Re: specified sql server not found

Dear friend,

let's ask your provider for your database connetction string ,They will responsible for creating and provide link to you,

Then use the connection string on web.config file here is the example

Ex:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
<appSettings>
</appSettings>

<connectionStrings>
    <add name="connectionStringName" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1\mssql; Initial Catalog=DBname; User ID=ABC; Password=XYZ;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>

</connectionStrings>

<system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" strict="false" explicit="true"/>
    <pages>

      <namespaces>
        <clear/>
        <add namespace="System"/>

        <add namespace="System.Web.UI"/>
        <add namespace="System.Web.UI.WebControls"/>
        <add namespace="System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts"/>
        <add namespace="System.Web.UI.HtmlControls"/>
        <add namespace="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
      </namespaces>
    </pages>


</system.web>

<system.net>
    <mailSettings>
      <smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
        <network host="mail.jaabsfilms.com" port="25" />
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
</system.net>

</configuration>

Re: web.config oddity

Hi,

Thanks for this but the tables I have work perfectly well with the default web.config and also with the amended web.config and I have no wish to change them,

Hi,

Thanks for this and true it does not look like a valid application name yet this is the value supplied in the default web.config file and it works as long as the connection string refers to the aspnetdb database.

'Filename.xls' cannot be accessed. When downloading from Server

stephen.adshead — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 05:00:00 GMT

'Filename.xls' cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location. Or, the server the document is stored on may not be responding.

I have several Excel files which my end users can download from my ASP.net app however this has suddenly stopped working on all the Excel Spreadsheets, when you try and open the file you get the error above.

Is this something that has been changed in the web.config? I have been googling the error but all posts refer to spreadsheet corruption... they cant all have become currupt surely?

Thanks in advance

Steve

web.config oddity

craigton — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Hi,

The default web.config refers to aspnetdb.mdf but since I want to use my existing database against which I had run regsql I changed the connection string reference to one which pointed to my database. The login failed for a user/password that I could see were in the database so I knew it was not accessing my database.

After comparing the settings against against a working example I saw that the successful solution had SecurityQuickStart as the value for applicationName in the <membership> <Providers> section so I made the change and it worked! I searched the solution for SecurityQuickStart and it found no entries apart from this one that I had just created!

So, anyone know why this works

				<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" 
                    connectionStringName="ApplicationServices" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" 
                    requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" 
                    minRequiredPasswordLength="6" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" passwordAttemptWindow="10" 
                    applicationName="SecurityQuickStart"/>

but this fails

				<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" 
                    connectionStringName="ApplicationServices" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" 
                    requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" 
                    minRequiredPasswordLength="6" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" passwordAttemptWindow="10" 
                    applicationName="/"/>

Thanks in advance.

The system.webServer/handlers/add element for http handlers has an allowPathInfo attribute. What is it for?

Shayke — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 05:00:00 GMT

I'm playing with http handlers. When adding an http handler to the web.config, in order to make it process special extensions on IIS 7, you need to register it under the system.webServer/handlers element. The add element there has an allowPathInfo attribute and I can't understand what is it for...

MSDN says:

Specifies whether the handler processes full path information in a URI, such as contoso/marketing/imageGallery.aspx. If the value is true, the handler processes the full path, contoso/marketing/imageGallery. If the value is false, the handler processes only the last section of the path, /imageGallery.

It doesn't help so much... Anyone?

Thanks, Shay.
