I have a web.config file defined in my asp.net web application. I have many different settings configured there. I have another project, this time a console application. I'd like to read several configurations from my web.config file. How can this be done?
View 1 RepliesI have an application which has a website and a project. The project contains an executable file which I'm trying to run as a process from the website's Global.asax file's application_start(). When I run this application from localhost, everything runs smoothly but when I deploy the application on IIS, application_start's code is executed and I can see the process name in the taskmanager but I cannot see the window which the console application normally starts in (when i run the application on localhost) and neither is the code executed.
Here's what I'm doing:
-- copied website and project in wwwroot
-- made a virtual directory of the website
-- when i run the website, I see the process in taskmanager but the code is not executed.
I am new to deployment and IIS, and would really appreciate I someone could tell me what i'm missing

View 10 RepliesI have some common dlls that are referenced by both a windows service application and a asp.net web application. I don't want to make separate copies of the dlls and I also don't want to put those dlls into GAC. I try to put that service application under the same root folder as the web application so that they can share the same bin folder. I am not quite sure if this will cause any problems? I did find the web application had random session timeout, but not very often. Not sure if it was caused by the shared dlls.

View 9 RepliesMy ISP recently has migrated my app to a new platform. The app has now to be parked in a root subfolder, say site1, rather than at the root.
The main page can still be accessed via [URL] is now located at /site1/default.aspx. Subfolder pages however cannot be accessed correctly anymore since the url includes now subfolder name "site1" ie
[URL]
instead of
[URL]
This of course breaks page referencing.
Despite multiple requests, I have not yet obtained an answer so far. Question: Is there a simple way to strip away string "site1" from the url, preferably at the web.config level? I know this can be done programmatically at the page level, to clean up page references (>30 pages). In addition, this could entail further compatibilty problems between the deployment version and the local development site.
I am trying to config my application to use out-of-process sessionState.
<sessionstate mode="stateserver" cookieless="false" timeout="20" sqlconnectionstring="data source=127.0.0.1;user id=<user id>;password=<password>" server="127.0.0.1" port="42424" />In my web.config I get errors for the server and port attributes, telling me that server attribute is not allowed and port attribute is not allowed.
let me know that what is the advantages / benefits of using multiple web.config files in web application

I am trying to read a normal string from the web.config file. When I try to read a string from the web.config file the application doesnt seem to read it. I set my sqlconnection string in the web.config file. It reads a sqlconnection string but not a normal string.Here is my code:
web.config file:
<applicationSettings>
<MyApplication.Settings>
<setting name="Colour" serializeAs="String">
<value> "Red"</value>
</setting>

</applicationSettings
This is how I try to call the setting:
string strColour = Properties.Settings.Default.Colour;

I have the follwoing code that works in a console application but I would like to convert it to a web application. I was thinking of using a dataset. How do I go about doing so?

const string firstName = "Bobby";
const string lastName = "Singh";........
Here's the situation, I've got a console application that needs to run once a day and make a few requests to pages that require authentication to view. The pages are hosted in a really basic ASP.Net Web Application.
So, I know that in order for the requests to go through successfully I have to authenticate with the server. So I've hooked up the console application to the ASP.Net Membership Provider I'm using for the web app and it successfully determines if a set of a credentials are valid. However, after calling Membership.ValidateUser() any requests I make just get the login screen. After doing some reading it seems that this is because I'm missing the important cookie information that persists my login or what-have-you.
I'm using a basic WebClient to make the requests and then reading/discarding the result.
So the meat of the question is this: Is there a simple way to validate the login information and hold on to it so that I can make the requests successfully, or is this the exact same case as the other two questions I found that require the WebClient to make a "manual" login request to the login.aspx page and try to hold on to the cookie from there?
The questions I'm referencing are:
Authenticating ASP.NET MVC user from a WPF application and Login to website and use cookie to get source for another page
I have come across some ASP.NET sites that rather than displaying a page, it launches a console-based application similar to how LiveMeeting kicks-off. I am interested in building an app that uses that feature so that I could take advantage of richer features of a console-based app, but for the life of me, I can't seem to find any info on the internet as to what type of project this would be in VS. I have tried WPF Browse Application, but thats not what I am looking for since the app type I am talking about does not run in the browser at all. The image below shows what happens when reaching the web site, which would therefore then launch the console-application (which is not even installed on the client's machine)

I need to get data from a database and I need to spit out this data in html formatk using my command line app. For this I am planning to use some sort of template-engine. I was wondering if there is anything in .NET that can do this for me?
The best option would be if I could reuse the asp.net mvc template engine (razor) in my app, this way I should not need to reinvent the wheel.
I have saw this done before I thought. Where you have a web application, and a debugger can output server side messages. I am trying to do something similar to this. I am not getting a Console from it though.

I've got two projects: a .Net 4.0 Console Application and an Asp.Net 4.0 Website (they are in the same solution). Now I'd like to include the console application (its .exe) in the web application, because I need to run it on the server when the user clicks on a certain button.
Now I would like to include it in a way that the console application will be updated whenever I recompile the solution, so it stays up to date.
So... how can I include my .exe in my web app?

View 1 RepliesI have some pre-defined reports to be created in my project for which i am using sql reporting services. Reports are created and can be accessed using the URL http://localhost/reports. am asked to autogenerate the reports(some 5-6 reports) and store the reports on the d-drive folder so that the users can directly access the same instead of using the above URL. For that i created the Console application and added web reference http://localhost/reportserver/reportservice.asmx?wsdl

I had a general question about extracting code from a visual studio web test. I used the "generate code" option of a web test and got the following:
[code]....
What I wanted to do is basically put this test into a separate service to run throughout the day for purposes of health checking. I basically want to make sure that users are able to log in throughout the day. What process should I use to get the test into something like a console app? I was running into issues with debugging the webtest code.
I have the following asynchronous controller actions which allows me to start a console application on a remote server. My issue is with regards to the permissions and authentication. I have tried the following, which in my understanding allows the app.Start(valuationDate) to run as the impersonated user. The reason for this is that the console application needs to access network resources and the user of this web app will have the required access rights. (As a side note, the console app runs as a scheduled task without error)
The issue I suspect is that the console app is still run under the IIS app pool identity which causes network resource "Access Denied" errors. The console application itself starts, but the restricted access of the IIS user account causes the failure.
I have tried changing the AppPool identity to run as an authorised user and the process executes correctly. I am hoping for a solution that does not require me to change the AppPool identity on the server.How can I do to start the console application using the authenticated users details?
Controller Actions:
