How can I change the Amazon S3 url from http://bucket.amazons3.com/imagepath.jpg to http://image.mydomain.com/imagepath.jpg EDIT: Basically the whole reason for this is to hide the amazon s3 url from my users. I was thinking about a HttpModule that would redirect the request from image.mydomain.com to bucket.amazons3.com. But ...
We recently upgraded to a new server, we were running Windows 2000, and now we are running Windows server 2008. We have a bunch of reports created in Crystal reports that are having an issue printing now. We use the ASP RDC(report design component). The reports are loaded and can be displayed, but when you try to print them, it takes abo...
I'm trying to find a way to programmatically check if a particular HttpModule is loaded (as a component I'm writing requires the module to work correctly). I'm trying: bool ismodulepresent = false; foreach(HttpModuleAction module in ((HttpModulesSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.web/httpModules")).Modules) { if(module...

So far I have done the following: In IIS Manager, for the particular folder, the following are set: Require secure channel (SSL) Require 128 bit encryption Ignore client certificates However when I try to access the page...
I read in a few places that MVC requires Windows Server 2008 for full support. Can the same be achieved on a Vista Ultimate dev machine or will some things be missing? If you have worked with MVC, have you had trouble finding relatively inexpensive hosting for Windows Server 2008? Though hosting is not as big a concern for me right (I k...

I recently installed a secure certificate for a web site I help maintain. When I'm at work and on the network where the webs server is I can navigate to secure pages (https) fine. When I try to access the same pages from outside the network (like from home) I get an error. Here is an example page from my web site: https://www.acpe.org/My...
I am trying to build a virtual machine that clones one of the servers used in production instances of our webapp so that we can do deployment testing on it. I have gotten all the necessary files over, IIS installed, the database up and running. To my eye all that remains is to copy all the IIS settings from a production environment to ...
This thing is so confusing compared to the old IIS, I haven't even found where to pick the version of .NET still. I had to comment out the and from my web.config because I kept getting: This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by defa...
I'd like to deploy my ASP.NET MVC application to a web hosting company (like DiscountASP.net). I'm confused about what needs to be in the web.config file on the web server. When I create the project locally, I get a bloated web.config with all sorts of additional modules, handlers, compilers. Do I need to add all these items to the pr...

I use JavaScript to post an Asynchronous Request to a Web Service. This works about 95% of the time. Sometimes, the request fails to be processed.

I am interested in using UrlRewriter.NET and noticed in the config page for IIS 6.0 on Win2k3, that they say to map all requests through the ASP.NET ISAPI. That's fine, but I am wondering if anyone has good or bad things to say about this performance wise? Is my web server going to be dragged down to its knees by doing this or will it ...
The site I'm working on is running Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 8 (2000?), and ASP.NET 3.5. I need to have some sort of script or application run to import data from an FTP'd text file, into the database. There is already a site running on the machine, that uses the current database. Can I use a scheduled task to reliably kick o...
