Deployment Of Encrypted App.config?
Apr 21, 2010
I've created a console VB.Net application and encrypted the app.config file with RSAProtectedConfigurationProvider.I've used an article http:www.codeproje...eAppConfig.aspx as an example for the Encryption. It works fine in an IDE on my XP desktop.Then I deployed my application to a Windows 2003 server. The package included the app's executable along with the encrypted app.exe.config file. However, the application failed on the server with the following exception:Unhandled Exception: System.Configuration.ConfigurationerrorsException: Failed to decrypt using provider 'RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider'. Error message from the provider: The RSA key container could not be opened.I decided to encrypt app.config on the server so I copied app.config and encrypted it. The app.exe.config looked encrypted and I ran the application. However, it failed: although it didn't raise an Rsa exception as before,

I've created a console .Net application and encrypted the app.config file with RSAProtectedConfigurationProvider. It works fine in an IDE on my XP desktop. Then I deployed my application to a Windows 2003 server. The package included the app's executable along with the encrypted app.exe.config file.
However, the application failed on the server with the following exception: Unhandled Exception: System.Configuration.ConfigurationErrorsException: Failed to decrypt using provider 'RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider'. Error message from the provider: The RSA key container could not be opened.
I decided to encrypt app.config on the server so I copied app.config and encrypted it. The app.exe.config looked encrypted and I ran the application. However, it failed: although it didn't raise an Rsa exception as before, it couldn't read a connection string. After I decrypted app.exe.config, I found that it contained only the below string
although the original app.config had contained an application-specific connection string. I think that in order to resolve my issue I should export the RSA keys from my desktop to the server. Can you advise how can I do it (it's not a Web application!).

how to setup my deployment project so that users can customize thier own settings in app.config? Which special folder in the File System browser should I add, Personal Data, Application Data, or Programs Menu? How do I add the app.config to the folder? What about the project output, should it also be in the same folder? If so, should the project output be taken out of the Application Folder, in other words, exist in one place? I tested my deployment and was shocked that the icon only opened on the test user's pc after installation. I have custom settings in the app.config file that have default values, but must be configurable for user specific settings.

I'm brand new to this forum. i have a question. i wrote some software a while back and now have a few new features I need to implement. this software currently makes use of "application settings" to store all of it's settings. Which works just fine.
I have a client that has about 40 users. He wants to be able to share his settings (that he set up in his copy of the software) with all of users. Preferably by distributing a copy of a config file that they would be able to import into there software.

I am attempting to find some code to use in VB.NET to decrypt a string that has been encrypted using the Java crypto libary.All of the code I have found so far uses an Initialisation Vector and Key to decrypt but the string has been encrypted using the Key only. (Using an Initialisation Vector is apperently an optional step in Java).Does anyone know of code that I can use (preferably in VB.NET but i could convert C#) to decrypt AES 128 Bit encoded string without an Initialisation Vector?

I have a class library (Named ADI), that needs some configuration settings from the project using it (like connectionstring, filesystem locations etc).
I want to define these settings in my Windows Forms/Web Projects App.Config or Web.Config, like other settings.
Here is part of my app.config for my windows forms application:
<applicationSettings>
<PhotoImportRobot.My.MySettings>
<setting name="ADIImageRoot" serializeAs="String">

I am deploying sql express as a prerequisite. I have created a custom prerquisite using bootstrap manifest generator. The problem I have is replacing the template.ini file which exists in the sqlexpr32.exe cab file. Winrar and winzip allow me to open the sqlexpr32.exe but will not allow me to edit, add or replace the template.ini.I also cannot find the path where the sqlexpr32.exe extracts to as I want to use that path for the settings file eg "template.ini".[code]

Our main application has both a asp.net and winforms component. There is a class that is used by both sides and needs info from either the web.config or app.config files. The class itself does not know if it's on the client side or on the web server (at this point). We are getting errors when it's attempting read app.config when it's on the web side. Is there a way for the class to tell if it needs to read web.config or app.config?

I have a windows app that uses the shape control which is part of the MS power pack and requires Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs.dll. I am using Publish to build my app and I have tried to change the dll to Include in the properties page but nothing seems to work.
I need a way to have the file included and I am unable to find a external copy and I understand that I cannot just copy the dll from my PC into the installation folder

Have built a project and associated it with a Setup&Deployment Project. The S&D project needs to contain 2 main folders (under User's Desktop) with various formats of files (xmls, txts, dlls) inside them and several subfolders. How can i copy/import these 2 folders and there sub-files/folders into my s&d project?
When adding them in the usual way, they are copied and defined a source path onto the current pc. You can understand what errors this might create when an another targeted pc does not contain those files to the exact location. Is there any way to copy them locally or somehow import them?

i am trying to decrypt a file that was encrypted with Des. However not all of the file is encrypted just a few lines are. Here is an example of the file im trying to decrypt:
Random text
Encrypted Text
MD5 Hash
Encryption Key(Only there for tests)
Number of encrypted lines
The idea is to read the last three lines into variables and use them to decrypt the text. At the moment i use the number of lines - (the number of encrypted lines + 3) to find where the encrypted text starts. Then i was trying to copy the encrypted text to a temp file so i could run the code bellow on it, however i am getting an encoding error apparently i need to be using base64 or something. So my question is can anybody explain to me or show me how i can pull the encrypted text out of the file so that i can use the code bellow on it.
Dim DES As New DESCryptoServiceProvider()
'A 64-bit key and an IV are required for this provider.
'Set the secret key for the DES algorithm.

I have a text box that accepts an 8 digit hex encrypted string and adds it to a listbox1. Then I have a button that when clicked takes the string from listbox1 and
1) reverses the string
2) subtracts 235
3) Converts it back to a 9 digit number
4) Adds it to listbox2 using the code:
Code:
Private Sub decrypt_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles decrypt.Click
[code]...
However something seems to be wrong because it get an arithmetic overflow exception. Does anyone know what happens to be wrong with my code?

As we pass data to a database in a clear cut way, there may be situations, when we might fear data stealing. So can we simply encrypt data at the time of insertion, so that the data privacy will be maintained and the front end can only see the data.

I am using streamreader to read a file that is encrypted using PGP netshare. The file opens fine on my PC and i can read the file using Streamreader when it is unencrypted, but when i add it to an encrypted folder, I get back gibberish when the file is read. Below is a snipit of code, but i feel as though this may not be the problem.

Working in VB in VS 2008 I'm trying to read from an Excel file using Oledb. I have no problem with it when the file is not encrypted, but the client has set a password on the working copy.
I read elsewhere that it's not possible to read an encrypted Excel file this way, but I find that hard to believe.
