Hi there.
Not sure if this is correct messageboard, so sorry if it's isn't.
I have recently started using INtrexx Extreme at work to create portals and applications. While designing these there is a button to view your work in a browser.
When i do this, i get a browser which just says 'Service Unavailable'.
If I go into IIS and browse the website, it brings the same thing up.
I found a thread online that say's if you go into the properties of the 'My Websites' folder and check the box 'Run WWW service in IIS 5.0 isolation mode'. When I do this it solves the 'Service Unavailable' problem (although a cross appears next to the 'My Websites' folder) but when i try to view the default site again it just brings up the page cannot be displayed message.
My internet connection is working, just incase anyone thought of that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I guess the web development forum may be the right one. This has nothing to do with the .NET framework ( and I don't know the answer )

Someone please save my sanity.
The .Net framework replaced COM concepts with GAC concepts, which I am very thankfull for. I have now written some dlls that I would like to deploy to the GAC, and I am about to burst into tears.
COM is out and GAC is in, yet when you create a deployment package it has options to install a dll to COM but not to the GAC...
Please tell me there is a way to deploy dlls to the GAC that does not involve stretching GACUTIL.EXE further than it was intended, or any user intervention for that matter. In other words automated deployment...

You probably don't actually want to install to the GAC. Installing is much safer and easier if every program has its own copy of any dependencies, and you run no risk of versioning problems.
Unfortunately if any of your dependencies have strong names (signed with a private key, to give the assembly a PublicKeyToken property) the runtime looks in the GAC before it looks in your local folders. Another installation could put an incompatible version in the GAC that would override your local copy, if it had the same assembly version number (or if the publisher used Publisher Policy to override the version used).
You also have a different servicing problem - if a third-party component has a security problem, you would have to redistribute a new version of your program, because they will be unable, typically, to detect the presence of their library in your private installation folder. You may want this level of control if they haven't fully managed compatibility with their previous version, though.
Anyway, if you really want to do it, you have to use a Windows Installer package such as Visual Studio's deployment package. To install to the GAC from Visual Studio, open the File System Editor in your setup project, right-click the root (File System on Target Machine) and select Add Special Folder, Global Assembly Cache Folder. You can now drop the assemblies in here. If you want them somewhere else as well you will need to add an extra copy.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the reply. We are busy doing a framework for a client that has to be shared across all applications, so we prefer to reference from the GAC. THe client is running a large number of small exe's (from VB6 days) so keeping track of all the dll's becomes a bit of a pain.
Thanks for the help

Could somebody please point me to a tutorial on how to create a Help system similar to Microsoft application? I know it could be done with .HLP or .CHM type files, or even in HTML. What is the preferred approach and how is it done in the the C# part of Visual Studio?

Hi,
I assume you are looking for the procedure to call the help file from your application. If this is the said scenario, then I have created a sample project that you may download from:
http://www.speedyshare.com/234286855.html[^]
If you are looking to create a help file ( a Help System), then refer to the below mentioned link:

I hope this would be helpful.

If you want a free program for creating chm files you can use Microsoft's HTML Workshop. Keep in mind that it is free for a reason  .

Hi
I am trying to read a file and determine if the file is a word document, and retrieve its version number too.
Please help.
Thanks

This snippet would read a Word Document with C# www.c-sharpcorner.com/Code/2002/Mar/WordFromDotNet.asp[^]. You can try out this and see if there are properties en route, which help you to determine the version.

They are syntactic sugar for methods with a well define semantic meaning. If you want to see how they work I suggest you look at an assembly with ILDASM to see what is generated. If that isn't what you mean then you might want to ask a more detailed (less vague) question.

Hi,
The Set Statement is for setting values for your properties. The Get Statement is for returning values from your properties. For more information, please refer to the below mentioned links:

I am using VS 2008 to develop a Web service that uses few windows API functions in the server side:
[DllImport("User32.dll")]
public static extern Int32 FindWindow(String lpClassName, String lpWindowName);
[DllImport("User32.dll")]
public static extern Int32 SetForegroundWindow(int hWnd);
[DllImport("User32.dll")]
public static extern Int32 GetForegroundWindow();
In the development environment all is working well.
I deployed the web service to another machine with same OS (windows XP SP2) and same .net frameworks installed (no development environment there - Installed 1.1, 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5) and these functions are not working (I used logs to watch their operation separately and they are simply not doing anything). I assume therefore that there is a general problem invoking Win32 API on that machine for some reason.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Those calls are pretty old, it seems odd to me that they may not be there. Does nothing happen when you call them ?

Like i described - nothing happens (in deplyment environment) - these functions are called but doesn't do the operation they need to.
of course they are there (in the DLLs), but somehow the framework don't really get them...
|
|
|
|

I made some progress with this:
I created an EXE application and Tested FindWindow exactly as it is used from my web service (same call, same parameters, etc.). it works fine (finds the window's handle).
I tried changing the user for iis from ASPNET to administrator in the machine.config to see if permissions is the problem ( verified user with process explorer), but even with administrator it is not working...
Any ideas?
Thanks.

TAPI is what you need, I believe.

Thanks a lot Christian.
I know that TAPI is the solution. But is there any sample code or some articles on that so can I develop telephony application on VB.Net.

A task which uses BeginInvoke is supposed to use EndInvoke to clean up; fire-and-forget semantics are explicitly discouraged. If one wants to launch a fire-and-forget thread, what disadvantage is there to simply saying:
Dim Th as New Thread(me.ThreadProc)
Th.IsBackground = True
Th.Start
as a means of running ThreadProc asynchronously? If Th exits, is some cleanup required, or will it get garbage-collected if no reference to it exists?
|

This code is fine for running an async operation. .NET takes care of all the complicated stuff, so you don't need to do any explicit cleanup, the thread will finish and cleanup automatically when ThreadProc method exits.
The only thing to look out for is marshalling to the main thread if you want to update / read any ui elements, e.g. setting .Text property on a label control from within ThreadProc. In this case, you must do something like:
Private Delegate Sub UpdateLabelTextDelegate(ByVal value As String)
Private Sub UpdateLabelText(ByVal value As String)
If Label1.InvokeRequired Then
Label1.BeginInvoke(New UpdateLabelTextDelegate(AddressOf UpdateLabelText), New Object() {value})
Else
Label1.Text = value
End If
End Sub
Also, the following can be used as a shortcut to read the label text (only in VS2008 though):
Dim value As String = If(Label1.InvokeRequired, CStr(Label1.Invoke(Function() Label1.Text)), Label1.Text)
