The ASP.NET application that I am currently responsible for at my day job has hit its limit in terms of its ability to scale inside a single server. Obviously we are working toward moving session out of process and the test and hopefully deploy date draws near. I would like to draw on the experiencies of people using the built in load ba...
I changed the MembershipProvider in my ASP.net MVC website, and now the stylesheet for the login page isn't referenced correctly. Below is a copy of the forms tag in my web.config if that could be the reason. It looks identical though to the one generated by a new project with the exception of the name and timeout attribute. <authentica...
I'm still kinda new in ASP.NET and recently I found out about SubSonic, which I started to use. Now it seems funny and such a waste of time (and nerves) when I look back into times when I was developing without SubSonic and jQuery. And there probably are a lot of libraries and frameworks that speeds up development. Which ones do you use?...
On a .Net production server, I am unable to look at the Application trace. The web server returns a 404 error. When copying the files on my local computer, the trace works, making further testing impractical. The trace seems to be correctly set: <trace enabled="true" requestLimit="20" pageOutput="true" traceMode="SortByTime" localOnly...
Hi, This is the page that I'm having. But the resize part in the section does not seem to be working. I copied most of the code from the Ajax site. I placed a alert() in the tag (line 108) to find the value of 'b._originalHeight' and it shows up as '44'. I have also tried the code in the above-said tutorial (line 132) and that did not...
I have a GridView where one column is bound to an object property containing a nullable integer. I set SortExpression to the name of the property, and sorting works perfectly as long as all rows contain a value. If any rows contain null, however, I get an exception: System.InvalidOperationException : Failed to compare two elements in th...
EDITED WITH ANSWER I have been able to prove that you can in fact get LINQ to work running on a 2.0 sp1 server. It will not work at all without at least 2.0 SP1. But all you need is to include the following assemblies in your project. System.Core.dll System.Data.DataExtensions.dll System.Data.Linq.dll System.Web.Extensions.dll System...
Recently I was working with generating a PDF from Crystal Reports through a webform. It was failing, which I determined to be caused by the permissions settings on the c:\windows\temp dir. I gave the Network Service account full access to this folder, which promptly fixed the issue. But is there a reason the Network Service account ...
I have created a user control to handle adding comments to certain business entities, like contacts and customers. Works great ... except for one issue. I am using a ListView control to edit and delete comments, and a separate area, on the same user control to add a new comment. All of this is wrapped in an UpdatePanel. Here is my ...
I am working on an ASP.NET application and am trying to add user authentication. As a first step, I am using the Web Site Administration tool (Website | ASP.NET Configuration) to manage users and permissions. Accessing this website is incredibly slow. To load the main page takes 30 seconds. When navigating to the Security page (also ...
I have a webpage that pulls information from a database, converts it to .csv format, and writes the file to the HTTPResponse. string csv = GetCSV(); Response.Clear(); Response.ContentType = "text/csv"; Response.Write(csv); This works fine, and the file is sent to the client with no problems. However, when the file is sent to the cl...
I am trying to set attributes for an IFRAME html control from the code-behind aspx.cs file. I came across a post that says you can use FindControl to find the non-asp controls using: The aspx file contains: <iframe id="contentPanel1" runat="server" /> and then the code-behind file contains: protected void Page_Load(object sender, E...
I want to allow an Excel report to be viewed embedded in a WebPage... is there a way? I don't want to use an ActiveX, or OWC (Office Web Components), I just want to open an existing file from the internet explorer application. I don't want users to download and then open it. Using an iframe wouldn't be a problem, but my preliminary t...

For my current project, I need to request XML data over a tcp/ip socket connection. For this, I am using the TcpClient class: Dim client As New TcpClient() client.Connect(server, port) Dim stream As NetworkStream = client.GetStream() stream.Write(request) stream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.length) // Output buffer and return results... ...
When an Event is triggered by a user in IE, it is set to the window.event object. The only way to see what triggered the event is by accessing the window.event object (as far as I know) This causes a problem in ASP.NET validators if an event is triggered programmatically, like when triggering an event through jQuery. In this case, the w...
In ASP.net 2.0, the PreviousPage property of a web page does not have a ViewState collection. I want to use this collection to transfer information between pages. ...
I'm not very experienced at using ASP.NET, but I've used built in membership providers for simple WebForms application, and I found them PITA when trying to extend the way they work (add/remove few fields and redo controls accordingly). Now I'm preparing for MVC (ASP.NET MVC or Monorail based) project, and I'm thinking - is there a bette...
Here's my scenario. I created an application which uses Integrated Windows Authentication in order to work. In Application_AuthenticateRequest(), I use HttpContext.Current.User.Identity to get the current WindowsPrincipal of the user of my website. Now here's the funny part. Some of our users have recently gotten married, and their n...
I am having a very hard time finding a standard pattern / best practice that deals with rendering child controls inside a composite based on a property value. Here is a basic scenario. I have a Composite Control that has two child controls, a textbox and a dropdown. Lets say there is a property that toggles which child to render. so: ...
