I have developed a vb.net application using visual studio 2010 and MS SQL Server 2014. I have used crystal reports for reporting purpose.
target framwork 4.0
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
using crystal reports as
Build Action = Embedded Resource
Copy to output directory = Do not copy
in code crystal report is accessed as
Dim cryRpt As New myReportName
cryRpt.SetDataSource(xdataset.Tables(0))
problem is when I run myproject.exe located in myProject\bin\Debug, it works fine both for forms and crystal reports.
but if myproject.exe is copied to any other location, it crashes on run, where dataset is assigned to report.
Now if I copy myproject.exe.config file at same location as of exe file, it runs successfully.
so why exe file needs myproject.exe.config to run if it using dataset for records.
do I need to deploy myproject.exe.config with my exe file too?
regards.
this is code inside my config file

My.Settings uses the .exe.config file I think. Easiest is to open it and see what settings are stored inside. You can then change your code to store those settings elsewhere.

Recently I posted a couple of errors I was having, relating to app.config in a VB project. Andrew Morton kindly pointed me to an existing answer which resolved the first part of the issue, but I've since found that I still can't add/update variables in app.config via the Settings dialog in the project properties, nor can the Settings dialog read the app.config file.
The error message is:
an error occurred while reading the app.config file. the file might be corrupted
If I manually change the variable in app.config the program I'm coding still finds the old value as it's taking it from Settings.Designer.vb, and that's not getting updated when I change the variable in Settings as the platform isn't reading the app.config.
I've (again) run the app.config through an XML checker, all fine. I read one solution for this issue, which suggested the cause can be duplicate elements in the 'sectionGroup' area of app.config, but mine doesn't appear to have duplicate elements (app.config posted).
Steps I have tried are:
Removed and re-added the project from the solution.
Updated VS.
Repaired VS.
Deleted the app.config file and the variables from the Project Properties - System dialog, then added a new app.config and recreated the variables in the System dialog.

Rebuilding the project as a Windows Forms Application (.Net Framework 4.7.2) resolved it.
Originally chose 'plain' Windows Forms Application, which used 5.0
No idea why this is the case, but now works so all good.
I want to look at the log files for SQL Server Management Studio and I can't figure out where they are stored on the file system. Where are they?
Mine are at C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\SSMS:
How I found them
Looking in the app.config for my version of SSMS (located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\140\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio\Ssms.exe.config), I found a section that adds a logger:
<!-- Enhanced logging to help troubleshoot password loss issues -->
<system.diagnostics>
<sources>
<source name="UserSettings" switchName="SourceSwitch" switchType="System.Diagnostics.SourceSwitch" >
<listeners>
<add name="logFile" type="Microsoft.SqlServer.Diagnostics.STrace.LogFileTraceListener,
Microsoft.SqlServer.Diagnostics.STrace, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91"
logPath="%TEMP%\SSMS\" encrypt="false" >
</add>
</listeners>
</source>
</sources>
<!-- ... other config here ... -->
</system.diagnostics>
In my case, %TEMP% evaluates to C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp.
I have ImageResizer installed via NuGet which is working fine when I run the ASP.Net MVC website from Visual Studio. I can get to the /resizer.debug page and it says all is well.
When I come to publish the site from Visual Studio to the main IIS instance on the same machine, ImageResizer does not work and when I browse to /resizer.debug I get a 404 Not Found error.
I have published the web.config and verified all the image resizer components are in there. Eg:
<httpModules><add name="ImageResizingModule" type="ImageResizer.InterceptModule" /></httpModules></system.web>
The ImageResizer dlls are also in the /bin directory.
However, nothing is happening and the debug page will not display.
Is there something that needs to be done to configure ImageResizer on IIS7 when publishing the project?
It appears that you only configured it for IIS Classic, not IIS7 Integrated mode. There must be a <system.webServer> element with the module installed.
From the installation guide:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="resizer" type="ImageResizer.ResizerSection,ImageResizer" requirePermission="false" />
</configSections>
<resizer>
<!-- Unless you (a) use Integrated mode, or (b) map all requests to ASP.NET,
you'll need to add .ashx to your image URLs: image.jpg.ashx?width=200&height=20 -->

<plugins>
<add name="DiskCache" />

I am using MSBuild.exe to build our application. Along with App.Config, I have App.prod.config, app.qa.config, app.dev.config files.
On the command line, I enter following
C:\XXX\MyProject> C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe myBuildFile.build /p:Configuration=DEV
Above command, looks for app.config and app.dev.config files, Transform placeholders in App.dev.config & generate app.config file with entries from app.dev.config file.
After project is compiled, app.exe.config file is created. All this is working fine for me.
But for production, I am getting correctly transformed app.config file but the app.exe.config file is same as the default app.config file (without any transformation)
Following is the app.prod.config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<!-- For more information on using transformations

By default, web.config is transformed on publish only. If you want to transform app.config or an xml document, then the best option is to install a Visual Studio extension called SlowCheetah
When I try to publish an asp.net 5 website with multiple web apps in the 'src' folder. It works okay in klr but If I run it under IIS, I get this error:
Failed to resolve the following dependencies for target framework 'Asp.Net,Version=v5.0'
Here is a very basic simple project attached that you might want to run under IIS.
http://www.filedropper.com/iissampleapp
Update: updating my question as requested.
In the attached project, I just right click on "IISSampleApp" and click publish. Visual studio creates files on local file system, which I then try to run under IIS. After publish, both of the web apps reside under src folder as src\IISSampleApp and src\SubApp. The IISSampleApp is the main app that should run as website, and it just references a class DateClass from SubApp.
I have created this sample project to get the answer, my actual project have similar structure and I get the same error.
I have uploaded the Precompiled version of the project here: http://www.filedropper.com/precompilediissample
Below is my generated web.config

<add key="kre-clr" value="clr" />
<add key="kre-app-base" value="..\approot\src\IISSampleApp" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>
edit the web.config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="kpm-package-path" value="..\approot\packages" />
<add key="bootstrapper-version" value="1.0.0-beta3" />

<add key="kre-version" value="1.0.0-beta3" />
<add key="kre-clr" value="clr" />
<add key="kre-app-base" value="..\approot\src\YOURPROJECT" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>
and set the security policy for \approotand \wwwroot
update: updating the answer after question's update
That just can't work like this because the kpm bundle command packages website as website and not as class library and you have 2 Startup class which is no good. If you want to share code between 2 website create a class library.
