the relationship between Registry and Repository.
Is it correct to say that a possible implementation of a Registry uses a Factory to return an appropriate Repository which, in turns, uses an underline DataMapper to performe the CRUD operations against a database?
If no, which kind of relationship exists between repository and registry ?

I hosted a webservice in my Windows7 machine. and i got the exception as given:
Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the registry key 'Global' is denied.
ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.
To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.
Even after i have given permission as Everyone the above issue still eexist..

One day I was developing my MVC app in Visual Studio 2010 and my computer crashed (flaky hardware - now fixed).But ever since then,in my app,whenever I have a view page or control editor up, the <%@ Page ... %> statement was squigley-underlined in blue with an tool-tip error message like:
/.../page.aspx: ASP.NET runtime error: Could not load file or assembly 'StructureMap, Version=2.6.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=xxxxxxxxxxxx' or one of its dependencies. The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT:0x80070057 E_INVALIDARG))
I deleted and re-added the reference to StructureMap in the References in the solution explorer,deleted and re-copied the actual StructureMap DLL, but the error doesn't go-away.I deleted the output directories and rebuilt,but still have the problem.
The application still builds and runs okay, but while in the editor, though I continue to have IntelliSense for the HTML stuff,for any C# code inside <% %>'s, the IntelliSense is gone.
If I copy the application tree to another disk or directory,or rename the root directory to a different name,the problem goes away.But if I use the same name or disk,the problem appears.Maybe it's some corrupted registry entry?

the problem in a nutshell:running plink(with specific arguments) works from cmd, but not from asp.net
the command being executed:"C:Program Files (x86)PuTTYplink.exe" -batch abc@xyz ./fake_email.sh from cmd, the command executes correctly,with fake_email.sh returning "0". from asp.net i get the following error:
The server's host key is not cached in the registry.You have no guarantee that the server is the computer you think it is.The server's rsa2 key fingerprint is:
ssh-rsa 2048 sequence Connection abandoned.i think it has something to do with the user(which .net uses to start a process) not being able to "see" the key which pageant is making available.i am running cmd as administrator.

but when I tried to add the service reference to the silverlight app, the Add Service Reference window would show me that there was a service file, but the node wouldn't expand to show the rest of the files that contain the services and what not. I got this error instead:
"An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately."
"Parser Error Message:There is no service behavior named 'AdventureWorks_WebServer.Service1Behavior'."
