• .NET Development SoapException throws differently by server

  I have a ASP.NET 1.1 web site calling a ASP.NET 1.1 web service on the same server and the SoapExceptions being thrown between the service and the site are different between two of our servers. This application has been working fine on Windows 2000 and on the first Windows 2003 IIS 6 implementation but when we began the migration we started having issues. Are there any settings in IIS 6, .NET, or WIndows 2003 that impact how SoapExcpetions are thrown/handled between a .NET web site and a .NET web service Thanks for the help! The server that has the issue never throws just the 10003 message it always has the System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException before it. The one that works always throws the 1 ...Show All

• Visual Basic Newbie Question about Windows Service (first timer)?

  First off let me apologize for what I'm sure will be a somewhat long post. I'm totally new to Windows services so I want to be as clear as possible in terms of what I've done. OK. I think that I'm about halfway there with what I am trying to accomplish. I have a program which is written in VB 6. When it is launched, it calls 3 additional programs (all written in VB 6). This works fine but the problem is that I've got the first program in the StartUp folder but it only starts when somebody logs onto the system. I want to write a program in VB 2005 that will run as a service and that will in turn call this program (so it'll always run when the server restarts whether anyone logs onto the system or not). I've never even look ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS loses layout of precedence constraints when saving.

  This is more a medium level annoyance than a problem. When I save a package, close it and later re-open it, the precendence constraints end up all over the place making my neatly layed out diagram a shambles. Call me anally retentive if you like (you wont be the first ), but I find this extremely annoying. Does anybody else have this problem Does anyone have a solution This kind of sucks. I use the auto-layout under the Format menu, and when the designer screws things up I just reformat it with the menu. I know this doesn't help if you like to customize your own layout, but from one OCD to another this causes the least headaches! ...Show All

• Smart Device Development OutOfMemory error on JasJar

  I am having a memory problem with an application on the JasJar. The application runs fine on iMate PDA2K with 128MB memory (PPC2003SE). It also runs well on iPAQ on WM5 with 64MB memory (not sure about the exact version of WM5). However, on the iMate JasJar, also with 64MB memory but a slightly later version of WM5 than iPAQ, I am consistently getting OutOfMemory exception under certain conditions. I have run the RPM on PPC2003SE but cannot see why I am event close to the limit. I look at the GC Heap over time. Shoud I be looking at something else I have read the blog entries of David Kline about RPM and Steven Pratschners's memory management, but it is not explicit about what I need to look out for. Can anyone point me in t ...Show All

• .NET Development access a database view and retrieve changes

  Hello, I want to know an efficient way to know when a table changes, I'm using C# and I have access to views of a table, but I need to transfer the smallest amount of info to know if the table have change, and then retrieve the inserted values. Thanks If you can only pull from server views and don't have any way to set things up for the server to push notifications to you, I think the only way to make this work somewhat efficiently is if you have some field or combination of fields you can query on to find new rows. For example, a datetime field that would tell you when a row was inserted, or updated. You would still have to periodically query for updated rows, but at least you could only retrieve ...Show All

• Windows Forms Using a program created in vb.net on another computer

  I am unsure how I can use an application I have created on another computer that does not have vb or .net installed on it. I am using the express edition. smithju@gmail.com.(donotspam ) thanks you need to install .NET Framework 2.0 on the computers you wish to run your app. if you do not, then your app will not run.

• Visual Basic Maximum number of warnings has been exceeded.

  I'm using VS 2005, after VB6 to VB.NET conversion we have fixed all the errors but still have unidentified number of warnings. Is there any way to increase this limit of 101 warning you can see after compiling I want to actually see the total number of warnings to get an idea how much work is there. I too am going through the migration process and find this to be very frustrating. Knowing exactly how badly it is broken can assist in trying to identify that it's just tooooo broken, and rewrite these certain bits. (And I'd probably comment it out - or stub it) and work on the other bits... Having been using C++ and C# where you "see em all" I have always been happy with this... I hope th ...Show All

• Visual C# Process class used from Windows Service fails

  I'm having trouble with the Process class. I have a Windows Service running as SYSTEM and I want it to spawn processes on behalf of users. I get the user's password there securely and create a SecureString. I get a Win32Exception "Access Denied" on Process.Start. If I run the service under the same account as the user I want to start for, I still get the exception except it says "The handle is invalid". I've checked and checked the SecureString and I've made it read-only so I don't think that's it. I actually had gotten it to work some time ago if I impersonate the client but this isn't really practical since the job can be queued up waiting for some time. I've signed all the assemblies involved and I've given the ...Show All

• SQL Server Snapshot Size Limit

  Hi, Has anyone tried to create and view a snapshot 2 Mb or more in size Is there a rough estimate on the limit before either the server or the client machine that is browsing the snapshot hangs So far from our tests, a 1.4 Mb snapshot loads after 5 minutes, and a 3 Mb snapshot loads indefinitely (so far, it's 2 hours and running, with the client machine's page file being maxed out). And besides reducing the data for the snapshot, what else can be done to avoid this Any information is appreciated. Thanks! For long running reports, you may want to configure the report for snapshot execution. You can set the report server to create a snapshot on a schedule (for example, in the middle of the night) so that all of the ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Enumerating Audio Source Lines in Vista ?

  hi, What Interface or API to use for enumerating Audio Source Lines (i.e Line IN, microphone, phone Line, CD Audio) In Vista Hello, I have a similar question and want to make sure I'm understanding you right. I'm trying to effect the output volumes for Line In and Mic.
