I have built a web page that does a complex processing, and I realized recently that I need to convert it to a windows service running at the background and keeping the web page for monitoring and initiating the service.
The service will process some files, and provides information messages to the user.
I'm not sure how to implement the link between the windows service and the web site, but i was trying to avoid using MSMQ to connect both application together.
isnt there performance analysis tools that i can use to monitor and trouble shoot things like timeout expired (slow query execution)?
I mean is there a way for me to monitor the query performance as it is run from the webpage. It runs perfectly in the SMS but it's slow when it's running from the webpages so it throws Timeout expired exception.
I have a producer-consumer scenario in ASP.NET. I designed a Producer class, a Consumer class and a class for holding the shared objects and responsible for communication between Producer and Consumer, lets call it Mediator. Because I fork the execution path at start-up (in parent object) and one thread would call Producer.Start() and another thread calls Consumer.Start(), I need to pass a reference of Mediator to both Producer and Consumer (via Constructor). Mediator is a smart class which will optimize many things like length of it's inner queue but for now consider it as a circular blocking queue. Producer would enqueues new objects to Mediator until the queue gets full and then Producer would block. Consumer dequeues objects from Mediator until there's nothing in the queue. For signaling between threads, I implemented two methods in Mediator class: Wait() and Pulse(). The code is something like this:
Class Mediator { private object _locker = new object();[code]....
Inside Mediator I use this.Pulse() every time something is Enqueued or Dequeued so waiting threads would be signaled and continue their work.But I encounter deadlocks and because I have never used this kind of design for signaling threads, I'm not sure if something is wrong with the design or I'm doing something wrong elsewhere ?
When i create a Windows Service for getting information from a Web Application(ASP.NET c#) for scheduling some task in the client machine.
To consume WCF from the web application. I added WCF reference to Window Service project as a service reference, everything seems fine. It updated app.config file, added service reference etc. it was not working.
I have a web application - .net 4. The client is having a requirement that he want to send email to his users on a regular basis about his new courses etc.
The webapplication created will hosted on a "Shared hosting environment" with no excess to windows services - file system other than the web root folder through FTP.
Due to shared hosting i cannot create a windows service for him which will check the database - if there are any scheduled mail to send every 5 min.
So my question is - Is there anyway i can run a wcf web service or any other web based service or page or handler which can keep running and automatically checks the database for any new scheduled mails - if yes start sending it automatically in an different thread.
how do I launch a windows form from a web page. For instance, when you click a button the windows form should launch and the web page should continue to run in the background without the user seeing it (this is there a way to keep the web page alive after the windows form app launch)
We have a company intranet and the powers that be think it would be nice to have a collection of icons/links representing the applications that most reps use (Outlook, Excel, few other apps).
The idea would be that if the application is installed, clicking the link/icon would launch the application on the client machine.
Anyone ever had a requirement like that and been successful implementing it?
Wanted to reach out to everyone before I go back and say no.
I'm trying to hit my intranet website and get it to run a simple sql query as the windows user I'm logged in as.
When I debug through Visual Studio, everything works great. When I hit the webserver though, I get an error from sqlconnection saying, "ERROR:Login failed for user 'YOUR_DOMAINYOUR_WEBSERVER_NAME'."
Request.ServerVariables[AUTH_USER]: YOUR_DOMAINUserBob System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name: NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE Page.User.Identity.Name: YOUR_DOMAINUserBob System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity.Name: YOUR_DOMAINUserBob

so to clarify, can i play a windows media player in a webpage without having it installed? because at the moment the follwing bit of code only plays my files asfter i installed windows media player on my PC.
I have a small application which contain only a text box which is continiously reading the incoming data from serial port and displaying in the text box, i want to use this application on a webpage. how can i call this windows application on a webpage.
I have this requirements on my project and I don't know where to start. i need to create a web page using asp.net that accept parameters username and password and this page will be called by windows application, so windows app will pass username and password in order log in my web page.
I have created one windows ( user control dll ) application and try to use in Browser using following code.But I'm not able to view the windows application ( Windows application UI) in browser.
Is the above possible? Basically i need it as I am creating a site where users can upload files to a shared network drive which is secure and has a system account
When a user clicks on upload file, If possible I would like the page to automatically kind of log in with the system account, copy the files and then log off. I know I could achieve something similar mapping a drive but would prefer not to do that for these reasons;
- Security risk if the mapped drive for some reason isnt removed by the code
I set up a secured folder in my website. When I access this folder via web page, it pop up a windows login form to ask for user name and password. I would like to code the asp.net page or java script to access this secured folder with username and password without pop up the login form. find the method for asp.net page accessing the secured folder automatically.
I am hosting a Windows User Control in my web page using <object> tag. Everything works fine when the control is outside the updatepanel and is independent of other web controls but when I move the control inside the update panel, it doen't load the user control properly.
why it doesn't render the control properly and what can I do to fix it?
I tried moving the user control outside the update panel but since this user control is shown/hidden dynamically and is rendered based on other web controls which are inside an Update Panel, the user control is not shown at all.
We have two servers, both are containing a local application connecting to local web service, applications and services are identical on both servers. One of the servers work just fine, The other one is just dead, I have impression the the security configuration are different on those servers. What prevents an application X from connecting a web-service, given that another application y on the same server can connect to it. and X is a windows service. What I should check, what is chances?
I need to read the data from the COM port in a web application, so I have written a Windows Service for reading data from serial ports. Now I need to access that data in a web application. Can anyone tell me how to access it? Is using threads the best way to do this or not? What other possible ways are there?
I wanna embed the windows service in the web application. I have seen few posts in the web. where they generate separate exe for the windows service and use it as an installable.
The same process i tried doing it but it threw an OS error in my server which is windows 2000 and didnt supported the executable.
However the website of mine runs fine in the same server. Thus i was thinking if i cd embed the same code in the web application.
Also, in my case the website of mine takes job for simulation. These jobs are taken for simulation execution and nearly takes 12hrs for completion and if they are not completed within twelve hours then they are supplied extra twelve hours to complete the simulation jobs.
The simulation executables are a series of executable and bat files.
The results of the simulation gets updated in the tables of MySql and hence are displayed to the user.
