VS 2005 Web Application Projects

The type '' exists in both '' and ''

JeremyThake — Mon, 10 Apr 2006 03:31:21 GMT

For some reason though it appears that one of my class files (_common.cs - in the App_Code directory) is being included in the WAP .dll file as well as when it compiles the App_Code at runtime.

error CS0433: The type 'inlinehockey._common' exists in both 'c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root\25321638\9b5c4b00\assembly\dl3\3657f4e6\cd91aef5_4d5cc601\inlinehockey.DLL' and 'c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root\25321638\9b5c4b00\App_Code.xad_ajc1.dll'

The error was not knowing what dll to use for the type when you get the CS0433 error.

How can I get round this error?

Thanks

Object reference not set to an instance of an object - Web Application Project

stpeteluis — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 01:38:33 GMT

A little background
I installed the VS 2005 Web Application Project V1.0 Release (installation was successfull) and followed Scott Guthrie's tutorial to the letter (below)

Tutorial 1: Building Your First Web Application Project
http://webproject.scottgu.com/CSharp/HelloWorld/Helloworld.aspx

However, I am getting the following error in My First Web Application Project: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." This happens as soon as I hit the F5 key (or CTRL+F5 key).

I have checked all the references and they all seem to be OK.
I double checked myproject's properties and they match the screenshots from the tutorial.
I added the ASPNET and NETWORK SERVICE users with Full Permissions to the physical path for my project (D:\MyDNNProjects\ ). This didn't work either.
I also tried to un-install and re-install the Web Application Project V1.0 Release but the problem still persists.

Note: The solution builds correctly and the assembly is created in the /bin directory (MyDnnProjects.dll)

My dev environment:

VS 2005
VS 2003
Windows 2003 Standard
SQL Server 2005
Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition
Visual C# 2005 Express Edition
.Net Framework 1.1 and 2.0 SDK

Am I missing something? Can you help? Thanks.

Documents Security on Website

webgal — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 13:33:27 GMT

i have a client who wants to implement security on documents on his website. The documents are uploaded to website through CMS and can be accessed through actual website by users who have logged in via user name & pasword and thus authenticated.

But if someone just know about the URL of that document he can simply type the url in browser window and can access the document. What is the easy way to secure these documents?

Secondly, is this possible to trace this access of documents(i.e by typing url in browser)? In other words I mean can global.asax's session_start is fired when i type something like this in browser http://www.mywebsite.com/documents/doc1.docx

Generation of designer file failed: Unknown server tag 'asp:WebPartManager'

gburks — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 19:17:18 GMT

Hi,

I recently rebuilt an application using the new Web Application Project in Visual Studio (rather than the previous Web Site Project). I am using the January Futures CTP of Ajax and Webparts, (not to do anything with Ajax yet, just to fix drag and drop across browsers).

A Web Application Project creates .designer.cs files for all of your aspx pages. I am getting a warning on pages that contain an asp:WebPartManager or asp:WebPartZone control:

 Warning   Generation of designer file failed: Unknown server tag 'asp:WebPartManager'.

Now if I try to add other controls to that page, Visual Studio can't update the .designer.cs file for that page and I end up with errors.

I have seen many posts about correctly remapping web.config to use the Microsoft.Web.Preview assembly, and that does not seem to be my problem. I have that set up as recommended and my code executes fine until I try to add new controls to my page. I have moved the Microsoft.Web.Preview.dll to my bin and added a reference.

Any idea why Visual Studio is having this issue?

Thanks,

Graham

Web Reference Doesn't Include Sibling References

sisdog — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 01:13:11 GMT

I have a solution that has a web project and a class project. The class project happens to be my model and it contains and ADO.Net Entity Data Model. Correspondingly, that class project has a reference to System.Data.Entity. This class project is something that I'd like to reuse so I'd like it to be self contained.

Now, when I add go into my web project and add a reference to my class project, it brings in the dll of the class project. But, it doesn't bring in the System.Data.Entity.dll to my web project. I have some code in my web project that reference Entity businss objects that are in my class project (like my CustomerOrder entity for example). But, the ADO.Net Entity Framework has all business objects that it creates inherit from System.Data.Object.DataClasses.EntityObject.

I get a compile error in my web project when I try to reference my CustomerOrder class because it complains that the type 'system.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityObject' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced.

So question: do I have to add System.Data.Entity as a direct reference to my web project? Is there any way for my Solution Rebuild to copy not only my class project's dll to my web project, but also it's related dll's like System.Data.Entity so that they're there when the compile tries to compile my web project?

Thanks for any help.

ASP.NET runtime error: There is no build provider registered for the extension ''

MNF — Tue, 26 Dec 2006 23:28:00 GMT

I have WAP project in VS 2005 SP1 (with WAP included) . One of my ascx files, when open as "View Markup"(aka Source tab) shows error

ASP.NET runtime error: There is no build provider registered for the extension ''. You can register one in the <compilation><buildProviders> section in machine.config or web.config. Make sure is has a BuildProviderAppliesToAttribute attribute which includes the value 'Web' or 'All'. I found at least one other had the same problem.
If I switch to Designer Tab, the error disappeared.
The error doesn't stop the compile or run, just annoyying tosee it in error list.

Any ideas, what it can be caused by?

Deploy problem: The directory '/App_GlobalResources/' is not allowed

Karuzo — Wed, 12 Jul 2006 15:48:09 GMT

Hello,

I have encountered a problem and I am at loss.
I have a Web Application Project (not a Web Site!) in VS 2005 and I am using the directory App_GlobalResources for my localized resources.

I have only 2 files in there: strings.resx and strings.en.resx for czech and english versions of the web which contains just strings.

I was used to VS2003 way of deploying my app - just copy the bin folder and aspx files

Now it completely fails, because when I build my web application, the files

App_GlobalResources.compiled
App_GlobalResources.dll

do not apper in the bin folder.

When I try to copy App_GlobalResources folder to the production environment, I get the exception: The directory '/App_GlobalResources/' is not allowed because the application is precompiled

If I do not have App_GlobalResources.dll nor '/App_GlobalResources folder in my app on the server, I cannot access my resources and I get this

Could not load file or assembly 'App_GlobalResources' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Thanks for any help,

Multiple Web Application Project architecture

BunnyStrider — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 23:45:29 GMT

I'm trying to make a website like this

Base/Root web site/folder/web application project
this will contain all my web service references, my root web.config, my base classes, my root master page. it's namespace will be mycompany.myroot

then I want to create, say, 10 separate web application projects that reference the base web application project for things like web.config settings, virtual path provider, themes and styles, etc. They'll also have a nested master pages referencing the root master page. it's namespace will be mycompany.myroot.mysubapp

My question is is this the best way to do this? and how does it look as far as referencing each other and folder structure? Here's my best guess.

you have a WAP of root, namespace company.root, folder company/root
you have a WAP of subapp, namespace company.root.subapp1, folder company/subapp1
to work on subapp you have a solution referencing subapp1 and root
to work on root you have a solution of root and you have another build solution that references root and ALL subapps, everything.

Is this best practice? Will this work? How do I get subapp1's web.config to inherit from root's web.config
basically in deployment, subapp1 will be a subfolder of root...but during development I would like them separated as different WAPs but function as if they're subfolders of root correctly (i.e. using root's web service clients and web.config settings and such)

One question I'm not sure on the answer to is, how do i get myapp1's webconfig to inherit root's web.config during development

I'm using VS2008.TFS

Thanks,

App_Code namespace error

roxie — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 21:39:52 GMT

Hi, I have a c# app that I've been working on and I added a new class to the App_Code directory.

I wanted to use the class in one of my aspx pages, so I tried to add a using statement in my code behind

that referenced the class. I tried EVERYTHING and I consistently got compile errors stating

The type or namespace name does not exist in the namespace (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Eventually, I just created a new directory called 'classes' and copied the class over from

App_Code, and then it worked COMPLETELY FINE. It just wouldn't compile when the class was stored

in App_Code. God that was frustrating. I thought that's what App_Code was for. What gives?

CodeBehind page not recognizing objects from Designer page

JayMor — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 18:44:42 GMT

I have a VS 2005 / ASP.NET 2.0 Web Application. I've started having a bunch of pages fail where one or more of the "runat=server" objects on the page that I'm referencing in the CodeBehind page stops being recognized and I'm getting "'xxx' is not a member of 'application.page'" errors. When I look at the designer file (page.aspx.designer.vb) the object is in the file correctly. If I delete the designer file and recreate it (Create Web Application shortcut menu option) the error persists. The only thing that seems to be fixing the problem is deleting the file and creating a new one. The problem is, every time I finish creating a new file, then run a Rebuild on the Solution, one or more NEW aspx files show up with the same disconnect error between the designer page and code behind page. Does ANYONE know what the h_ll is going on?!?!

Designer files are not updated with new controls

eelises — Thu, 16 Aug 2007 06:04:39 GMT

Hi,

We have a web application project that we open through SourceSafe. The project
is developed locally on each developer's machine, and later will be
merged on the testing server machine. All the machines run WinXP Pro SP2 and
VS 2005 SP1.

When we make changes in HTML source mode or Design mode (.aspx file)
the designer file is not updated with the new controls, thus causing
an error on the VB page (since the control is not defined). We have
tried changing between source and design mode, saving, compiling,
rewriting the <html> tag, closing the project and restarting VS with no avail.
The compiler does not update the designer file.
One exception: this problem occurs only on pages that were not created
locally but copied from the server when the project was first opened
and deployed on local machine. New pages that are created locally
works just fine.

Thanks in advance for sharing your ideas and experience.

Passing parameters from a form to report in reporting services

tamliaw — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 17:46:12 GMT

Hi,

I built some reports by using Reporting Services 2005 that are deployed to a web site.

I also create an web application (written in ASP .NET C#) that display those reports as mentioned above.

The reports need to accept a parameter from web form based on the logged in user role such that other report parameters are filterd by the user role. I am using the ReportViewer control to configure the report in remote processing mode.

Please help to provide some samples code how to pass the role in web form to the report parameter in Reporting Services?

Thanks a lot!

"Add Web Deployment Project" option doesn't show up

ttyl — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 13:19:07 GMT

I downloaded WebDeploymentSetup.msi from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa479568.aspx, and installed it. When I start up VS2005, I can see "Web Deployment Projects" showing as one of the Installed Products. But after selecting a web project, then the Build menu, the "Add Web Deployment Project" option doesn't show up. I tried with a brand new web project, that option doesn't show up either. Is there other settings required in VS2005? Thanks.

HttpCompileException when debugging a web application

jiangsheng — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 20:33:59 GMT

After adding a new string to resource and use the string in some source files, I am getting a HttpCompileException when debugging a web application in Visual Studio 2005 SP1. The project is created as a web application, so I think it should compile the pages during compile time.

From the debug output, it looks like each page is compiled into its own assembly.

In the csproj file, the compiling section has the following
