• .NET Development Passing Windows Identity to multiple servers

  I have a web application that uses Windows Authentication. From this web app, I want to call a web service. Now the tricky part is that I need to pass the identity of the logged on user to the web service as well. There may be some code within the web service for which I want to impersonate the user who is logged on to the web application. Can someone suggest anything on this Please help.. Its urgent. You can either set Windows Authentication for the web service too or use WSE's kerberos token to pass user credentials. Hope it helps Rgds Rodrigo ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem with 'Oracle client' and 'ODPnetOnly'

  Hi all ! I have both Oracle Client and ODPnetonly on my system. They have their different homes. If the path of Oracle Client (D:\oracle\ora90\BIN) is before the path of ODPnetonly (D:\odpnetonly\bin), then I have a problem. In this case, my web applications (in C#.net) don’t work but my console applications (in C#.net) do. And if I change the path of ODPnetonly before the path of Oracle, then my web-applications work but my console applications don't. So please tell me what is wrong with my system. Is there any problem regarding installation of 'Oracle Client' or ODPnetonly (I installed 'Oracle Client' before the ODPnetonly) Thanks and Regards, Vikas OK, I think I understand what is happening.

• SQL Server System crash

  Hello, From time to time, our production system crashes and reboots while running some data warehouse load packages. There is nothing in the logs; it just seems like the reset button is pushed. The situation occurs at different moments in the batch and not every night, but lets says once every two weeks or more frequent. We are running Windows 2003 server and SQL Server 2005 SP1 incl. hotfixes. Does anyone of you have this issue, or is this a hardware issue without any doubt Could there be any chance it's in the SQL Server software Regards, Jeroen Sean, Tom, Thnx for the reply's. Indeed it's quite a memory intentive package. I believe we even did some tweaking on the buffersizes in the pack ...Show All

• SQL Server Log Reports

  Hi, Does Anyone has any idea that how do we extract the log reports that are generated whenever we run a package onto a text file , i mean the whole report rather than just a single message. vikram kansal wrote: Sorry just missed your post and posted again as i thought my previous post didnt get through as i got disconnected... I m not being rude ... OK, fair enough! vikram kansal wrote: secondly if i am correct the solution you are suggesting isnt it only specific to when i am running my packages via cmd and not by SSIS builder.

• Visual Studio Team System Data Driven Unit Test question

  There has to be an easy way to do this but for some reason I cannot find it. We have 6 different responses that we are expecting back for the data we send. We want to be able to adjust the distribution between the responses so I have seperated the data into 6 different tables and created 6 methods. The problem is that if I use the Data Driven aproach in the samples it runs through all the data in the table every time the test runs. I only want one set of data each time but still want to go through each row before repeating. Is there a way to setup the DataSource/DataAccessMethod to grab only 1 new row each time the test is ran instead of grabbing all the rows Eventually we are going to be using a 32 client load for an 8 hour perio ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions stdafx.h problems - a linking issue

  I'm not very familiar with how to use "stdafx.h" so I imagine this is the problem... I have my main entry point: // Tester.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application. #include "stdafx.h" #include "Other.h" int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { printHelloWorld(); return 0; } ...and my header file: //Other.h #pragma once const char* str = "Hello World.\n"; void printHelloWorld() { printf_s(str); } ...and this works as expected.

• Windows Forms Override forecolor in textbox.enabled = false on windows form

  Is it possible to override the change in forecolor when setting a textbox to enabled = false   I would like the control to be disabled but display normally.  I have been able to set the backcolor to white, but it seems to ignore the forecolor setting and leave it as pale grey. Alternatively, is there another way to disable the textbox without using the enabled property Set the ReadOnly property to True. This helps preventing interaction: private void textBox1_Enter(object sender, EventArgs e) { SendKeys.Send("{TAB}"); } ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. C# Express SP1 - Need to install?

  I see that the first Service Pack for all the Visual Studio editions has been released. As users of GSE/C# Express, should we be installing SP1 I'm guessing Yes, but not seen anything in these forums about it so far. errolian wrote: I see that the first Service Pack for all the Visual Studio editions has been released. As users of GSE/C# Express, should we be installing SP1 Yes. Several bugs that directly affect XNA GSE are fixed in VS 2005 SP1. Plus, SP1 fixes many issues that make VS 2005 incompatible with Vista (XNA GSE is still not supported on Vista, but SP1 is a big step in the right direction). --Stephen ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Application fails to start under Vista: "A referral was returned from the server." Manifest problem?

  I'm working on migrating a driver management application (written in Visual C++) to Vista. It requires access to HKLM, so it needs to run with admin access permissions. For testing purposes, we've been modifying secpol.msc to run it in admin approved mode, but obviously, that's not the right thing to do. The right thing to do, from what I can tell, is to add a <trustInfo> tag to the application manifest (which is embedded in the .exe as a resource). I did that, but now the application fails to start under Vista at all, with the error message "A referral was returned from the server." It still works fine under XP. The manifest is pasted below. Does anything look obviously incorrect If not, is there anything that could interact badly w ...Show All
