View 1 Repliesi have a web application in which i have a emailing module. in which i am currently using gmail smtp host but i need to allow any or all smtp host account to be used for sending emails like yahoo , hotmail etc.
for sending a mail i need to have port no , .Host, and .EnableSsl there r many many smtp host used for emailing . how do i configure my emailing modue to accomodate all the possible smtp host and set their host , port & enable ss1 so that any one using the emailing module can set their smtp host and use the module for emailing
When I first published my site, I tested it using my gmail account and worked like a charm first try (a rare feat for me ;) ). Now, I'd like to finish it up by having it send the emails from the account at the host. No joy... I asked the host if I had misunderstood the rather unhelpful info in the control panel and they advised that in my web config I should change:

I want to send email thought asp.net page for that I need to find SMTP Host and port number below is my code
Dim EMail As New MailMessage
EMail.From = New MailAddress(Emailtaxebox.Text)
EMail.[To].Add(New MailAddress("sa@gmail.com"))
EMail.Subject = Firstnametextbox.Text + lastnametextbox.Text + "Registerd"
EMail.Body = " This is content "
EMail.IsBodyHtml = True

how to find SMTP port and host name ? I used default one its gives me error.No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
{"Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host."}
I get the above error when sending email...
Firstly, I'm a newbie to ASP.net, but have around ten years of ('classic') ASP and VB6 experience.I have spent the last 12 hours or so googling for a solution to this problem, so it's nothing obvious (to myself or anyone else I can find talking about it, at least). Things I have ruled out so far include:1) Lack of SMTP server (fixed)2) Firewall issues3) Web.config <mailsettings> directivesI am developing my app locally (VS-2010, Windows 7 Premium ). When I kick off my application containing a form with the PasswordRecovery control in it, and run the password recovery control, I get the error:
[Code]....
This I figured is because I am running Windows 7, which doesn't have IIS7.5 (and thus an SMTP server) running by default. So I enabled IIS 7.5 in component settings, and lo and behold there it was. However there was no SMTP server included (those kind folk at Microsoft like to randomly remove things in system upgrades).So I dug around and installed a free smtp mailserver "hMailServer", and set it up with a the relay mail server address I use with my O2 email, with default credentials.I ran the test and it confirmed that I was indeed reaching the server OK. It also said I could therefore reference Localhost as my smtp server.I also realised I was missing the web.config <mailsettings> directives, so included (under <system.net> <mailsettings>):
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from ="zenid@here.com">
<network host="localhost" defaultCredentials="true" port="20" />
</smtp>

anyone knows any web service of that kind which is easy to integrate with asp.net?

View 4 RepliesThe reason i need to do this is because of Facebook Connect - which is another story, so i'll save you the drama for that. =) Anyway, i have this function that runs on window.onload:
function userAuth() {
SomeFunctionWhichGetsFacebookCookes();
if (!loggedInUsingFormsAuth && loggedInViaFacebook) {
window.location.reload(); // refresh page, so i can perform auto-login
}
}
So, i need help in getting the flag "loggedInUsingFormsAuth". I dont care what is in the cookie, just need to know if the current user is authenticated. Why am i doing this? Well, on window load, if the user is logged into Facebook but not on my website (according to the Forms Authentication cookie), i want to reload the page - which allows my ASP.NET website to read the Facebook cookies in the HttpContext and log the user in. I need to do this in JavaScript, because i dont have the Facebook cookies until i call "SomeFunctionWhichGetsFacebookCookies" - which can only be done in JavaScript.
So, how can i work out if the current user is authenticated via JavaScript? Do i have to manually traverse through the cookies, find the one i want, and inspect it? Is this a safe thing to do? Or should i alternatively write out the flag to the client from the server using RegisterClientScript?
I have a gridview , and I made a template column with a checkbox inside.
Then , obviously , I want to check the value of checkboxes .
I'm trying to set rows' visible property to false when that row's checkbox is unselected.
I'm always getting null , no matter what I do .
So , it must be a problem with the FindControl() , but I think it is perfectly normal .

I want to check the status code for a web url without using the IP address as I have many websites configured with the same IP and only hostname is different for them. The HttpWebRequest resolves the IP Address and use it.
View 2 Repliesbit of code on page laod that checks a server status and then writes the status out to a label text. This works great, but i need to make this a bit more dynamic.I need to establish a way that the service status is monitorered every few seconds to see if it stops.here is my code so far:

We are building an extranet loan status check website using ASP.NET MVC with a WCF backend. Its a pretty standard design with the MVC site using a WCF service reference to get customer objects. The ervice uses an Oracle backend + http binding, and won't be hosted on the same server as the MVC site (so we can't use tcp binding to reduce latency).
The problem we encountered is that every call to the service is resulting in a 7-8s response time which is unacceptable for an extranet site and much higher than the 2s magic mark. The service method(s) call 12 stored procedures to create the customer object. The database is, unfortunately, denormalized (we can't change it as its also used by other inhouse production systems) so most of the calls are basic select statements which populate the customer object and its associated objects. The service proxy is properly opened and closed/disposed in the MVC actions so there are no instances of any service connection leaks. A new client proxy is created for every request (i.e., we are not using the singleton pattern for the service). how we can speed this up ?
I have a table with three columns (ProdID,ProdName,Status). I m fetching that into a dataSet and binding that to my gridview. I have a very basic and simple rowdatabound event like this :
[code]....
how can i compare my status against True or False in my if condition.
I was googling around about 2 days now and i cant find a single script to check a specified server's status Example google.com:80.
I can find only the PHP version of it.
The question: Is it possible to configure multiple SMTP servers or update the SMTP object server information at runtime?
Description of problem: The site I'm working on has a few pages which send emails. Our site is using Gmail so even though it's a custom domain our email is sent out though Gmail SMTP servers.
Some emails come from the system and some emails come from users in certain groups. I have an SMTP server configured with the admin email for the system e.g. admin@mysite.com This works fine and when I get the email it shows from admin@mysite.comOne of our user groups let's call it "groupA" has an email configured on our domain i.e. groupA@mysite.com When I send the email and specify a from address for the MailMessage object as groupA@mysite.com it still shows up in my outlook as coming from admin@mysite.com I did a little further testing and if I specify both the from address and the ReplyTo as groupA@mysite.com it will show as From=admin@mysite.com but when I choose reply in outlook it shows groupA@mysite.com My best guess is that Gmail is overwriting the From address with the SMTP user to prevent email spoofing.
I found this: http://www.systemnetmail.com/faq/4.1.aspx but it won't work for me since group A, B, and C all need to send emails from the same page.
Many web applications use sessions to check the logged in status of the users. Is there a better approach to check the logged in status instead of using session state?
I'm looking at a pure ReSTful approach where is no session state at all. This may make more sense in an mvc application rather than an asp.net application.
My kind webhost (1and1) royally asked me to go elsewhere to do something like this.
I have 2 sites. One of them was developed by a .Net programmer. Now I am contracted to implement a PHP site and fetch data from the .Net site.
There is an ASP.Net form that a customer fills and when they hit submit, the data gets stored in SQL Server DB. How do I also store the same data in MySQL parallelly? I cannot directly use some database connectors with ASP.Net since MySQL connectivity is not supported on 1and1 Windows hosting (biz account, no less!).
What I thought of is to publish an RSS feed of entries in ASP.Net site and routinely scrape that data into MySQL on Linux host. It is an overkill, I know. Not efficient.
I have one IIS entry with AppPool integrated mode. There are 5 or more host headers assigned. The application pulls data based on the host name from Request.Url.Host. When I have 2 or more sites open at the same time the value of the Request.Url.Host is the same across all the sites. About every 30 seconds it resets itself to the correct value from the last request and shows that value on the other sites. So ultimately the sites are loading the same data. The value in the HOST server variable is incorrect as well.
View 1 RepliesI'm writing an HTTP handler in ASP.NET 4.0 and IIS7 and I need to generate a file-not-found condition.
I copied the following code from Mathew McDonald's new book, Pro ASP.Net 4 in C# 2010. (The response variable is an instance of the current HttpResponse.)
response.Status = "File not found";
response.StatusCode = 404;
However, I found that the first line generates the run-time error HTTP status string is not valid.
If, instead of the lines above, I use the following:
response.Status = "404 Not found";
Then everything seems to work fine. In fact, I even see that response.StatusCode is set to 404 automatically.
My problem is that I don't want this to fail on the production server. So I'd feel much better if I could understand the "correct" way to accomplish this. Why did the first approach work for Mathew McDonald but not for me? And is the second approach always going to be reliable?
i am developing an online mmorpg game . so speed is very important . i have a complex map system which is coded by me . at this map system for walking i am using ajax . using iis 7.5 and netframework 3.5 .
at this page you can use w,a,s,d or keyboard arrow keys for walking [URL] ( username : test1234 , password : test1234 )
as you can see at image below when a player pushes the movement buttons faster ( without waiting to move completed ) status being aborted so it really prevents walking faster i want to prevent this is from happening ( disable buttons to be pushed so fast until post event completed )
