    - Error using HTTPS/POST in compact framework Hi there I experienced errors when using HTTPS/POST in compact framework. Firstly, the application details - I created a smart device application in VS.NET 200 - I used to example code as shown in HttpWebRequest with minor changes (appended below - I created my own CertificatePolic - The code communicates with a JSP running on BEA weblogi The testing details a.) communicating directly with BEA, using HTT b.) communicating directly with BEA, using HTTP c.) communicating with BEA over Apache with BEA connector, using HTT d.) communicating with BEA over Apache with BEA connector, using HTTPS The testing results, when running the application from my desktop pc a.) works fin b.) works fin c.) works fin d.) works fin The testing results, when running the application in Pocket PC 2002 emulato a.) works fin b.) exception raised: blocking operatio c.) exception raised: invalid segment lengt d.) exception raised: blocking operatio Running the application on a real smart device produces the same result as in emulator IMHO, accessing a web resource should not be a matter of underlying hardware nor a matter of server-type. I expect the compact framework to behave in the same way, when running on a desktop or on a smart device. If my code is erroneous, please correct me. If its a matter of compact framework please point me out the reasons and how to avoid it Thanky a lot for any help Greetings Heiner Amthaue ----------------8<------------- Here is the significant code.

    - parser error: Could not load type ???.Global in globall.asax line 1 Hi, I'm suddenly unable to run any ASP.net applications. Last week everything worked. But now (Mondays!) I get the same error from _every_ application I've written: Parser Error Description: An error occured during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source code appropriately. Parser Error Message: Could not load type HTMLTableExtractor.Global Source Error: <% Application Codebehind = "Global.asax.cs" Inherits="HTMLTableExtractor.Global" %> This is what I have tried to date: 1.

    - C#: Access is denied when adding virtual FTP directory to IIS Hi, I am trying to add an FTP Virtual Directory to IIS through C# code in an ASP.NET page. I'm getting an Access Denied Error when running the code below. I've left out the code adding the directory itself. For debugging purposes I tried to only execute the code below (RefreshCache();), and even then I received that error. From the beginning on, I've added the Username and Password property to the DirectoryEntry instance. See my code below. note: target, username and password are parameters passed through a method that holds this code. DirectoryEntry folderRoot = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://" + target + "/MSFTPSVC/1/Root"); folderRoot.Username = username; folderRoot.Password = password; folderRoot.RefreshCache(); Right before executing this, I managed to add a user account using this instance of DirectoryEntry class. DirectoryEntry AD = new DirectoryEntry("WinNT://" + target + ",computer",username,password); (....) And I managed to add a New Website in IIS (not a virtual directory) using an WMI wrapper (ManagementClass, ManagementObject, etc...). With the same UserName and Password as I tried to use to add the FTP virtual directory. thank you in advance, Vincent Tag: Redistributa DotNet with a MSI package? Tag: 73374

    - Howto: PassportIdentity class usage for MSN We want to support synchronizing some files with the users private documents share at "http://www.msnusers.com/My%20Web%20Documents/", so he is able to use e.g. it's documents from multiple client machines. The user provides and we store the needed credential infos (user/mail address and password) for the passport challenge/responses. Now my question: is there a way (like in MS Messenger) to provide these credentials in a https://... url as query params? Or: how we solve the login process via passport to access the WebDAV user folder at msn? We want to have a behavior similar to that of the windows system file explorer, if you open the colorfull butterfly icon folder in "My Network places": Open a credentials dialog (if we did not have them all) and then strait forward accessing the folder/file we need there. Related issue: It is currently a hassle or even not possible to get the .NET build in PassportIdenty work with a non-ASP.NET application. Is it possible without install/dealing the Passport SDK? All passport infos on the Internet we found are related to ASP.NET applications, but we need it in a Windows Forms App...

    - timer tick in form is re-entrant ?? Hi Anyone else encountered this problem? In a VB or C# project I have 2 forms. Both have a forms timer. The timer in the one of the forms is running at 55ms and raises an event which is handled by the first form. The handler disables, sets the interval, then re-enables the timer on its form. It also sleeps for 60 ms. The problem I've found occurs when the 55ms time overruns (say when the computer is doing something else ). After the timer has been re-enabled the first timer tick ( the one raising the event ) is called again even though the first instance is still running. Hence the call stack looks like this Tick1() RaiseEvent ... Re-enable timer Tick() The key here is the re-enabling of the first timer. If that is not done then the problem does not occur. Anyone else encountered this? It can't be considered normal behaviour for the timer tick can it? thanks for any input Liam More detailed code follows Public Class DialogForm Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form #Region " Windows Form Designer generated code " Event DialogEvent() Private Sub DialogForm_Closing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing Timer1.Enabled = False End Sub Dim b As Boolean = False Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick If b = True Then ErrorLabel.Text = Str(Val(ErrorLabel.Text) + 1) End If b = True RaiseEvent DialogEvent() b = False End Sub End Class Public Class Form1 Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form #Region " Windows Form Designer generated code " Private Sub DialogButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles DialogButton.Click Dim f As New DialogForm AddHandler f.DialogEvent, AddressOf DialogEventHandler 'f.ShowDialog() f.Show() End Sub Sub DialogEventHandler() Sleep(50) Timer1.Enabled = False Timer1.Interval = 1000 Timer1.Enabled = True End Sub End Class Tag: Redistributa DotNet with a MSI package?

    - Returned values from web service is wrong Hey Im calling a webservice wich is returning a DataSet. In the DataSet, wich is generated from a SQL query, there is a date field. This datefield (datetime) has the value '12-04-2004' (Danish date format, or actually i think it stores it as italian in the database. Corresponds to DD-MM-YYYY). If i try to write the returned DataSets values out, in my program from the returned DataSet it keeps writing '11-04-2004 15:00:00'. What is that? Anyone who can explain to me what happens? Ive tried to see wether the value that is written is right, in the xml document that returns from the web service. The value looks like this: <dato>2004-04-18T00:00:00.0000000+02:00</dato> So i presume that the returned value is correct, but it is apparently wrong in the dataset on the client side, or it is converted to the day before during writing out the value. label1.Text = DataSet.Tables[0].Rows[0]["dato"].toString(); label1.Text is now '11-04-2004 15:00:00' even though the value in the returning xml document says the 12. April 2004 It happens with all of my dates. They are all set to the previous day at 1500 hours How can i solve my problem? Anyone knows anything about this? Please help.... -- Cheers Jimmy Tag: Redistributa DotNet with a MSI package? Tag: 73352

    - Crystal Report - Server Application Unavailable I have a Crystal report that I'm calling from a website - the report executes and then exports to a PDF, and then the PDF is then shown in a new browser window. It runs fine the first time, but any subsequent attempt fails at the point of exporting to PDF and the server eventually times out with a "Server Application Unavailable" message. The event log has a "aspnet_wp.exe (PID: 1764) stopped unexpectedly. " message logged. The only way I can do anythign further is to restart IIS or restart the aspnet_wp process. It tuns fine every time on the development machine, but on the Test & Production servers the problem occurs. Both Test & Production have had the IIS Lockdown run against them. Any ideas ?

    - Running a VB.Net application in a language different than the Net FrameWork I have developped and tested a multilingual application which is running fine. When testing from inside .NET I created a drop down menu where I can choose the language allowing changing the language of the User Interface. I am storing this data in the registry so when I launch my application it is being loaded with that settings. This is working fine when working from inside VB.Net. Running the actual Exe it seems that my language settings are overwritten by the language of the Net Framework. Could it be true ? If it is true is there a way to overwrite this ?

    - via NUnit: Trace.Listeners.Add failure In my c# app I create a TextWriterTraceListener object and add it to the Listeners collection via a call to Trace.Listeners.Add(...). This works fine in my application; however it causes the unit tests to fail when the code gets run via NUnit tests.

    - Socket class and thread safety The Socket class is said not to be thread safe in the documentation. Logicaly, that would mean that thread safety measures are required when dealing with asyncronous socket operations. However, I have never seen any exemple deal with locking the socket reference in asyncronous context. What is the correct thing to do? Also, is there really any advantages to using sockets through a NetworkStream? Is there a prefered model when dealing with a binary protocol?

    - FileSystem Bug ? I have found a strange behavior I use FileInfo class to retreive LastWriteTime property of some file The file is just a JPEG image. When the image is editted by photosho (actually the image is rotated), the LastWriteTime property shows correct modification date. However, when I rotate the image with the built-in WinXP Image Viever, the property does not reflec the recent image change: it shows previous {image changing date} I checked Image properties using windows explorer, and it show exactly the same what FileInfo class does. If image is modified (rotated by winXP built-In Image Viewer, the "Modified" property does not reflect the recent image change. The only thing I noticed that changes are file attributes After rotation with WinXP Image Viewer, the "archive" attribute is removed So, is it a bug or XP Image viewer modifies files in a way that bypasses FileSystem .. or what ?? The most important thing I would like to know is actual file modification date (date of last modification), regardless of what program had been used to modify the file.

    - Help 3DES File Encrypt in VB6 to 3DES File Decrypt In VB.NET Hello, My problem is two fold. 1) I must support a deployed legacy application written in VB6 SP5. I need to export data from a database, compress it and the encrypt the data using 3DES (to prevent tampering) data gets transmitted at night to the home office of my company. Rewriting this application in .NET is not an option as the application was 5 years in development. 2) After I receive the data from the outlying offices, I need to Decrypt the data using VB.NET 2003 and the Cryptography namespace prior to transforming the data into an AS/400. I have successfully written VB6 code which encrypts and decryptes the data through calls to advapi32.dll. Unfortunately, any attempts to decrypt these files using VB.NET's Cryptography namespace results in a error and the attempt always fails. Can someone give me some examples or guidance in VB6 to VB.NET data 3DES encryption/decryption??? I am really stumped on this topic. Sample code would be nice!!! Remember the conditions - Encypt Under VB6 / Decrypt Under VB.NET 2003. Thanks underwmd Tag: Redistributa DotNet with a MSI package? Tag: 73300

    - adding grid to working currency manager disables addnew I created a group of 12 pretty typical databound forms around a currency manager. They all worked perfectly, patterned after chapter 13 of ADO.NET, Core Reference, published by Microsoft Press. In one case, the DataAdapter daDT filled the dataset instance dsDT1 with one table, DateType. The table had three columns: ID(autoincrement), DateType(string), and Active(boolean - default true). Two textboxes and a checkbox. The user could view the rows one by one with the usual <<<>>>, and edit, add, delete, update(the dataset, which was merely ending the edit), and updating the ms access database(submitChanges button). Also a cancel button. Pretty run of the mill Nevertheless, it acted quirky from time to time. One MVP took it upon himself to help me. It befuddled him as well. Finally he asked me to email the solution to time. After several days debugging, he found the problem. daDT.fill(dsDT1.DateType) caused the quirks. Instead I should use daDT.Fill(dsDT1, "DateType"). That solved the quirks Then I decided to make the form more visually appealing. I added a datagrid called dgrd whose datasource in the property box was dsdt1.datetype. I used the mousedown event and the hittest method to synchronize changes in the grid to the currency manager , and the handler for cm.positionchanged to synchronize the grid with changes in the position in the currency manager. Not hard, just adapted from the April 2004 msdn dvd Everything worked but the Add button. If I clicked Add, the textbox for DateType wouldn't clear. A row would be added to the grid with <null> in the DateType column, and various exceptions would follow depending on the button I clicked next I submitted a question more than a week ago and Cor Ligthert endeavored to help me. I thank him for that. We tried dataviews three different ways. In the form_load event I set the dgrd.DataSource = (DsDT1("DateType")), but the IDE wouldn't accept it. Cor suggested dgrd.DataSource = DsDT1.Tables("DataType"). It didn't help The problem has to be a defect in ADO.NET similar to the previous one. Rather than eliminate the grid, which adds delightful visual cues to the user, can somebody figure out a workaround Code follows.

    - Compact framework throwing formatException but 'normal' framework doesn't I'm trying to write a web services client using VB.NET (VS 2003) for a PocketPC (using .Net Compact Framework 1.0 SP2) either on the emulator or my device. Other services are working fine however when I try to call a service that returns a complex object I get a "formatException". The exact same code works perfectly using .NET Framework 1.0 on my PC. (Aren't the .Net Framework and .NET Compact Framework the same?) Unfortunately I don't have access to the server code (written in Java) so I can't simplify the object to identify which part is causing the problem (see below for the response I get back from the server) Is there any way to debug the code that is processing the response? I found some autogenerated code in VS which invokes the web service but not the code that actually reads the service response. Does anybody have any ideas as to how I can get this to work using the .Net Compact Framework?

I'm having the oddest exception that I can't track down. The app refreshes current conditions hourly (with a System.Windows.Forms.Timer).

Note the lack of any user code in the stack trace. Also note that this build is built in debug mode; I was hoping to get some line numbers. I get the same thing when I build in release mode. I'm clueless as to how to prevent this exception from being thrown. I'm almost at the point where I'll just catch a Win32Exception in my Application.ThreadException handler and swallow it.

Hi,

I have built an application in C# and .net and I want to install it to the
users. But I dont know if the users has DotNetFramework 1.1 installed.
So I want my instyallation to include the framework, and install it if
needed. The only way that I has found to do this is with the Bootstrap
example.
But thats no good beacuse that means that the runfile is an exe, and I want
to "shoot" out my application with help of my AD (Active Directory) and that
requires an MSI Package. Which my deploymentproject creates, but thats
without the bootstrap and dotnetfx.

So is there any way I can include the framework in my installation so that
it installes it if neaded and the runfile for the installation is an MSI
file, which I get from my deployment project. Or does the DotNetFramework
1.1 exist in a MSI Package version, so that I can install it through the AD
before I install my application?

Very greateful for any tips or info.

/Robert

Take a look at this. There is section part way down describing how to create a distributable .NET Framework package for use with AD..

Ok, that looks good.

Thanks for the help Gary!!!

But its pretty bad that you can´t set a property in your deploymentproject
so that it includes the DotNetFramework and installes it if neaded with the
application you are installing.
