My client need an enterprise web portal app where a set of applications will be shown in the portlets and he can work on those portlets or navigate to the particular web application by clicking the relevant portlet. I would like to know about the available software that I can use to develop the Portal in .Net since the client is a .Net company.
I know SharePoint and Microsoft Dynamics is there by I need to know other alternatives available in .net language stack .
You can install AX addons to Visual Studio that will allow you to access AOT objects in a .net application. You can find an example in my response here:
How to use microsoft's Dynamics AX classes?

I'm using SharePoint 2010, Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate Edition with SP1. In my Console Project, I targeted .net framework 4.0, same with all the other 10 projects in the solution.
I did this to make the NSAPConnector work. NSAPConnector is the .net connector we used in consuming SAP BAPI functions.
Is there a work around for this setup to work? Or I would have to retarget all projects to .net framework 3.5? If I do that then the NSAPConnector will not work any more.
The requirements for SharePoint 2010 ( https://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc262485(v=office.14).aspx ) list Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.5 SP1 as a hard requirement. SharePoint 2010 isn't supported (and as you can see) doesn't work any other version of .Net.
You aren't clear on what integrations you are doing with SharePoint. If you doing have to tie in directly to server side SharePoint hooks, you can remotely integrate with SharePoint via SOAP APIs, SharePoint's Client Side Object Model and its REST APIs. This would free you up to use a client .Net Framework that is compatible with your SAP library.
If you need to tie into SharePoint server side, then you will need to host your SAP connecting code out of process (say for example as a Windows service or behind a web service interface and have your SharePoint Server code interact with your service/web service end point.
I am trying to create STS MVC web application in VS2012 and VS2013, but STS web template is not available in template gallery. Is there a way that I can download STS web app template in VS2012 and Vs2013 ?
One more query, We have Identity and Access tool in VS2012 but there is nothing like this in VS2013.
How I can install Identity and Access tool in VS2013 ?
Please help me.
If you read the Q and A for the Identity and Access Tool extension for VS 2012, you will see a post from a member of the team who indicates that it will not be ported to VS 2013. They have added support for claims based authentication directly into the ASP.NET project creation template.
In the post, they admit that they are not 100% equivalent, so they use VS2012 and VS2013 side by side until they achieve parity.

How to Create Web Application Set up in asp.net ?
I have a web site in a Visual studio.I want to create a single web setup project which should install the web site.So how to create a single web setup project which supports multiple web application installation?
You can use Installshield to do that. When you go to add new project you will see that option under Other Project Types --> Setup and Deployment
http://learn.flexerasoftware.com/content/IS-EVAL-InstallShield-Limited-Edition-Visual-Studio?lang=1033&ver=prem
There are many 3rd party tools that can perform this for you (We use Anthill Pro to deploy between our various environments).
I've used the full version of InstallShield in the past but there was a bit of a learning curve to get it right.
The free alternative is to use the Web Setup Project template in Visual Studio (This uses the 'lite' version of InstallShield I believe). You can also check out this link, which describes many different options for you to deploy your website. Extract from the last link:
Visual Studio, ASP.NET, and IIS provide tools that can help you with
the process of deploying your web application or web site. Some of the
Visual Studio tools work only with web application projects, while
others work only with web site projects. (All MVC projects are web
application projects.)
Hopefully this walkthrough should provide you a good starting point should you choose to go down the Visual Studio route.
Is it possible to develop an ASP.NET Web Service using the Visual Web Developer 2010? Or I must use Visual Studio itself for creating the Web Service?
Thanks,
LS Developer
Yes. But for future understanding, please consider these notes:
Creating Web Service actually doesn't need any IDE. You can create a web service (or an entire web site) using Notepad. Therefore, Visual Studio is just a helpful tool for you.
Creating a web service based on .NET Framework actually needs you to compile your code. Therefore, you can again create the web service with notepad, and compile it using C# or VB.NET compiler, deploy it and use it.
Visual Web Developer 2010 (Express) is just an IDE. Web Service on the other hand is an Item Template (which writes the basic infrastructure for you). But even if you don't use that Item Template, you can create a class, inherit from WebService and create your web service.
Good luck.

I am looking for ASP.NET applications that I can deploy to my local server. Can anyone suggest a link for open source .NET applications or any book?
Any suggestion would be helpful.
Thanks
If you are using Visual Studio 08 or 10 then they have built in ASP.NET Application Templates which will get you started.
These include a basic website with a Home and About page, also a Login/Register page and all the code to handle the Login and Registration.
If you create one of these, then you can deploy it to a local server as long as you have the .net framework, IIS and various other bits installed.
EDITS
Go and download the Web Platform Installer. From here you can download various templates and up-to-date tools. I would upgrade from VS 05 to a newer version, maybe Visual Web Developer Express 2010 as this will give you more options.
