read the connection string in a web application from a T4 template residing in ANOTHER assembly referenced by the web application. I am generating some code from the database that it references and how to get the connection string for this use. ive read George Js example here however it only works when the template resides in the web app.
View 2 RepliesWe are experiencing some strange behaviour on one of our ASP.NET web servers (Windows 2003 64-bit). After some activity, two third-party controls are unable to run correctly. One is log4net (it does not write error messages out) and the other is a menu control (it displays eval message instead of picking up its license). The one common thread is that both controls pick up their config from external config files (linked to from web.config).
Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this or experienced this in any way. Is it related to file/folder rights? The server has been running fine for a while and just started exhibiting this behaviour. Perhaps it occurs around the time the worker processes are recycled.
I have many Connection strings in my web.config file. I also have a "dataConfiguration" setting in the same file which specifies what database my app connects to.
How do I read the "defaultDatabase" setting / section from the, see below xml file.

View 2 RepliesI need to compile a class library (DLL) from an ASP.NET source. Now when I try to build it says this:
The type
'System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize'
is defined in an assembly that is not
referenced. You must add a reference
to assembly 'System, Version=2.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.
Now I know that I have to put it in the web.config file. But there is no web.config file it's just the source of the dll that needs to be compiled.
I need to add reference to 'System.XML.dll' assembly into web.config (in order to try solution for problem, mentioned here: Problem with Extension method: IXmlLineInfo).I've tried to add the following line into "assemblies" section:
<add assembly="System.Xml, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e"/>
When I drag/drop a Chart or ReportViewer control onto my page the web.config updates with said assemblies however my website fails to load. Removing the controls and assembly tags successfully starts the website however I cannot seem to understand why the website has issues when the Chart, for instance, is loaded.
The site is live within an intranet space which was originally created in .asp however the .aspx pages I create do work with other controls such as gridviews etc.It seems altering the web.config causes issues but I just want to know how I can get the chart etc controls working?
I'd like to create a class library project where embed resources like js, css and maybe image files. I would compile it and copy the dll into the bin folder of my web site to include the resources into my pages with GetWebResourceUrl.
I tried with an assembly that have no .cs files, but it doesn't seem to work, I can't see the namespace of the assembly in the web project.
Is it possible to read the GUID from the Assembly without actually loading it in the current App Domain. Normally Assembly.Load loads the DLL into the app domain. I just want to read the value. The description of the GUID is
'The following GUID is for the ID of the typelib
' if this project is exposed to COM
<Assembly: Guid("DEDDE61CD-928E-4ACD-8C25-3B8577284819")>
The main thing is I don't want to lock the file so that there are no errors 'Another process is accessing the file' error.
I have a web site that uses the both c# and vb.net in the app_code section. The different languages are separated into their own folder and correctly configured in the web.config.
<codeSubDirectories>
<add directoryName="BasicCode"/>
<add directoryName="CSharpCode"/>
</codeSubDirectories>
This works fine 95% of the time. In production using 2 load balanced servers I sporadically receive an error message along the lines of:
"Unable to find assembly
'App_SubCode_BasicCode.xxx,
Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=netural,
PublicKeyToken=null'.
The site is hosted in IIS7 and I think it has something to do with the name of the dll assigned during dynamic compilation. I do not see this problem in a single server environment. Could this be because when the session is balanced to the second server the dynamic compiled dll name is different?
Currently, when I want to use Microsoft Chart Controls on a website, I need to add the following onto every aspx page where I want to use it:
<%@ Register Assembly="System.Web.DataVisualization, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"
Namespace="System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting" TagPrefix="asp" %>
Is there any way to move this to the web.config file, so that I don't have to put it on every page ?
A while ago when i started using VS 2005, i found that some assembly entries were automatically added to from web.config
and i was getting annoying errors. later i found i have added unneccessary references in my application. And its a feature that assembly reference are automatically added to assembly tag in Web.config, So dev don't have to worry about it.
Recently i used Interop.OWC11.dll in my application. And ^&*# got the annoying
"CS0234: The type or namespace name 'Office' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)"
error again.. Assembly entry was not added automatically. I checked same for existing references in my application, for them to automatic entries is not happening.... ? :(
I have to write is down in Web.config manually... I don't understand why?....
I have recently discovered that I am affected by this bug http://www.mail-archive.com/mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com/msg71515.html
Well,at http://www.mail-archive.com/mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com/msg71529.html they say the work around is to create a global policy assembly and redirect the assemblies that way since it is not read from the web.config.
How do you actually do what they describe there? There is a huge documentation gap in that area with Mono.Also,I can't just recompile the assembly to use the new Mono assembly versions because the assembly is closed source.(but it does work with Mono.)
I made a custom server control library that all of our websites will be using. I have registered the dll in the global web.config of our production and development servers, and everything runs fine in the browser. The only problem I have is Visual Studio/Intellisense not recognizing my control. I get the error message "Unknown server tag...", which in turn throws other validation warnings. Does anyone know how to tell Visual Studio to include dll's registered in this location? Our sites are .net 4.0 and below is an excerpt from the web.config located in %SystemDrive%WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319Config on the servers.
<pages>
<controls>
<add assembly="[assembly info]" tagPrefix="irnrControls" namespace="IRNR.Controls"/>
</controls>
</pages>
It's not that big of a deal right now as I only have one control in the dll, but I would like to fix this before I add more controls.
Edit: I can't debug the site and it fails when I try to build it. The Output window displays "Unknown server tag".
I have an asp.net 4.0 site. I have CAS turned on for legacy support. But in CAS, is there a way to prevent a runtime loaded assembly from accessing the web.config file? I don't see a permission set that denies access to configuration information.
View 1 RepliesI have a web site that was done in asp.net 2.0 along with visual studio 2005. I've recently upgraded to VS 2008 and I'm haveing an issue with the namespaces in the web.config file not registering. Specifically, references to system.web and microsoft.visualbasic.

View 4 RepliesWhen the user clicks on it, another .aspx page should pop up. I used the code below and it works fine. But when we deploy this .aspx page, the IP address of the target IIS server will be different. So I am thinking of saving the IP address of target IIS server in web.config file and load it into the Window.open method of Javascript code (below).Qusetion 1: Is that right way to do?

I'm trying to use OpenExeConfiguration to read a different config file, but I can't find any good examples.I have a windows Service and some of the config data already exists in another windows service config file on the same server, and it makes more sense to use what is already there, rather than have to maintain the same data in 2 places.
View 2 RepliesI have to duplicate some settings (like connection string) between a web.config file that a WCF host uses and a web.config file that a web client uses.
In the interest of not duplicating, can I have both the web.configs read from a separate xml file? The two web.configs can be entirely in different solutions/projects so I guess this is not possible, but wanted to get other's opinion.
PS: I do understand I can use a database to store all the config settings.
Can i read data from web.config using JQuery ?
