• .NET Development Authorization in WS -> WS access problem

  Hi, I have a problem with user authorization when connecting from one WebService to another in the same domain. Supposing we have ws1.domain.com and ws2.domain.com machines with IIS. ws1 uses Windows 2003 Web Edition and ws2 uses Windows XP. On ws1 I deployed WebService with ping() method, which simply connects to ws2 and call another one ping() web method. IIS is configured to use Windows Authentication on both machines. Now when I'm on ws1 I can use something like https:// localhost /webservices/ws.asmx op=ping and it works ok - ws1 connects to another machine and gives me a response. Trying the same using https:// ws1.domain.com /webse ...Show All

• SQL Server Delivery Channels and Protocols

  Here is what we want to do, and I have not been able to spend enough time to see if this is possible out of the box, so thus the posting to the group. It seems that the XSLTFormatter uses the DeviceTypeName to help allow for different XSLT definitions. It would seem that the DeliveryChannelName would be the better choice, since you can define multiple DeliveryChannels for the same protocol. Also, why store the DeviceTypeName in the NSSubscriberDevices if the DeliveryChannelName maps back to a DeviceTypeName in essence if you were to join NSDeliveryChannels and then use the ProtocolName instead The reason for the question is trying to determ ...Show All

• .NET Development ? How to share strong name key files ?

  With Visual Studio 2003, we could share a single key file among all our assemblies, simply by referencing it in AssemblyInfo.cs. Now we have to reference it from the project settings "Signing" page, and when you select an existing ".snk" file, it always makes a copy of it to the project folder, and uses that copy instead. Is there any way to make it use the shared ".snk" file Hmm...  Adding a link to an "external" key file (snk or pfx) to the project seems to enable its use as the signing key just fine for me (selectable via properties UI and all).  Is this not a supported scenario ...Show All

• SQL Server Pakcage Error...How to read files on a different domain?

  So did some troubleshooting on the my previous post - http://forums.microsoft.com/forums/ShowPost.aspx PostID=272319&SiteID=1 Thanks to everyone who tried to help... So I got some insight into what is happening. My package was having trouble reading files on a remote domain although I mapped the drives locally. This does not cause either running the package to failed either through directly running under VSS, or Execution Utility. But it failed when I try to schedule it through SQL server agent. I wonder if it is the security context problem and asking for help of how to get around that issue. So I have a for each file loop cont ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom Rules Development

  Okay, okay so I know that any rules I write now will need to be re-written with the next release of Visual Studio, however I write (and maintain my own rules and now I'm stuck) .... I've been tasked to write a rule that checks for multiple return statements in methods, this is to help enforce the structured programming principle of methods having single entry/exit points that some of the junior developers consistently ignore. The problem I have is that with introspection I only get the MSIL, which is of course optimised. The optimisation process [is so good that it] actually restructures the code, eliminating all return opCodes exc ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Major POOM/EDB bug in Windows Mobile 5

  Hi all, There seems to be a bug in the WM5 platform relating to POOM and the underlying EDB. The issue : For instance look at the IContact interface. It allows for most of the fields to be 1022 characters in size. If you actually fill a couple ( let's say 8 ) those fields by the maximum size, the net size of the contact would be at least 8 * 1022 = 8176. EDB only allows 8 KB per record, which means the contact can not be saved. I admit, this is a very unlikely case to have so much characters in the fields, but the documentation should still be clear about it. I haven't tried, but I guess the same problem applies to ...Show All

• SQL Server strange refresh of the parameter area

  Hi, I have a couple of parameters on a report that prompts the user. My problem is that I fill a value in the 1st parameter and to fill the next one I have to click twice on the input because of a strange refresh that my browser does when I left the 1st parameter. This is happening for all parameters, not only between the 1st and the 2nd. Do you have any idea how can I make to avoid this because is so unfreandly for the user! The problem is having any code in the default expression, my assumption is you might be defaulting the date. Using VB, or even just =1 is enough for RS to have to reevaluate. There ...Show All

• Visual Studio Error. Failed to load expression host assembly. Trying to use local report manually copied to mapi dir (VSTO project)

  You may see from earlier posts that I'm having difficulty deploying report solutions (VS2005 B2) and VSTO. My VSTO app opens a winform report viewer.  Even very basic reports (no data) fail. My last attempt was to use the report path option.  The first error said the report def was not found in the dir 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033', so I manually copied the rdlc file there.  Now I get another error "Processing Errors" "Failed to load exressions host assembly.  Details: Could not load file or assempbl 'expression_host_601.....' version=10.2.50215.44, culture=nutral,...  Failed to grant permis ...Show All
