There can be a huge discussion on "Trusting on dlls". Its a personal preference.

You can see only function input and output unless you decompile it.
When you call a function, internally, it may read your system information and send it to some website or webservice apart from giving the correct result. You may never know but can be done. Even proper testing may not solve all the trust issues.
I am not saying Dlls does it. But, according to me, not having security gives hackers a good chance to attack to your server.

About Impersonation, I will google it.

Well, my problem appears to be solved by changing a setting in web.config.

Granting access to that folder seems to be a good option.

Thanks Bob for all you valuable feedback.

It seems I was making an incorrect assumption. When you said it was a dll in yur business layer I assumed it to be a dll written by you (or someone in your company), I never thought about it being a 3rd party one.

True enough, but your OP was about writing to a specific folder. It doesn't matter what context you run under, this type of thing could still happen, its all about knowing the source of your dll.

Anyway, hopefully you will resolve it. Personally, I rarely use dlls from unknown/untrusted sources. If its a library type function (such as convert to pdf) then I get it from a recognised source, otherwise I usually write my own.

I'm trying to a rather odd conversion: a set of wmv to FLVs transport streams. The command I'm using is:

Most of the time it works. However, some FLVs are encoded differently than others, and I sometimes get this error:

Help required in ASP.net treeview

I have got stuck up with ASP.Net tree view.

Business requirement

There are parent type nodes called category (folders for example).
Child node can be category (folders) or factor (files for example) in business term. Factor cannot have child. In the sense a leaf node can be category or factor. The requirement is of different image on expand collapse of nodes for category and for leaf node which are factor they want third image, if lead node is a category then they want image that is same as expanded category.

Problem and scenario

I did some property settings to bring these images as per requirement. But the problem came in picture when I tried to add image through code for leaf nodes. The leaf node are getting indenting compared to their siblings. They are starting from other nodes text starting point ,that is the reason they are getting indented. I could not include NoExpandimageURL property for leaf node because my leaf nodes are of two types and have different images for each type. Is there any way to make this proper align?

Code written for tree view generation.

(Source file)

<asp:TreeView ID="tvwCategories" ExpandDepth="2" runat="server" CollapseImageUrl="../../_LAYOUTS/IMAGES/category.gif"

ExpandImageUrl="../../_LAYOUTS/IMAGES/CatCollap.gif" NodeIndent="15" Width="209px" BorderColor="Transparent" BorderStyle="None"

17-Feb-09 21:34

Hi Friends,

The following code has been used in one of the asp page to fetch data from excel sheet and insert into table. Excel Driver part is used to do this. But however the excel sheet includes more than 130 rows. But when importing it just imports only 91 row and the remaining rows are not getting uploaded in the table. Please Please help.

ExcelDriver Part:

set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
set rsExcel = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")

strName = "\Uploads\bicreports\" & strFileName
servername = server.mappath(strName)
' Create a connection string.
strConnectionString = "DBQ= " & servername & _
";DefaultDir=" & SERVER.MAPPATH("/bicreports/") & _
";Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)}" & _
";DriverId=22;FIL=excel 8.0" & _
";ImplicitCommitSync=Yes;MaxBufferSize=2048;MaxScanRows=8;PageTimeout=5" & _
";SafeTransactions=0;Threads=3;UserCommitSync=Yes;"

Is there anything wrong with above code attributes...which forces to read only 91 rows...

Its very urgent...Please help...

Thanks lot in advance.

ASP.NET File Download

Hi guys,

I'm trying to do a file download for a user in ASP.NET. The method I'm using is writing the entire file to the Response the client gets. This approach works as expected in IE7 / Firefox / Etc. Unfortunately this approach crashes IE6. Locally on my machine (XP + IIS 5.1) it also works in IE6, but on the server machine (WIN2003 + IIS 6) it doesn't.

Response.Clear();
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
Response.ContentEncoding = System.Text.UTF8Encoding.UTF8;
Response.Charset = "";

Response.ContentType = "application/text";

sr_File = new StreamReader(file.FullName);
        
Response.BinaryWrite(new BinaryReader(sr_File.BaseStream).ReadBytes((int) sr_File.BaseStream.Length));

Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + file.Name);

Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", file.Length.ToString());

Response.Flush();
HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest();

sr_File.Close();

Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

From where you are getting this file? If it is not on database, all you need is to redirect to the file using Response.Redirect(FileToDownload). You don't need all these coding.

You might be using theme.
If yes, Do RadioButton.EnableTheming = false;

This should now work if you are setting the font-size correctly.

Good Morning All

Am working on a Setup Project. I have an Installer that write on the Web.config file like this

public override void Install(System.Collections.IDictionary stateSaver)
        {
            base.Install(stateSaver);

            String MyServer = Context.Parameters["MyServer"];
                        
            String server = "Username=sa;Password=wow;Database=OBooking_Master;Server=" + MyServer;

            String Key = "TESTY";

            UpdateConfig(Key, server);


        }


        public void UpdateConfig(string strKey, string strValue)
        {

            Configuration objConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~");

            AppSettingsSection objAppsettings = (AppSettingsSection)objConfig.GetSection("appSettings");

            if (objAppsettings != null)
            {

                objAppsettings.Settings[strKey].Value = strValue;

                objConfig.Save();

            }
        }

Cool , now after i compile everything, testing my setup, i get an Error that says

The Application relative Virtual path '~' is not allowed here

i have tried the Following

Configuration objConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(HttpRuntime.AppDomainAppVirtualPath);

An i got an Error

Object reference not set to an instance of an object

And when i do it like this

Configuration objConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(@"~\Install_Helloworld\Web.Config");

and i got the Error Below on the Picture below.

In the CustomActionData Property i have this
