We are getting complaints from the customer that they have to keep on refresh (Ctrl+F5) on the page or sometimes clear the cookies to reflect the changes done on upgrade.
Especially, when we upload CSS/JS files or Images sometimes.
To overcome this situation, I did some research and found one solution to append Query string with the name of image or CSS files. But it does not seem to be a coherent solution. Then I used NuGet packages for Bundle. It seems to be the solution but I have another issue like I am calling individual CSS file for each page (page specific) and to make a bundle for the single file is not the good idea.
What should i follow as good approach to overcome this situation where changes can reflect on the server after uploading CSS/Images or JS files.

You've already mentioned it, a querystring variable on the css\js paths.
|
|
|
|
|
Should I go with this option only?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Okay, I will opt the same.
Thanks

Mads Kristensen wrote a blog post explaining how to do this back in 2014: Cache busting in ASP.NET[^]
However, I'd be inclined to use the query-string rather than a fake path. It's a fairly simple change:
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Caching;
using System.Web.Hosting;
public class Fingerprint
{
public static string Tag(string rootRelativePath)
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(rootRelativePath)) return string.Empty;
if (rootRelativePath[0] != '~')
{
rootRelativePath = "~" + rootRelativePath;
}
string result = HttpRuntime.Cache[rootRelativePath] as string;
if (result == null)
{
string absolute = HostingEnvironment.MapPath(rootRelativePath);
DateTime date = File.GetLastWriteTime(absolute);
result = rootRelativePath + "?v=" + date.Ticks;
HttpRuntime.Cache.Insert(rootRelativePath, result, new CacheDependency(absolute));
}
return result;
}
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="@Fingerprint.Tag("~/content/file.css")" />

Wasn't there some other setting that automatically forces updates the CSS?

Only if you disable caching on the files, which will degrade the performance of your site.

This is a nice ASP.NET UrlRouting tool I have ever tried nowadays. I developed an asp.net web form app using this tool. It's great working my local IIS. If I deploy to my web hosting, it's giving an error about SecurityPermission. Please help me!

often we attach role with action like below way
[Authorize(Roles = "Admin, SuperUser")]
[Authorize(Users="Jacquo, Steve", Roles="Admin, SuperUser")]
Users : Comma-separated list of usernames that are allowed to access the action method.
Roles : Comma-separated list of role names. To Access the action method, users must be in at least one of these roles.
[Authorize(Roles = "Producer")]
[Authorize(Roles = "Admin")]
public ActionResult Details(int id) {
}
now see authorize and role name is hard coded with action method. suppose action Details is associated with admin role which is hard coded but how could i attach more role to details action or remove any role from details action at run time. i guess it is not possible because asp.net mvc not providing anything built in.
i search google to see that anyone does it anything such as what i am looking for. unfortunately found no similar write up.
so i need some guidance that how could i develop a UI from where admin can associate role with action instead of hard coding at development time.
so tell me your think how could i associate a role or multiple roles with action from a custom UI.
also tell me how could i check at run time that user has that role when user try to access a specific action.
please discuss in details for designing this part what i am looking for. still it is not clear to you what i am looking for then tell me i will try to explain the same in more details.
thanks

I think these can't be dynamic due to the fact that .net only inistialises the attribute the once and as the valid roles\users are set on initialisation they are set forever once created. To do what you want to do you'll probably need to write your own validation attribute that gets the list of valid users\roles from some other location rather than the attribute parameters. I'm sure if you google for how to override the default validation attributes, or how to write your own you'll find some sample code, they're fairly straight-forward.

Hi,
does anyone have a simple ASP.NET code snippet that accepts a internal Windows user name as a parameter and can retrieve the real name (first and last name) and the user group membership via LDAP?
Are there any spcial pre-requisites to implement this or
can this be done with built in ASP.NET means?
Thanks Dirk

Hi ,
Need to get the query string with values on button click with or with out using jquery .
like if my url is like this:
http://localhost:56121/Reports/ProjectScorecardByFilter?id=3" , here want to change the id value to 4 then click on button . In the controller method need to get the value of id as 4 .
|
|
|
|
|
Use the @Url.Action[^] method.
Using a hyperlink:
<a href="@Url.Action("ProjectScorecardByFilter", "Reports", new { id = 3 })">Link</a>
Using a form:
<form method="get" action="@Url.Action("ProjectScorecardByFilter", "Reports")">
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="3" />
<button type="submit">Button...</button>
</form>
Using jQuery:
<button data-link="@Url.Action("ProjectScorecardByFilter", "Reports", new { id = 3 })">JS Button...</button>
<script>
$(function(){
$(document).on("click", "button[data-link]", function(){
var href = this.getAttribute("data-link");
location.assign(href);
});
});
</script>

I have an issue with my ASP.NET MVC4 application when I publish it to Azure. The roleManager part is not working and the application returns an error when it reaches to this code in my view:
bool isAdmin = User.IsInRole("admin");
And the error is the following:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
SQLExpress database file auto-creation error:
The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the application's App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the application is running on either Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008R2, special configuration steps are necessary to enable automatic creation of the provider database. Additional information is available at: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=160102. If the application's App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the application's directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist.
If the application's App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the application's App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the application's App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server account's credentials are used when creating the new database.
Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine.
The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

Interestingly in my local environment, it works fine, and it happens only in Azure.
For publishing to Azure I reconfigured the following properties in my web.config file as well, BUT I am still suspicious if I am missing some configuration somewhere else, since other parts of the application work fine such as login and registration:
Connection String:
<connectionStrings>
<!--<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="Data Source=(LocalDb)\MSSQLLocalDB;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\aspnet-Portal.mdf;Initial Catalog=aspnet-Portal;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />-->
<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="Data Source=tcp:***,1433;Initial Catalog=***;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=***;Password=***;MultipleActiveResultSets=False;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;Connection Timeout=30;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
And my Entity Framework configuration:
<entityFramework>
<!--<defaultConnectionFactory type="System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.LocalDbConnectionFactory, EntityFramework">-->
<defaultConnectionFactory type="System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.SqlConnectionFactory, EntityFramework">
<parameters>
<!--<parameter value="mssqllocaldb" />-->
<parameter value="Data Source=Data Source=***,1433;Initial Catalog=***;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=***;Password=***;MultipleActiveResultSets=False;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;Connection Timeout=30;" />
</parameters>
</defaultConnectionFactory>
<providers>
<provider invariantName="System.Data.SqlClient" type="System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer" />
</providers>
</entityFramework>
I Was wondering, if there is any other configuration which I need to modify for RoleManager in order to work in Azure?
Thank you for your time and consideration.

The error message was very descriptive and quite straight forward? It can't connect to SQL Express on the server using the connection string given. If SQL Express is not installed then no configuration or code changes are going to resolve that.

Hi,
I have an ASP.Net MVC Application in which I am using Web Api for Business Logic, I have completed the first page, when I click a button on the first page I need to go to the second page, here I have doubt, should I call the .cshtml, or .html or Controller Get should I call to load the second page or should I add all the components to the same old page with jQuery scripting (I mean single page).
Which is better approach please let me know I am using the ASP.Net MVC, Web Api and jQuery. If I have to call the MVC Controller (not the Api Controller) using the button click then how should I call it using jQuery? Any code snippet, a link or even suggestion would be very helpful.
I am new to the MVC development - thanks in advance my friends.
Thanks,
Abdul Aleem

The answer all depends on your specific requirements. Usually you have a form that submits to an action on the same controller and that action will do validation and processing and if it is successful it redirects you to the second page by returning a RedirectToAction. You always redirect or link to actions on controllers, never views.
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult PageOne()
{
MyModel model = new MyModel();
return View(model);
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult PageOne(MyModel model)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
return View(model);
}
return RedirectToAction("PageTwo");
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult PageTwo()
{
return View();
}
I suggest you get a book on MVC or at least go through some basic tutorials (google for "MVC Music Store") as all these basic topics will be covered.

How can I call the MVC Controller using jQuery? and one more thing is, can't I call the cshtml page directly using jQuery, because I want to avoid one extra call from cshtml to MVC then MVC to Web Api, instead of that I want to directly call cshtml from button click, that cshtml calls the Web Api directly?
Means I want to avoid MVC Controls calls, instead I want to call the cshtml and then Web Api directly? Am I supposed to do that? If I can can you please give me a small script or some suggestion or Link.
If I am not supposed to call Web Api directly from cshtml then please let me know then please help to call the MVC action method from the button click of the other cshtml page using jQuery.
Thanks a lot my friend.
Thanks,
Abdul Aleem

A view or .cshtml page won't render without a controller action result, thus MVC.
Yes, you can call a controller action using JQuery. I have a controller called Ajax in which I have JsonResults instead of ActionResults.
I call the JsonResult using $Ajax and send it a model but using primitives, and just return a model "return Json(modelName);"
If it ain't broke don't fix it
