I'm being asked to maintain several internal-only web apps for my company. For testing, after making my changes, I've created some staging sites which make use of separate databases. As such, if my users were to mistakenly use this site as if it were the production site, they may enter important data and wonder where it "disappeared" to thinking it was the production server.
I'd like to create a big banner of some sort across the top of the staging site (which ONLY appears on the staging site) to remind my users that they are on the test site. I'd like recommendations on the best way to do this, with the following considerations:
IDE: Visual Studio 2008
Server: Windows 2003 with IIS 6
Language: VB.NET 2.0
Currently all my application that is released is always release in production. However I would like that changed and also have a development side (For testing).
I've tried searching for steps on how to create a development server however I cannot seem to find a tutorial.
In the past I've seen someone release their application in development by having it in on "Debug" option and have it released in production by having it on the "release" option. (I apologize for the vagueness as it was along time ago since I saw it).

View 4 RepliesMy ASP.NET 4.0 Web App is unable to access Network Printers, while debugging on VS 2010. It can access local printers. Seems like it may be a permissions issue. Since VS2010 Debugging runs on ASP.NET Development Server, it must be running under the account I used to log into Windows, right? Does that user need to be added as an Admin in that printers users? Is there any account that I can impersonate to get this working?

View 1 RepliesI created a small project in VB using a SQLExpress db. So far everything has been fine. I need to take the little I've done to the customer for a look and feel approval.
When attempting to publish the project, I get the following errors:
"The install location for prerequisites has not been set to 'component vendor's web site' and the file...." You know the drill.
The two files are SQLEXPR32_x86_ENU.EXE and SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.EXE
I have downloaded the files and put them in the following directory:

View 1 RepliesI am using a installer class as I need a custom action that will read in a xml config file.So when the user double clicks the setup, there will be a config.xml file in the same folder. I would like to read in this config.xml file on install event. The folder will contain setup.exe and config.xml.However, it can't find the config.xml file as it is looking for it under C:windowssystem32. I found this out by using application startup. path. However, the setup folder which contains the setup and config.xml is located on my desktop.I thought it will look for it in the current location. Which would be the setup folder. The difficulty is that my setup folder will be downloaded from the Internet and any user could download it and unzip it anywhere on their computer.[code]

View 1 RepliesI made a little program for Hobby-use, and I like it to be installed by an installer. There's an installer program (Windows Installer 3.1?) deliverd with Visual Studio 2008 but that does not do the job completely. I want a coupling to be made between a program and a the users startup directory.If Windows Installer 3.1 can do that after all, can somebody explain how? If not, is there a free or low cost, simple to use (no scripting) installer program what will do the job? At last: Is there a version of .NET Framework 3.5 that does not require downloading during the user's setup procedure?

View 3 RepliesIve got an app that holds a list of site we have, At each site there are a few devices. The idea is when they click on a site all the details for the site are loaded and then a second thread sits and pings each device to see if its live. Im trying to do this in a seperate thread so if they click another site while its still pinging them it doesn't wait before it switches site. This all seems to be workling fine except if you click through the sites quickly, when you do that it will eventually come up with

View 16 RepliesI'm deploying a VB.Net app (VS 2010 Pro) that requiers the user click a command button to open IE to a financial WEB site and download informaion from the site.

FileNotFoundException:File Not found.My code behind the button is Shell("C:Program Files (x86)Internet Exploreriexplore.exe www,fidelity.com",AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)
This works fine on the development computer. Do I need a way to code this as a relative path? If so,can you tell me how this is done?Throughout the app I have written relative paths to needed files using paths like (Open(Environment. GEtFolderPath (Environment. SpecialFoldder.Desktop) + "File Name). They all work fine when deployed.

View 1 RepliesMy technique for deploying an ASP.NET webapp into production is as follows[code]...
I don't stop the database or run any additional tools to promote to production. It's a small company, and this seems fine. What's wrong with this technique in your opinion?
I need to sync the data of a ms-sql 2005 & 2008 server to my development server (mssql 2005 & 2008). The problem is I can't create .bak files, no permissions (to access the network share where the backup is saved). The problem is not that I may not view the data (I have complete read access to the production server). I can also backup data to csv files and read them in on my system, but that's rather painful (encoding, foreign key reference constraints, having to do it for every table, etc...). The problem is that the admin has no time to set me the necessary permissions (he has larger problems...).
How can I still sync the data to my development server ? I need some kind of syncing to a file, then transport anyhow (manual by FTP if necessary), and then update my development database. I've already tried backing up to a back file on a network share, but that doesn't work either. I don't mind if I have to code a bit in my free time, but I really don't want to do all the low level stuff myself, like resolving constraint dependencies.
