We have about 70 sites on our server that use same application (with different Application Pools) and they use for example a shared skin file. So is there a way to load this file to memory and share for all applications? what I mean is to sharing cache in multiple websites to decrease pressure on server.
View 3 RepliesThere is a website with a master-page, set of css-files,... menus. It is necessary to implement another one that will have same (or at least very similar) look-and-feel. And also it is necessary to have look-and-feel in sync.
I've tried to find for appropriate solution (at least idea, not implementation) in the internet but didn't find anything.
use an additional project (class library) that will contain an implementation of the master-page and all its comnponents (menus, images, css, etc will be stored as resources), this project will be refferenced from all web-sites that need to sare look-and-feel.
I have two web applications which need to show products' images, but how to let them share the images?
for example, I have websites with urls: [URL]
how could I upload images, store them and share with this two websites?
I have two urls that are supposed to lead to the same actual folder.
I can't do a redirect because the websites are built so they question the URL and perform accordingly.
So I built two application in the IIS (I tried using a virtual directory for one of them, but I kept crashing on the web.config can not be read). Everything works perfectly except the Application variables which are different between the two addresses. (Specificly I'm counting the number of current users logged on).
I am getting some memory issues, not entirely sure but does anyone think this could be the issue.On the itemdatabound event the following code runs, and it calls a shared class method Return Image which resizes the original image. Could the coding be the issue for the memory problem. There are about 10 or so items.
If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item Or e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then
Dim ImgProfile As Image

Imagine a website where individual clients can see each-other's presence - like a social network or a chatroom.
For example:
Client1 connects to my website.The back-end C# code updates a static field to indicate Client1's presence.
Client2 connects to my website.Will the back-end C# code for the second request see the information stored in the static field from the first request? Is there anything I need to do to guarantee that these seperate instances of my ASP application are sharing static data?
I have a page on which I placed a user control. In this page I create an object ("FilterState") that maintains some state information. There are controls on the page which alter and read the FilterState, and the user control needs to be able to alter and read this same instance of FilterState. Meaning that there is code inside the user control that needs to refer to this object and manipulate it.I'm stuck on how to share the same instance between the page controls and this user control.
If I declare a FilterState object as a property of my user control, and set this property value to the instance I created in the page code behind, I'm assuming that it's really just getting a copy of it.
we are working on a portal which will have multiple websites sites loaded in same container meaning there will be a
1)Top Header showing Portals name and currently loaded app's name
2)left hand side frame having menu which will list applications which are independent of one another.Each of these application is hosted on different servers sharing same DNS name for ex .
i) [URl]
ii) [URl]
3) Righ hand frame ::this is very individual applications pages will load with there own submenu.
Now top header and left hand side menu are common across the applications while the contents in right hand frame will application specific. How can I achieve this using master page ,without requiring indivdual application to have same master page copied in there virtual directory
We have about 50 web-sites, running in different application pools, that read from a common cache database (using Microsoft Enterprise Library Caching application block). We currently have a console application which populates the cache at 3AM every morning. However, we want to get rid of this application and get the cache to automatically refresh expired items, using the ICacheItemRefreshAction interface.
We were going to create our cache object in the Global.asax of each of the 50 web-sites. However, my concern is that if we set a cache-expiration policy in Global.asax, that each of the 50 web-sites will trigger a refresh action, causing the data to be re-cached 50 times. We don't want only 1 web-site to set the expiration policies, as then the 49 other web-sites will have a dependency on that 1 web-site, and that's an architecture no-no.
There are existing questions that pertain to this subject, but I feel my case may be slightly different(correct me if i'm wrong).
I have two web sites that are almost identical as far as graphics go. They will need only to have a different logo. Additionally I have set up the database so that products can be flagged to show up on either or, or both web sites. Is it possible to set up IIS to point the second web site to the first web site and then have my code determine which domain the request is coming from?
For instance, web site 1 will have domain www.myfirstwebsite.com and the second web site will have a domain like www.mysecondwebsite.com.
If I did go this route I'm guessing I would check in the master page code behinds Page_Load event for the domain and then when I want to display products on my front end I can reference against the variable in the master page.
I was wondering about the best MVC practices for handling multiple websites from one MVC codebase. The functitonallity will pretty much be the same on all five sites, with most differences coming from styling/branding. Is it possible to dynamically set a Masterpage in MVC ? Should this even be attempted? Can everything get handled cleverly with routing?
View 2 RepliesI have 3 web.configs and 1 web project. I compile it once, and when deploy it, all I do is copy the correct web.config to the correct directory.
This is too complicate to maintain, when I have web.config change I must change all the three.
So, what I want is to keep only one web.config file, for all three websites.
In order of doing so, I have created a new settings.xml file, and I wish to read everything from there instead of te web.config file.
to my questions:
1. I need to remove ConnectionString from web.config to the settings.xml file. How do I change the providers connection string programatically?
[Code]....
Seems like moving the connection string to a different file might be a difficult task:)
2. How programatically can I do what I did on the web.config easily:

I am currently working on a project which involves three different websites with a lot of common functionality. At the moment the common functionality is placed in a different website full of user controls.
The problem is sharing the user controls across the multiple websites. Looking around on SO and other websites, the only solution seems the be using virtual directories. As this is a workable solution (we us this at the moment) it doesn't seem as a "clean" solution.
Which "best practices" exist on sharing common functionality (including the GUI/HTML) between different site?
Is it (for example) possible to create a single Web Application project and deploy subdirectories (each with their own web.config) to different production environments?
I'm trying to plan a series of websites that all share many of the resources such as css/jscript/images/content etc. For this reason I wanted to run all of the websites under the same application and IIS profile, but depending on the URL being used change the masterpage and theme/skin.
The ASP.NET membership database seems as if it was designed with this goal in mind because it allows you to setup multiple applications, however I believe the purpose for which this was built was to allow applications to be run under virtual directories/fodlers, not on seperate urls.
I have a IIS server in my company which runs our intranet application, We assigned one static IP to it in order to access through internet. when we to mapped our application address eg : http://ip/applicationname to one host name, after loading when i try to access any page it was again showing ip address instead of my host name. When I check with my ISP, he told me that to resolve this either you have to put your application folder in root directory(directly in Inetput/wwwroot) or you have to create sub domain, when I put all my fies to root directory it is working well, but , I found that for all other application which i put the folders inside wwroot are taking the config file from root, how can i resolve it... or just explain me how to configure subdomain in my server to solve this issue....
View 1 RepliesI just upgraded to windows 4G hosting from old windows hosting on Godaddy. I have hosted multiple websites on this hosting account. The primary domain website [URL] is working fine after the upgrade but all other sites hosted in same account report some errors.
The structure is like this:
Root: inHouseRecipes.com
Root/s/Website1
Root/s/Website2
I have checked that the websites in subfolders are set up as an application in IIS 7. Also, the web.config of parent (root) website has the following
<location
path="."
inheritInChildApplications="false"
>
tag to stop other child web.config to inherit anything from parent.
I use asp.net to code my websites. Before 4G upgrade everything used to work like a charm.
Has anybody else also experiences the same issues? If yes, what are the changes that we need to make to support multiple web sites in same 4G hosting account?
Can multiple SSRS share the same DB? We're getting into an SSRS customization scenario, which may adversely affect our existing SSRS features, and I wanted to see if it was possible.
View 1 RepliesWe have a web application that is storiing all site data in HttpRuntime.Cache. We now need to deploy the application across 2 load balanced web servers. This being the case, each web server will have its own cache, which is not ideal because if a user requests data from webserver1 it will be cached, but there next request might go to webserver2, and the data that their previous request cached won't be available. Is it possible to use a shared-cache provider to share the HttpRuntime.Cache between the two web servers or to replecate the cache between them, so that the same cache will be available on both web servers?
View 4 RepliesI've used the table at the top of this article as a reference. I have three questions:
1 - Can multiple users (from different physical locations) ever share an HttpApplication instance? If so, does this happen by default?
2 - Can multiple users (from different physical locations) ever share an HttpApplicationState instance? If so, does this happen by default?
3 - Can multiple users of an ASP.NET application ever share a singleton instance or a static variable value? If so, does this happen by default?

View 6 RepliesI have a bunch of EC2 servers that are load balanced. Some of the servers are not sharing session, and users keep getting logged in and out. How can I make all the server share the one session, possibly even using a partitionresolver solution

I created a mixed mode authentication mechanism based on a few of the articles that I have read on this topic. It's similar to something like this: [URL]
Basically, there are two web applications. One accepts the Windows Auth and one accepts Forms Auth. The Windows Auth then creates a forms auth ticket and passes control to the Forms auth application. This solution works fine when both applications are housed within the same IIS web site.
Now, order to control the security of this solution we set up multiple IIS web sites on the same machine. Web Site 1 serves external traffic (forms auth) and Web Site 2 serves internal traffic (windows auth).
So the design is that an internal user can hit the site using Windows auth via a internal name (myserver) while the external users use Forms Auth hitting [URL].
All that said, the solution works when the two applications are in the same site. Doesn't work when they are in different sites.
Now, I've refactored my code to have a data layer, business layer and the main project as the view layer. Next I'd like to split this big project smaller projects based on discrete functionality. As I understand it, one way to handle a shared masterpage is to copy it into each project, that's not the worst thing, it hasn't changed in over a year and if it does it's easy enough to propagate the changes out to the other projects.
I was also reading that I could create an assembly from my master page and share it that way. My masterpage.aspx has a reference to a asp.net sitemap, Unlike the masterpage I'd like to maintain only one site map if possible.
