Uploading my first decently sized web app to my shared host provided me with a fresh set of challenges, by which I mean, sleepless nights. The issue was that I had most certainly not developed my application for medium trust (or had any clue what that was.) I mitigated all of the issues, save one. I had written an installer for the a...
I'm on .NET 2.0, running under Medium Trust (so TimeZoneInfo and the Registry are not allowed options). I'm asking the user for two dates and a time zone, and would really love to be able to automatically determine whether I need to adjust the time zone for DST.

I have seen a few different in-process SQL databases for .NET (including one from Microsoft), but either they do not work under medium trust (ASP.NET) or the documentation/websites don't even talk about.

My web app writes to several folders (logs, uploads, etc), and I've always set these permissions manually through my hosting provider. I'd like to create a setup script that performs this on new installations. Is this possible under Medium trust? I can't even call File.GetAccessControl, let alone File.SetAccessControl, but I don't nee...
I have the requirement to call an internal method of a 3rd party object (I cannot make it public for example). I can do that via reflection.

I am attempting to do a redirect in the Application_Error handler in Global.asax. Nothing fancy at all. private void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e) { // ...snip... Server.Transfer(somePath, false); // ...snip... } This works great under Full trust, but I need to get it to work under Medium trust. The code I'm...
