I would like to start a System.Threading.Timer in my application when it launches (maybe deploy is the correct word). I have seen that you can use Application_Start() but this is only fired once the first request comes to the application. I need the timer to start as soon as the application is running so that it can check for work to process even if a user is not interacting with the site. How can I get the application to start the timer once it is up and running?
What is the right approach when users (authenticated domain admins) should be able to start batch jobs (usually exe files) from an IIS (7.x) aspx (c#) page? This is an intranet site. The batch jobs have to run on the web server as Domain Admins. The website pool is executed by network service or some similar restricted account in AD.
Approaches I can think of (and their disadvantages): 1. Start exe file with System.Diagnostics.Process.Start with another account. This feature is disabled in IIS 7.x, how do I allow it?
2. Create a sheduled task and call scheduled task-api. This unmanaged dll is giving VS compiler warnings because it's unsafe to call from managed code.
3. I suppose there's a better approach, because the previous suggestions doesn't appear safe or robust.
I am trying to register the route collection in .net based on each session. The code I have works fine, you goto website/username and it loads the correct sub pages, but you have to restart the application to goto website/username2 to load those sub pages. But when the application is restarted the second one works, but then not the first one. Is there some way to create a different route collection per session not per application using system.web.routing.
In our ASP.NET application we perform some initializations upon the Application Start event.When the application is started in visual Studio 2010 with 'Debug->Start new instance' the ASP.NET Development server does not start new, and my Application's Start event is not fired.My workaround is to manually stop the development server - is there a setting to force this automatically?
I am running Visual Studio 2010 (as Admin), IIS 7 on Windows 7 x64. I am able to run the ASP.NET web site in IIS 7 without debugging just fine, but when I press F5 to debug it, I get: Unable to start debugging on the web server. Could not start ASP.NET debugging. More information may be available by starting the project without debugging. Unfortunately the help link is not helping me much and leads down a heck of a large tree of things. I checked the following:
Security requirements — I don't recall having to do anything special before. The worker process in IIS7 is w3wp.exe. It says that if it's running as ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE I must have Administrator privileges to debug it. How do I find out if I need to change something here? Web site Property Pages > Start Options > Debuggers > ASP.NET is checked. Use custom server is set to the URL of the site (which works fine without debugging). Debugging is enabled in web.config. Application is using ASP.NET 3.5 (I want to move to 4.0 eventually but I have some migration to deal with). Application pool: Classing .NET AppPool (also tried DefaultAppPool). Surely it shouldn't be that hard to install IIS, VS, create a web site, and start testing it?
on desktop start has disappeared, getting above issue on double clicking/running any application.have VS2005 installed with sp1 and all other relevant updates as per MS..., i read some forums which states because of VC++ the system files may be currupted....have not installed VC++can anyone guide me the issue here and its solution...
I know that ASP.NET MVC has error filter attribute to handle specified error type. However, this feature cannot catch any error that occurs when application start. Therefore, I need to add some code to "Application_Error" method for handling this error like the following code.
public void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e) {// At this point we have information about the error var ctx = HttpContext.Current; var exception = ctx.Server.GetLastError(); [code]...
My asp.net application working fine but sometime it suddenly stops and cannot display a page.After restart the PC it works fine again.I am not getting whats the problem. I also restart the IIS then also it not work.
I am about to start a new application and am excited about using asp.net mvc and nhibernate. However, the big "problem" is how I handle the user authentication stuff. What are some ways those used to using nhibernate and MVC solve this problem?
My thought is let asp.net do its own thing and I do my own thing database wise. Am curios if I should role my own using the provider model and nhibernate, if I can figure out how. Or is there a way to integrate current code that is in the mvc example into nhibernate?
This function works for me but what happens is all the tabs gets loaded in the application start up itself.Which i don't want to happen. I want something like when the tab is clicked its content should get loaded.
I am developing my application in asp.net 3.5 and sql server 2005, and I want to record the visitor info into my database, like once the visitor enter my website, I'll insert his browser details to the database. [It's not necessary that visitor login my website].
Now I am confused where to put my code, If I put insert function in every page_load then on every page it will execute and I'll not be able to get the exact number of visitor, visited my website. Shall I go with application_start in Global.asax ??
I am writing an asp.net HTTP module which needs to read configuration data once from a local file (say config.xml stored in application root directory) and then based on configuration perform some processing on incoming requests.
Since there is no Application_Start/Application_init hooking available in Asp.NET modules, what would be the best way to handle the scenario. I am trying to avoid reading configuration file each time a request comes. Ideally, I want to read the config file when application starts.
I need to code this in http module only and do not want to use Global.asax
The httpmodule is used in my web application. I want to set the property in the httpmodule when my application starts and not have the overhead of setting it everytime the module is called.
The value for the application is read from my app settings in the web.config.
The httpmodule resides in a seperate dll to the web application.
So I want to inject/set the property from my web application on application start.
How can I make my application installed in my PC to start(ie., to popup for username and password) when I logged in to my PC, so that I can provide my username and password to the application and log in to it,similarly like gtalk that popsup for username and password once logged in to PC?
In our Application_Start event handler we're performing some actions that intermittently fail due to file locking issues. In this scenario we would like to return the application to an "un-started" state.By this I mean that the user will be shown an error page, and then the next time a user hits the site the Application_Start event will be fired again.
I'm trying to kick off an application within my Programs folder on my web server with this code:
[code]....
and it's not starting the application but I'm also not getting any errors back from the server. I have made sure that the asp.net user has permissions on the folder, and I can run the application on it's own and it runs fine.
Not using Cassini, but IIS7 to run an ASP.NET app.
The debug behavior is flakey. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I was able to step into the application start event in global.asax but sometimes I can't.
Sometimes VS2008 opens the published global.asax so I have two instances of global.asax opened in VS, the source and the published.
I reset the AppDomain and IIS and I can't put my finger on why this is happening.
To add, while it won't go into application start, I have an OnChangeEventHandler event - it does step into the event handler.
I have some scheduled jobs that need to be run in the Application_Start but as far as I know, this method only get triggered after the first request. Is there anyway I can just auto startup the application after I stop and start the connection in IIS or stop/start/restart the site?
does it working with it and which is the good start for TAPI.i want to create an application which automatically answer/record incoming call and also call to someone recorded message.
want this in .net (asp.net or c# desktop no problem).
I want to start a new thread to query a database while my web application continues running. I was under the impression that by using threads I can run the querying process independently while the normal web application page cycle carries on, but I could be wrong.
public class DbAsyncQuery { Dictionary<string, object> serviceResults = new Dictionary<string, object>(); public void UpdateBillingDB() { QueryAllServices(); foreach (KeyValuePair<string, object> p in serviceResults) { IEnumerable results = (IEnumerable)p.Value; IEnumerable<object> sessions = results.Cast<object>(); DbUtil.MakeBillingDBEntry(sessions, p.Key); } } public static string[] servicesToQuery = new string[] // Must go in config file ultimately { "xxx.x.xxx.xx" }; public delegate void Worker(); private Thread worker; public void InitializeThread(Worker wrk) { worker = new Thread(new ThreadStart(wrk)); worker.Start(); } public void InitializeQuery() { Worker worker = QueryAllServices; InitializeThread(worker); } private void QueryAllServices() { Dictionary<string, DateTime> lastEntries = DbUtil.GetLastEntries(); foreach (string ip in servicesToQuery) { string fullServicePath = "http://" + ip + ":800/MyWebService.asmx"; //object[] lastEntry = new object[] { lastEntries[ip] }; object[] lastEntry = new object[] { new DateTime(2011, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0) }; object obj = WebServiceHandler.CallWebService (fullServicePath, "MyWebService", "GetBillingDBEntries", lastEntry); serviceResults.Add(ip, obj); } } }
It seems to basically stall and wait to finish the query before loading the page (which can be thousands of rows, so it takes awhile). I put this in the following section of Global.asax:
This is one of my first web pages, and I'm new to threading. I understand there is a difference between creating your own thread and using the ThreadPool. In this method, I am using my own thread, I think. Not sure if that's the best way. The querying process can be completely independent, and its only going to occur on scheduled intervals (every 8 hours or so). The user doesn't need to have up to the minute data, so it can take awhile. I just don't want the site to wait for it to finish, if that's possible.
When i try to run my web application in visua studio 2008 a error window comes out that says: Unable to start program [URL]. The system cannot find the file specified. I googled but not got the solution for this problem. I have VS 2005 and VS 2008 both on my machine. I also unistalled VS 2008 and reinstalled it but that does not solve the problem.
