Multithread Chat Server Side Crash?
May 18, 2011
i'm doing a chat for a project, and it works like this. The server connects, the clients connect, one client sends a message to the server, and the server broadcasts it to the other clients. But what I want to do now is to also have the server communicate with the clients. But when I click on the server form, it freezes, and I cant do nothing. I think this is because of me not creating a thread for the communication(I saw this on another forum), but I dont know how to do that. I copied basically all the chat program code from a site, and I dont know much of sockets and what not.

I'm trying to, from a client-side piece, call off to a server-side piece. I need to do this synchronously. On my server-side code, though, I'm calling off to another piece of code, which I want to have a maximum of, say, 10 seconds to return a value. If I don't have a response within 10 seconds, I want to force my own server piece to set my result equal to 0, and return to the client.
Here's what I have on my server-side code so far:
Public Function GetWebResult(ByVal inputParameter As Object) As WebReturnObject Implements IWebInterface.GetWebResult
Dim result As New WebReturnObject
Dim webItem As WebItem = Nothing
[CODE]...
I realize this code is not functional. The problem is that I'm unsure how I would go about getting back into GetWebResult to set the appropriate return values before it is sent back to the client.

I am struckup with a problem from last two days. I am creating a web application using VB.NET, Ajax & RAD Controls. When user clicks on a button I want to open a RAD Window and show the list of ledgers available to the user, so that he can select one from the list. And to open that window I have to call a java script function from client side, which is already achieved using the below code.

Can I send an object from client-side javascript to server-side code via ASP.NET ?

I know this defeats the purpose of client side vs. server side (refer to title of this thread). What I would love to do is build my own custom progress indicator on the client showing how far a server side code has progressed. I figure if I could only get a JavaScript to fire and render a value of some control at pre-defined intervals while the server is working I could make it happen - but alas I'm beginning to believe that this is impossible. Below is some code that performs three 2 sec loops. At the end of each I want to change the visible value of a control on the browser. [Code]

Using the following script:
$("#some_button").click(function() {
var changed = [];
[CODE]...
I need to send back the id, the old value from _1 and the new value from _0 back to the server. What is the best way to format this data so I can easily extract the data from the server side so I can easily email someone for example to let them know which textboxes have changed, what the old values were, and what the new values are
At the serverside level, I am using .NET-3.5 (VB). I know how to send the data bacl. and how to email the data, I just wanted to know how to best format the data at clientside before sending it back. I could have upto 50 sets of id, old, and new values to send back. Sorry for not making that clear earlier.
Example:
How can I modify the script above to generate this?
[
{
"id": "name_0",
"new": "text",

I add an option to a select with jQuery. When I save with an asp button, I don't see the changes on the server side in the click event.
And the HTML is all correct after I add the option.
Is it a coding problem or I don't understand something?
$(selectCourant)
.append($("<option></option>")
.attr("value",$(dropdown).val())
.text($(dropdown + " option:selected").text()));

Ultimately, what I want to accomplish is an AJAX-based messaging system. I already have a database table for messages, and an ASPX to add new messages (and declare old messages no longer relevant).
The current messaging system simply polls the server every 15 seconds, and re-pulls the current message set.
What I am looking to do is: On $(document).ready(), register an ajax callback function that listens for a server-side event (e.g., MessagesUpdated) On table insert/update, fire MessagesUpdated server-side.
This way, whenever the table is updated (or new records added), any clients listening know that new data is available and can re-poll the server then.
Ideally, I'd also like to make the new data available as an event argument (to minimize re-polling the db).
I can find references to something like this in other languages, but I cannot find any actual code examples to get me started.
Assuming this is possible to do via .Net, can anyone help get me started on this?
I'm using the 2.0 Framework. Also while I added a VB.Net tag, I can read C# reasonably well, so please feel free to post in either language.

I have simple ASP.net web form. With a simple click on a button i need to call a the Multithread process in order to execute my querry in SQL Server DB. I know that my querry willl take up to 45 min to be executed. While the process is running i need to display some status information like: Starting time, Time elapsed, % of completed...So after running the process i got the following error message: "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding."So i have 2 problems to fix:
Avoid getting timeout while processing/calling the stored procedure. I tried to add cmd.CommandTimeout = 1000 but it didn't work out!
Display correctly Time elapsed and % Completed while processing.
Here's my code in the main form:
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Configuration

I created a windows application service that runs every 20 seconds to collect data from avaya cms and then dump it into a database. I did this using a timer. Since I had to have access to the clipboard to get the data and parse it, I had to be in STA. Unfortunately,just putting the STA before the Main() (or any other sub) did not keep the service in single thread mode. So I had to create a new thread and join it like so:
Public Class CMS
Protected Overrides Sub OnStart(ByVal args() As String)
Timer1.Enabled = True
Timer1.Start()

I have a simple tcpclient/server messenger running. Everything works great, except for when a client exits the software. When someone exits, is crashes the server with various exceptions and the server has to be restarted, as well as the clients. What I am looking for is a way to properly "log out" a client BUT leave any other connected client on so that is no break in the chat. Then the person that logged out or a new person can join back in whenever they choose.
CLIENT
''CHAT SERVICE
Dim clientSocket As New System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient()
Dim serverStream As NetworkStream
Dim readData As String
Dim infiniteCounter As Integer

I have an ASP program that synchronizes 2 databases. I also have a VB.NET program compiled down to an EXE that fills the source database before the synch happens. In the back of my mind I know I should be able to link the VB & ASP .NET programs together since that's the power of .NET. Alternatively, if I could run the EXE from ASP it would be just as well for my project. I do have the source to both programs. The ASP script was written with a text editor - the VB was in VB 2008 Express.
assume I know nothing of linking assemblies and such because I don't - I just read that in an article. I'd prefer ASP but if necessary I could use the ASP.NET script to launch the EXE. The code is legacy ASP with VBScript so all our ASP.NET stuff is the VB flavor as well. C# makes my other programmer's head hurt so for his sake this will have to remain VB.
Is there a way I can relatively easily launch the EXE pre-sync program and have it run when the ASP synch script starts?
The server is MS Windows Server 2003 SP2 / IIS 6.0 / the .NET version is 2.0.50727.3603.
By the way - I'd love to "learn to use .NET properly" but time is short for this project and in-depth research will have to wait.
EDIT: Aaron's answer below gets me most of the way to the solution but I'm getting:
Exception Details: System.ComponentModel.Win32 Exception: Access is denied
Source Error: Line 17: process1.Start();
SOLUTION: Aaron's answer below plus the knowledge that ~/ in MapPath is the virtual root of the website and the file to run is relative to that.

I am working on the client-server on my application and I am unsure which one of those method that I should use for the chat server. When I tried this:
Dim port As Int32 = 13000
Dim localAddr As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1")
server = New TcpListener(localAddr, port)[code].....
I found that both of these methods are the same, I can connect to the server when I use either of them. tell me which one of them is the easy way and which one of them that I should use to connect to the server, send message...etc?

I wanted to build a front end web page so that I can start and stop various programs on my server remotely. I know that Shell will open something locally, but how can I make an ASP.Net page which activates programs server-side? Googling got me the "Shell" method, but I don't think that works server-side.

I have been searching for days and months on youtube,google and everywhere else about how to create a Multi user chat system, where everybody can talk to each other all at once. Some people say Winsock is the way to go and others say TCP/IP is the way to go. I have little to no experience in either one of them. So if somebody can give me a really great turtioal or show me the guide lines on how to create a server and a client I would highly appreacite it. I am using Visual Basic 2008 express.
