I have a asp.net mvc application.
Some pages require SSL, is there a way to mimick ssl locally through cassini or IIS 7?
Edit So I followed the directions for the answer below that linked to ScottGu's blog post.
I've searched around and found a lot of advice saying to modify the hosts file as such:
127.0.0.1 mydomainname.com
I've done that, but my actual site at mydomainname.com is still being used. Any other troubleshooting steps I could take?
For a web application I am using ASP.NET C# (OS- Windows7, .NET 4) and the task has done. But I don't know how to run it locally in Windows7 as well as in Server 2008(.NET 4 and IIS installed in server 2008). And I have to run it in both the platfrom.
View 3 RepliesThis may be obvious to many of you (hopefully!) I have a site under asp.net created using Visual Web Developer 2008 and MSSQL 2007 (all express editions)All ok so far.My PSP requires the addition of a couple of traditional ASP 'screens' to redirect payments to them. I cannot run this under VWD2008 development server as .asp are not allowed, so am looking to move to running it locally under IIS7 which is turned on.How do I alter the site to run on the IIS7 instance?

I have built a custom Ajax User Control which uses the AsyncFileUpload control released with the latest Ajax Toolkit.
On my local machine the application works fine without error, however if I deploy the app onto my web server the functionality breaks.
I am trying to add a file via the AsyncFileUpload control, save it to the web server, then save some details into a datatable which is displayed in a gridview. All of this sits in an update panel.
When uploading small files (under 55kbs) the process works fine, however when uploading larger files, it doesn't like it. The control uploads the file successfully to it (the client error is not triggered), but it breaks when I try to save it to the web server. Upon saving, the document saves OK, but all the data is stripped away. It just saves the filename with no content. It looks like the AsyncFileUpload control has lost the File in session, therefore cannot save it. However the AsysncFileUpload.filename still exists and AsyncFileUpload.HasFile is returning true.
Has anyone seen anything like this before or have any ideas why this could be happening? I have set the web config httpRuntime maxRequestLength = 20480, so it shouldnt be that.
See code:

I have created a webservice (Service.asmx) which performs a simple db update However i have encounted a limitation with the installation workstation.
Turns out that the workstation is not allowed to have web servers (IIS etc) installed onto it.
so obviously i have a problem now.
There is currently some windows application installed on the workstation that is supposed to call my webservice to perform an update.
Is there any alternatives to getting web service up on the local environment?
This my scenerio
1. I have created a web service
2. I need to host it in IIS locally for testing purpose.
3. Can we set port locally or automatically port '80' is assigned.
I need to test an ASP.NET site that requires SSL locally. I think IIS7 with the self-signing certs would do the trick, however, I am on XP.

The first one displays fine locally but not on the Web server, whereas the second one displays fine both locally and on the Web. How do I get the first to resolve like the second?

I'm writing a worker role to handle a custom built email queue. Before I get to the tricky stuff, I'm having a wee problem - I can't test my worker role locally or see any console output or anything.I'm new to ASP.NET MVC (Having shifted from Rails/Django) so I'm not entirely sure if it's even possible to run a worker role locally, or what the case may be?
View 1 RepliesI am getting this error after uploading my web app to my Rackspace box.
CS0246: The type or namespace name 'User' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
It's odd because it works fine on my local computer where I do development. The actual line of code is:
public User user = new User();
I am using C#.
I have a menu that uses a sitemap. The menu works locally, but not on the server. Below is my code for the menu, data source, and the sitemap. why I can run it locally and use the menu, but I cannot use the menu on the server?

When I deploy my web service, I get the following error:
There is no build provider registered for the extension '.svc'. You can register one in the <compilation><buildProviders> section in machine.config or web.config. Make sure is has a BuildProviderAppliesToAttribute attribute which includes the value 'Web' or 'All'.
I found one thread ([URL] that a solution but, I can not get it to work. If I make the changes to my web config file as in the thread, I then get a configuration error. One odd thing is that, if I check the machine.config file on my machine, located at C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727CONFIGmachine.config, I don't see any of the config settings described in the thread. As a matter of fact, there is no mention of "compilation" or "buildProviders" at all.
Here is my entire config file listing:

View 5 RepliesI have a new MVC3 project with one Controller called PublicController.cs which contains 4 identical methods for testing out how routing works. The only difference between them is their name, and that they each point to a different view ...

My web-server is shared hosting with netcetera, using a sub-domain for this deployment (previously had problems with MVC in virtual directories, but have full blown MVC2 apps running in sub-domains no problem). I've deployed by using the "Publish to file system" option, then copying over the files aswell as just copying the entire source project over. Both give identical results.
I have just installed the Ajax Control Toolkit (Headache that it was).Now the latest finding is that it all works fine (i.e. compiles with no errors or warnings) when the project is stored on local (C:) drive but it doesn't work when the project is stored on a mapped network (L:) drive.
(This is all in Visual Studio by the way, just the development stage. Deployment to a server a different issue all together!)So if I press F5 to run the app with the Project located on the network drive I get the following error
Warning 1 Unable to update auto-refresh reference 'ajaxcontroltoolkit.dll'. Cannot find assembly 'C:Documents and SettingscawleymLocal SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftVisualStudio9.0ProjectAssembliesol2vglxn01AjaxControlToolkit.dll'. L:Information

I am using some webrefernces for reporting services. The first time they load they are really really slow. Is there any way to reference the files locally?
View 2 RepliesI am currently building a web application that will involve many servers to get it to run efficiently. I am trying to test this web site at home and I have a few computers running the website. To connect to the website I would type this into the address bar http://192.168.0.200:8080 or I would typehttp://192.168.0.201:8080. However when I transfer my site from one computer to another the web browser can no longer read the cookies. I would like to set up a home DNS server and have the computers in my house access the site like this w1.MySite.com and w2.MySite.com instead of http://192.168.0.200:8080 or I would type http://192.168.0.201:8080 so I can test if my cookies are working accross subdomains. how to set up a local DNS server so I can do this?
View 3 RepliesWe are currently developing an ASP.NET MVC application which will be deployed on a corporate intranet, with a slightly-modified customer facing version available on the public internet.We're making use of a number of external javascript libraries (e.g. jQuery) and a discussion has come up regarding referencing the libraries - should we reference them from an external source (e.g. via the Google load jQuery method) or keep our own version locally and reference from there?The project manager is a little concerned about having a 'dependency' on Google (or whoever) if we reference from there, and thinks that having our own copy of the library makes us more independent. On the other hand, I have heard there are a number of advantages to letting someone else host the library - for example, they handle versioning for us, Google aren't going anywhere anytime soon...
(for the purpose of the discussion assume the intranet we're hosting on has external access - obviously if it turns out it doesn't the decision is very much made for us!)So. Does this matter? And if so, what should we do and why?(I appreciate this is subjective - but it would be very useful to get advice from anyone with experience or thoughts on the matter. Not sure if this is a candidate for community wiki or not, let me know if I should have put it there and I'll know for future!)
Recently got a new (used) machine and had to reinstall VS 2008 - may or may not be related. Yesterday, I opened an existing website via Source Control. I can check files in and out and make edits, but when I try to debug locally, I get a list of errors, starting with:
"Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Abstractions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
Everyone else working on this website is able to deploy it locally. Also, if I create a new website, I can debug just fine, and I used to be able to edit and debug other sites. Everything I've found by Googling this error so far has to do with MVC projects, and suggests changing the webconfig or other files. Since other people can run this, it seems it must be a problem with my software, not the code.
