What is the impact if I leave the "compilation = true" in the web config file when I publish an application? Will it affect performance or have some other impact?

Does putting multiple classes in one file impact performance? Has anyone had any experience with this.
I've read various discussions around application structure and logic of where code can be found with regard to design best practice but little has been said as whether there is any negative/positive/neutral impact on performance.
I required for cookieless web app so that user cant save login-id and password in their browser. For this purpose i am using

I'm preparing to deploy a ASP.NET web application. The target server has already a previous version of my web application with parameters specified on the web.config file.
In the new version of this web application, the web.config file contains new sections I would like they appear into the target web.config file on the server.
However I can't find the way to merge the new web.config sections into the existing web.config file ?
Does I have to do it programmatically, or is there a tool to merge the both files during installation ? (I'm using Web Setup Project).
Are there any apps that can show the final configuration as applied to a particular application directory? What I'm picturing is something along the lines of FireBug's CSS viewer.
Basically, it should show the equivalent single web.config file (as if you only had one), with all the values that apply to the directory in question, with each element (or even attribute) annotated with its source (the real .config file it came from).
deploying applications into foreign environments (eg, customer sites) where they sometimes have strange configs, that add in global includes (eg, they put the include in machine.config, instead of the web.config for that app) or have allowOverride=false, etc.
I have one doubt Can we access one web.config file to another web.config file in asp.net
View 6 RepliesCurrently, I work on an ASP.NET project which is hosted under version control and is used on several developer machines, tester machine and production environment.
In three cases, configuration (Web.config) may be different. For example, developer and tester environments use testing SQL Server, whereas in production environment, another SQL Server is accessed, so the connection string is different in those cases.
We want to keep three versions of Web.config in subversion. But modifying each of three files every time we need to add, remove or change a common setting is annoying: it would be nice to have a common, master Web.config, which will be inherited by each of the three Web.config files.
How to set up an ASP.NET project which will use a master configuration file and different slave configuration files on different machines, thus sharing the same project/source code/configuration files in subversion?
When I open my ASP.NET site in IIS and try to open the .NET Trust Levels, I get an error message:
.NET Trust Levels There was an error while performing this operation.
Details:
Filename: ?C:inetpubwwwrootmyappweb.config
Line number: 445
Error: This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by default (overrideModeDefault="Deny"),or set explicitly by a location tag with overrideMode="Deny" or the legacy allowOverride="false".
I've checked a few places, but I haven't found anything that seems like it would be locking that setting. Is there a systematic way of determining where that setting is locked?

View 10 RepliesWe have windows authentication set up on our staging server for our clients to help prevent google from indexing our staging URLs. We recently found out that one of our sites is seemingly ignoring our IIS settings (anonymous authentication is disabled, windows authentication is enabled). We ended up figuring out that removing the setting runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" on the modules node (which is required for our URL rewriting on the site) fixes the issue and the windows login/password box appears as expected when we browse to the site. If we keep the setting there, the site allows any anonymous user to browse the website.How can we keep anonymous authentication off while keeping runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests set to true?
EDIT: We realized that we have other sites where this setting is on and windows authentication is working just fine. This only appears to happen in our ASPDotNetStorefront websites. I'm now wondering where I should check to see what is causing this issue - my guess is some sort of custom authentication module, but I don't have enough knowledge to figure out where to start debugging this.
I have an asp.net (3.5) web application.In one page i use an unmanaged C library (a simulator) that produces a set of results based on some input. When i've set the debug="false" in web.config (Release mode) that call will result in a System.AccessViolationException. If i am in the debugger, or at least set debug="true" in web.config, that exception will never appear.Because of the nature of the bug i placed the call inside a try-catch to log the exception and then the exception does not appear!
Is there some magical work on protected memory space when in debug mode and/or in a try-catch?
Is it possible to have separate config files for specific sections of the web.config? Specifically I'd like to move IIS 7's rewrite section out of the web.config and into it's own config file.
View 3 RepliesIt took me a little while to figure this out, but the AllowPaging="true" on the FormView seems to be the culprit. I don't have much experience paging from a FormView, but for this requirement the customers wants this kind of UI.I have a FormView with DefaultMode="Edit", which is bound to an EntityDataSource. One of the entity's properties, "ExternalID", determines whether some of the other properties in the entity are read-only. For example, if IsExternal==null, the FirstName, LastName, and Email fields should be rendered as TextBoxes. If IsExternal!=null, the 3 properties should be rendered in Label controls.
View 2 RepliesIt is known that we use web.config file to override the setting of machine.config file.
a) how come machine.config file knows that only changes made in web.config file are to be overwritten. I mean to say, if I use some other name for the config file say xyz.config, will it be able to work?
b) How does machine.config file know about web.config? Is there any link mentioned inside the machine.config file for that?
I would like to know the performance impact of using the culture invariant resources instead of culture specific ones.
For example, we plan to deploy a website and not have any en-US resources. This is because our culture invariant resources are always identical to the en-US resources.
When adding a new page or user control to an ASP.NET webforms application, the code-behind class contains an empty Page_Load() event handler:
public partial class Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
}
I have an existing web app, where many pages and controls still contain these empty event handlers (they are not used).
Question: Is there any performance impact due to these empty event handlers and should they therefore be removed from all pages and controls?
I have built an ASP.NET (.NET v4) application in VS 2010. It is working just fine. But when I try to create deployment package (so I can deploy it in our test IIS 7.5 Server), it gives me error like this,
Error 1 Could not open Source file: Could not find file 'C:11-2 estobjDebugCSAutoParameterize ransformedWeb.config'. 0 0 test
Thing is in past, I had deployed the SAME application using the SAME method.
I'm trying to find the best server architecture solution to deploy monthly updates to an Asp.net external public facing website. What I'm looking for are ways to release a new version of a website with minimal impact to users. Besides deploying the standard way (ie. stop IIS, copy new website over existing website, start IIS), what are some "better" solutions for deployment out there? It would be nice if they kept their session and didn't have to see a "Website under maintenance" message during the update. My server configuration
We have 2 IIS web servers (2003) and are trying to figure out the best way to utilize them for deployments. My first thought was to update the non-active web server with the latest release. Then to gracefully point the web traffic to that server with minimal impact to users (best case, the user doesn't lose his session). How would you go about "repointing" the web traffic from server 1 to server 2? Changing firewall NAT? Changing DNS records? Some other way?? We need to be able to test the live site immediately after we release the new changes (duh). BTW, we are using nant and cruise control to automate the builds, and a custom web service to deploy the build to production. So it's all automated with the click of a button. Could a better solution be achieved using a 3rd server? If so how?
In my project i wants to display report and export it in pdf format so that i used rdlc but now my requirement is that there are some labels like name,address for it i wants to give some specific margin from left right(x,y) and i wants to give this margin by config file.

View 1 RepliesI am encrypying my .NET config file using this command and it works just fine:
aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStrings" -app "/SampleApplication"
For this to work though I have to have a virtual directory called SampleApplication pointing to the folder my web.config file is under.
Is there a way to just specify the path to the file and not have to have a virtual dir?
I tried with
aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStrings" -location "c:FoldercontainingWebConfigFile"
but i get the error: " path attribute must be a relative virtual path". And cannot contain any of ":" "" etc...
I am looking here:
