We store backup archives in subfolders of a folder on one of the server's external USB drive. I would like to have an ASP.NET app read the contents of this folder so the manager can view the backup files to confirm backups are working and optionally delete these backup files when an old drive is reconnected so it can be used for the next weeks backups.
This backup folder is oubviously outside the server's webroot. Is there some way I can grant authority so the ASP.Net app can access this folder for this purpose? I would be using VS Web Express, so can't create any signed packages and such.
i use several exes for my asp.net prj. they include ffmpeg and imagemagik. I know i can easily put this in my path but i may want to switch between different version in different builds.

I have an application where I export some crystal reports to a shared folder like:
Code:
Dim ReportFilePath As String = "XXXXXAutoLoad ReportsReports"
DiskOpts.DiskFileName = ReportFilePath & "" & ReportName
myCrystalReport1.ExportOptions.DestinationOptions = DiskOpts
myCrystalReport1.Export()
My question is: I looks it uses the machine account to access this folder like:
domainvgiwpw03-xxx$ (name of the server is vgiwpw03-xxx2).
Is there a way to programmatically specify which account to use accessing the shared folder? We do not like to use machine accounts as this may change if we switch servers etc.

View 1 RepliesI have several ASP.NET web projects and their Output folder are set to "C:Builds[ProjectName]bin" (instead of the default "bin" folder). This makes "F5" Debugging not working because the ASP.NET Development Server expects the "bin" folder under the project folder.
I then changed to use Local IIS Web server (http://localhost/webproject1") and manually updated the vdir physical path to my custom output path. However the VS2010 will not load the csproj because it detects the url is already mapped to a different folder location.
I know I probably shouldn't change the Output folder. But wondering if there is an easy way to workaround this? The goal is to make "F5" debugging work with custom build Output folders.

I have put all the webforms to do with Account Login and Update into their own separate folder. The folder is called { Account } in the application root.

This image file path breaks when I view the pages inside the Account Folder:

I understand why it is happening, but I can't figure out how to avoid this problem, unless I put the Master page along with all the other files into a folder too.
