We have an app that needs to access network resources. It's written in VB.Net. The application can't access the files on another server via a UNC path. How can we find out what user the application is truly running as and how can it be changed? We tried this KB from Microsoft... but it didn't work.

View 2 RepliesI wrote an application which parses a website and downloads an mp4 file from website. User can select the path where he wants to download the video. When I try to download I get an exception for the file, Access Denied to Path. When I gave the permissions to folder that I chose, then works fine. How can I resolve that problem? End-User will select the folder. How do I change the permissions?
View 1 RepliesI'm developing an application in vb.net. You drag any type of file onto the exe, and a window pops up with some options for the file, then it saves the file to a different location, works some SQL magic, etc. It works great for the most part. The only issue I've found is that if the path of the file contains any spaces, the application will crash immediately with the error window:[URl]..I'm using: Private filename as String = Command$ This is located right inside my form's class declaration, not within a sub/function.Without this line, my program runs fine (although useless, without accessing the file).I've also tried (I think this was it, I don't have the code with me at the moment): Private filename as String = Environment.CommandLine So, in vb.net, is there a way to drag a file onto an exe and use that path name, even if there are spaces in the path name?

View 1 RepliesI would like to ask some advise for the best thing to do regarding with this matter. Im working with a client-server application and I should run a pdf file from the server in the client application. The file name is the only saved in the database(MySql) and the full path is in the server. What technique should i used i order to access this file in the server., I planned to use the winsock. Im working in vb.net.
View 1 RepliesAs some of you may know, I'm trying to develop a client/server application that requires sending files and text. Text is not a problem, this works fine, and for some of the part, sending files works, but they get slightly mangled in the process. For example, I used a 4x1 BMP that was alternately coloured red and white and tried sending it across. The output was the correct image dimensions, but the colours were wrong. It was more like a very dark red and very dark grey. I inspected the files with notepad, and the header was the same, but the data was different.
I did some research and apparently need to use a BinaryReader and BinaryWriter as opposed to reading the data as a string (like I was when it was being mangled) but now the data is all wrong, even filesize is different.The code below is a simple example of code for reading an image and then writing it again elsewhere using Binary Read/Write.

I am trying to read and display a file using MapPath as follows :
Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf"
Dim FilePath As String = MapPath("../Document/123.pdf")
Response.WriteFile(FilePath)
Response.End()
This procedure will work fine and display in the browser. However, if I save the file to C:Document123.pdf, how can I access this file using relative path in MapPath function. Is there an option to access the file which is saved out of IIS server? I am using vb.net 2003.
I want to connect a database that is located on centralized server. How can I use a windows form VB.NET application to access it? Is this possible?
How can I maintain a single user entry (e.x== used of INSERT command)?
Are both of the above things possible? If so, how can I go about implementing them?
I have browser control in a winform application that navigates to a secure intranet location. In the web application that sits in the browser are several links that bring up other windows outside of the browser... like dialog type browser windows that may contain information like user information... etc.
When I run the application in a regular browser, it runs the new window perfectly but when I click on the same button link in the web application, it brings up a windows with no data saying that I don't have access to the server.
I am having a windows application. That downloads files from server and write into the local directory. It works fine. When we try the same appliication in Windows 7. IT shows an error Access to the path denied (While writing to the local directory).

I am having trouble getting the path of my application's executable file at runtime. This application is being started by another executable and whenever I try to use Application.ExecutablePath I get the path to that application instead of mine.
[code]...
Neither of these give me the path of the program in which those two lines are exectured, they only tell what program started this program.
when i try to write to a file I get the error:

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user. To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.But when I add: <identity impersonate="true"/ to web.config I get the following error when my application trys to open a DB to read it:

A routinely used application suddenly became impossible to access, with and error code indicating that the "VB Backup\Backup" file cannot be found. When I click File Open, the projects display as always. I select the application, double click the .sln file--and nothing happens. When I try to access the .vb file in Solution Explorer, it says "Cannot find VB Backup\Backup Files."
What are the Backup Files, when are they created, and why would they suddenly be "gone?" Is there any way to rebuild the Backup Files? I used the application last night and it worked fine. Today it can't be opened because the Backup Files cannot be found.
I have backups of the application folders, but get the same error message. Cannot be opened because the Backup FIles cannot be found.

I'm need of some way of finding the UNC Path of a share via a script or command line or even a custom created program. I'm trying to automate deletion of users and the setup is a bit complicated.
Home folders are set up like this:
We create a folder on a Disk on a fileserver.When this folder is created, a share is automatically created on a lower levelThen the DFS Links are set up towards the newly created share.
Now, when deleting a user, I could just delete the DFS Folder, meaning that the target folder is the one being deleted. But since it's a share, that cannot happen.

They them select the files they want to store under a project name and the names are placed in a database. My problem is it stores the mapped file path not the network path. (ie N:examples estfile.txt I need \myserverexamples estfiles.txt) That is because the person that reads this database may not have their network drives mapped to the same letters.
