Re: getElementById failing
Havent' done ASP.Net for a while but could you try do it later than you are -
pre_render or something.

Re: getElementById failing (sort of solved)
I think its' all to do with the INamingContainer that it belongs to inferring a
name for it. Someone else suggested predictablenames which sounds like what you
want.

log4Net on Windows server 2008
Hey guys, Has anyone had any issues with getting log4net working in an ASP.Net project running on Windows Server 2008 (IIS 7). My configuration works on both my Windows 7 development machine and another windows server 2003 web server. I have cut the config down but still nothing works. This is a pretty broad question but I am kind of out of ideas. Cheers, Dave

I thought as much originally so I culled the config back to just send an email from a test page. Manually created and sent an email from the function which worked fine.

One thing you might want to check is that the App pool user has permission to write the log file. If your site is www.somesite.com, by default the application pool runs under a user called "IIS AppPool\www.somesite.com". The trick is that this user does NOT show up in the standard file\folder security dialog. You need to type it an as above, then click Check Names and it should be recognised. Failing this you could try Process Monitor to see if there are any failed writes to the log file due to security.

RE: log4Net on Windows server 2008
Ok ended up being a bunch of issues, the main one being that for some
reason the configuration call was not being picked up in my global.asax
file.
protected void Application_Start( object
sender, EventArgs e )
{
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();
I read somewhere that if you change the 'Managed Pipeline Mode' of the
application pool from Integrated to Classic (IIS 6) that this would fix
things however it didn't seem to help in my case. So now pulled the
configuration call out into a http module to ensure its all setup.
Once I got that going I just used the log4net internal log and a trace
listener to work out what else was wrong with things.
So yeah, thanks everyone for your help. A pretty silly fix in the end.

Hi David,
What sort of issues are you having? Windows 2008 is probably:
a) Packed full of more fine grained security controls AND
b) Even more secure by default
Failing that here are a few questions that you've probably already gone
through yourself:
* Are the framework versions the same?
* Are the App Pools configured the same?
* Can you get a simple one page app with log4net working? i.e. Is it
log4net or the config
* Can you get log4net working in a console app on that machine? i.e. Is
it IIS/ASP.NET

[OT] Usefulness of Microsoft Certifications
Hi everyone, the developers at our work are just looking at doing our MCPD for .net 4 and were wondering if anyone has any input or insight on the usefulness of these certifications? I currently have a MCAD (.net 1.1 - assuming its still valid) and I honestly don't know if it helped me beyond ticking some recruiters boxes. Have they changed much? Are there any other industry certifications, perhaps independent ones, which are held in higher regard? Also has anyone done the exam on Silverlight development? Is that any good? Thanks heaps in advance, Dave Walker
RE: [OT] Usefulness of Microsoft Certifications
Yeah fair enough. We all have CS degrees now - is it worth extending these to a Software Engineering degree/masters degree? Does any education provider offer something like this? My CS course spent alot of time dealing with topics which honestly I have never used, and will never use - PRNG's, assembly etc...

Maybe some people are more inclined to hire you on the basis of sitting a multiguess exam for an hour - I don't know. All these certifications prove to me is that someone is adept at content recall and a particular flavour of the month way of doing things. They are easily obtained by people who wouldn't know what a principle of computer science was if it ran over them with a race condition. > I currently have a MCAD (.net 1.1 - assuming its still valid) and I > honestly don't know if it helped me beyond ticking some recruiters boxes. > Have they changed much?

I agree - several of our best programmers have never been to University at all.

People with vastly different backgrounds tend to think about problems differently. I remember reading Boeing does the same when they develop their flight-systems, which are not only are quadruple-backed up, but are written by totally different teams with different backgrounds, as to help minimize a bug being in the same place. There is also one programmer at work without a tertiary degree but is passionate about it and is one of the best guys here. That said, I still believe getting a CS degree (at the very least) is worthwhile.

[OT] Remote worker
Hi all, I have recently decided to take the plunge and move overseas away from this great country and off to sunny Scotland. As part of my transition I will be working for my company remotely for the short term (at least three months). I am primarily a web developer however we deal with some rather large code bases and databases. Our current company policy is to use Citrix to RDP/VNC to our local machine however I have struggled with this for any extended period of time. Previously I have used Cisco VPN to join my companies network from my home machine and then just worked as normal... however this doesnt seem to be supported on Windows 7 64 bit and I really can't see myself going back to < 4 gigs of ram! I have done some reading online and have some reccomended strategies to use Open VPN and to have a Quarentine before it is allowed to join the network completly? I may have my terms wrong here; Networking is not one of my strong points... Does anyone have any tips - especially on software - that can help make development life bearable? Cheers in advance, Dave
