ELMAH in asp.net mvc2 - asp.net

Can any body give me code to impement ELMAH error handling for my asp.net mvc application..
I need to know step by step process to implemnt?
thanks

I have used elmah with asp.net mvc 2.0.You would need to download the source from here, add the dll to your project and then change your web config to get elmah working it is explained well here. Also have a look at a similiar post to get more information or if you run into problems.

Check out my blog series on logging in MVC. The first article covers getting Elmah set up and running for MVC and expands on what Hanselman does.
There is a link to downloadable code at the end of the article. Hope that helps.

ASP.NET Empty Web Applcation for F#

Does anyone know if there are web templates for F#? Specifically, the ASP.NET Empty Web Application. I am looking for VS2012.
Actually, this is not exactly what I need to create a F# Web Applcation - I don't want any C# at all. I went and added this line to the .fsproj file like this:
<ProjectTypeGuids>{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21}</ProjectTypeGuids>
But I get this when I try and load the project:
error : Specified method is not supported.
I guess FSharp can't be used for a web application? How lame is that?
Never mind - found it on the Online Templates under Visual F#.
Thanks

need help in using "routing data" in asp.net 4 (without MVC)

I am newbie to asp.net 4. Pardon me if this question is dumb.
I have a web application tat was running in server with asp.net 3.5 and we migrated the server that to asp.net 4.
Now I need to use the query string in url without question mark.
What I need is to transform the url from "www.website.com?user_name=test_usr" to "www.website.com/test_usr" and read the test_usr into a variable(querystring or routing data)
I do not want to change the architecture of my application to MVC pattern.
Could someone please guide me on, if this is possible?
Thanks in advance.
It is possible to use routing with webforms in .NET 4.
Scott Guthrie has a good overview on the subject located here: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2009/10/13/url-routing-with-asp-net-4-web-forms-vs-2010-and-net-4-0-series.aspx
There is a walkthrough on the MSDN site as well: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd329551(v=vs.100).aspx
Here are the steps as I understand them:
Create a RegisterRoutes() method in your global.asax. This should include calls to routes.MapPageRoute()
Call RegisterRoutes() from Application_Start()
Use Page.GetRouteUrl() from pages to form links from within ASP.NET page logic

ASP.NET MVC alongside Web Forms in the same web app?

Has anyone successfully deployed ASP.NET MVC alongside Web Forms in the same application in a production environment? Were there any conflicts or gotchas you faced while doing so?
Is it really as easy as shown here in practice? What about if you run a MVC using the Razor view engine alongside Web Forms?
Mvc is build on top of asp.net as is webforms, so yes it's easy.
Done it couple of times for conversion purposes
Maybe this url's could help you:
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/IntegratingASPNETMVC3IntoExistingUpgradedASPNET4WebFormsApplications.aspx
and
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/PlugInHybridsASPNETWebFormsAndASPMVCAndASPNETDynamicDataSideBySide.aspx
One gotcha is don't put your WebForms inside the Views folder. I haven't get figured how to make MVC leave those paths alone. None of the ignore routing instructions seems to work in this case and the WebForms throw 404s.
Other than that WebForms works perfectly fine alongside MVC since MVC2.
Has anyone successfully deployed ASP.NET MVC alongside Web Forms in
the same application in a production environment?
I never mixed ASP.NET MVC and classic WebForms in the same application. I make them run in separate applications and communicate between them with standard HTTP techniques (query string parameters, form posts, cookies, ...).
Is it really as easy as shown here in practice?
Yes, it is as easy as that.
Check out scott hanselmans AddMvc3ToWebForms nuget package. I am using it and its working pretty great. I am using it to gradually convert my web forms app to mvc
I've spent a lot of time over the past few months on this. Here are my observations.
The good/easy
- Getting Webforms to call into MVC controllers
- It was remarkably easy to stand up a new MVC3 project and drop Webforms pages into it.
- I was able to move my <pages><controls></controls></pages> section into the /pages directory in a new web.config there
The dirty/difficult
Regarding the GUID
Please note that the GUID has to be added at the front of the line for some reason... everytime I tried it failed. Until I stumbled on a post that insisted it be the before the others.
also I don't know what the difference is but I have a different GUID working... {E53F8FEA-EAE0-44A6-8774-FFD645390401}
getting the landing page to be Webforms caused ALL kinds of snags.
getting jQuery intellisense to play nicely with T4MVC
this is what I did to address that
#if (System.Diagnostics.Debugger.IsAttached)
{
<script src="../../Scripts/Mvc3/jquery-1.7-vsdoc.js" type="text/javascript"></script> #* intellisense! *#
#Html.RelativeJavascript(Links.Scripts.Mvc3.jquery_1_7_js)
#Html.RelativeJavascript(Links.Scripts.Mvc3.jquery_unobtrusive_ajax_js)
}
else
{
#Html.RelativeJavascript(Links.Scripts.Mvc3.jquery_1_7_min_js)
#Html.RelativeJavascript(Links.Scripts.Mvc3.jquery_unobtrusive_ajax_min_js)
}
Recommendations:
Use T4MVC in ALL cases even if you are pure webforms. The elimination of magic strings for static content (.js,.css, images, specifying templates) is outstanding.
and if you have any part of your build process compiling views then you get compile-time safety on any of those links.

Detecting Changes in an ASP.NET Web Site

The ASP.NET framework does a very good job of detecting when a file has changed and recompiling that file etc. I would like to be able to hook into that update process. Is this at all possible?
I might want to do this as part of an initiative to try and version web sites developed as Web Site projects, versus Web Applications, where the version is easily found in statically deployed assemblies. If I my be misdirecting my energies as there are already better way if versioning web sites, I'd still appreciate some pointers.
I don't know if you can hook into that logic at all - perhaps you could add your code to Application_OnStart as this method will fire when ASP.NET recycles the AppPool and restarts the website.
Have you tried Web Deployment projects?
Scott Gu has a blog post.
You can use ASP.NET SignalR to do it, It's real-time web for .NET
Have you tried developing a separate module for ASP.NET that keeps track of last change?
This might put you on the right path (might -- I haven't tried this).

I am kinda new to .NET applications, I have a web forms application that I am working on and I am about to start the development of new pages, I am trying to make the new pages with the ASP.NET MVC, but I am not beeing able to make the pages hit the controllers. First i added the library references added the routes on the global.asax but not sure what else is missing, can someone help me out?
thx.
Reading between the lines I gather you are trying to add MVC pages to your existing ASP.NET Webforms Webapplication?
If that is the case then you probably need some MVC specific config. settings. Easiest way is to create a new MVC web app and then merge the config settings.
Furthermore if you are doing a hybrid project I'd recommend giving Scott Hanselmann's post on the topic a read.
There's a more step-by-step description of adding MVC to a WebForms Application at these links:
Integrating ASP.Net MVC Into An Existing ASP.Net Web Application
Mixing ASP.NET Webforms and ASP.NET MVC
You might also want to add the ProjectTypeGuid to the project file with a text editor ({603c0e0b-db56-11dc-be95-000d561079b0} is used to designate to Visual Studio to use the MVC extensions.)
<ProjectTypeGuids>{603c0e0b-db56-11dc-be95-000d561079b0};{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}</ProjectTypeGuids>
The links above also don't fully cover the system.webserver area of web.config that needs to be configured.
Scott Hanselman released a "totally unsupported" Nuget package that adds MVC 3 features to an existing Web Forms project. It also works on my PC (ha ha) and I've used it on several projects.
http://nuget.org/List/Packages/AddMvc3ToWebForms
He blogged about it here:
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/CreatingANuGetPackageIn7EasyStepsPlusUsingNuGetToIntegrateASPNETMVC3IntoExistingWebFormsApplications.aspx
One newb tip: this package will configure your MVC routes in /App_Start/RegisterMvc3Routes.cs
