I'm trying to run Raven Db in embeddedmode on Winhost, but I get a securityexception with following stacktrace:

My application is running in full trust (internal) mode but judging from that exception I'm making a bold assumption that Raven will never run unless they loosen their security policies.
Am I wrong or is it possible to run Raven Db at Winhost?
Also if it's not possible, a list of shared web hosting providers that can run Raven Db would be much appreciated. :-)
RavenDB requires full trust to run in server / embedded mode.
You can try www.winhost.com as described here:
How can I run RavenDB in a shared hosting environment?
It has the so desired Full Trust Allowed which is something one should look for in the case of RavenDB to avoid the current security permissions problems...
NOTE: I just tried this host and can confirm that it works great with RavenDB in Full Trust... :-)
Yes, you can run RavenDB on Winhost. You will need to change the web.config file, set the correct Raven/WorkingDir and enable Full trust.
When running, you will get an error regarding WebSockets. You can open up a support ticket to have it enabled and have “Overlapped Recycle” disabled.
I (employee of Winhost) wrote an official startup guide here if you want to try out RavenDb on Winhost.

I'm about to post my answer to this, as well, but I couldn't find this when googling last night so figured it's worth listing here for anyone else pulling their hair out at 9pm.
I created a new Umbraco instance of a site that already exists elsewhere (I needed to make a snapshot for security testing whilst bugfixing continues). To do so, I did the following:
Stopped the destination webserver.
Copied over the entire webroot, including the umbraco folder, an empty App_Data and all the assets, macros, templates and so on. (To do this, I actually made a zipfile of the webroot and reinflated it onto the destination webserver, but a more standard xcopy deployment would have the same effect.)
Backed up the database (two of them, in my case, but only one is Umbraco's) and restored it to a new database on the destination dataserver
Restarted the destination webserver.
Normally, my next step would be to tell Umbraco to republish the site, to clear any caches but, on trying to visit http://mydomain.com/umbraco/, I get a yellow screen of death error reading:
Database persistence could not be found, please ensure you have a valid connection string and a Umbraco.Courier.Persistence.* dll in your /bin
and a stack trace of

Now I know that the Umbraco.Courier.Persistence.* DLLs are all present — not least because I just copied them from a working environment.
So what gives?
Having wasted a bunch of time on this a couple of times in the last week, it occurred to me to make an actual note of how to fix it when it next happened.
All it takes is recycling relevant the application pool. If you're not sure how to do that, then take a look at one of the following links:
Hosting.com: Recycle Application Pools in IIS6 & IIS7
TechNet at Recycle an Application Pool on Demand (IIS 7) — the IIS6 instructions on TechNet really suck
StackOverflow: PowerShell script to recycle an IIS6 app pool
StackOverflow: How to use adsutil to recycle an IIS6 app pool
I hope this saves someone else from the frustration I was feeling well after office hours the other night.
I have to concur that that solution doesn't always work; we're having the same "database persistence" error trying to deploy Courier (build 26) with the latest Umbraco 4.11.1 build, and clicking "Deploy" from the umbraco Courier dashboard brings the same error. Recycling the application pool for this site didn't help.
Posted as a help ticket to umbraco.org also, if I get resolution will post here.
I have an Outlook Add-In that's installed from a web server. This add-in works the same way as all other add-ins I've worked on in Office.
setup.exe is downloaded and executed
all prerequisites (.Net framework and such) are verified
vsto file is downloaded
So far, everybody installing this add-in has had no problems (this add-in has been in use for about a year). We have a new customer installing it on Windows 7 and we're seeing our first issue. Here's the error:
There was an error during installation:
Downloading http://<path and filename>.vsto did not succeed
***************** Exception Text******************
System.Deployment.Application.DeploymentDownloadException: Downloading http://<path and filename>.vsto did not succeed

Obviously, I cannot duplicate from my location. My gut is telling me this customer's network security is causing an issue (my understanding is that they have a series of firewalls and such), but their Windows XP machines are having no problem installing.
Anybody see anything I'm missing?
In the end, the answer wasn't too difficult. What was happening is that, obviously, the user is behind a Proxy Server that's blocking the download of the VSTO file, as it didn't have the Proxy Credentials.
So, I've had to make an exception for these users, sending them all the files in a zip that they can install from.
Note that users that run into this MUST run a command to clear the ClickOnce app cache before proceeding; it looks like the mere attempt to install this was leaving some residuals behind that was causing a problem. If you don't already know, you can clear the app cache by running this command from the command prompt (or creating a .bat file containing):
rundll32 dfshim CleanOnlineAppCache
There is a MS KB (KB917952) that corrects ClickOnce deployment issues when using Proxy Authentication.
End users or IT can modify the machine.config to enable proxy authentication with their NTLM login. This will allow them to install ClickOnce or VSTO applications behind proxies that require authentication.
How To: Change your Default Proxy to always use your default credential (NTLM login).
Edit %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\config\machine.config
Add the defaultProxy element shown below. Remember to add to an existing system.net section when one exists already.
<configuration>
..
<system.net>
<defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true"/>
</system.net>
...
</configuration>
Element (Network Settings)
useDefaultCredentials
Specifies whether the default credentials for this host are used to access the web proxy. The default value is false.
I am running on Windows 7/IIS 7.5, and have a web service set up to use net.msmq, but when I attempt to access the service using HTTP, I get the following error:
The protocol 'net.msmq' does not have an implementation of HostedTransportConfiguration type registered.
[InvalidOperationException: The protocol 'net.msmq' does not have an implementation of HostedTransportConfiguration type registered.]

System.Web.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +599
System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +171
I have set both http and net.msmq bindings on the site under which it resides, and have enabled both protocols ("http,net.msmq") on both the site and application.
I've looked at the article Debugging a Missing HostedTransportConfiguration Type and have run all the commands there, but none seemed to help; running sc query netmsmqactivator shows:
SERVICE_NAME: netmsmqactivator
TYPE : 20 WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS

WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
CHECKPOINT : 0x0
WAIT_HINT : 0x0
The App Pool that the application is running under right now is targeting .NET Framework v2.0, but if I change the app pool to target .NET Framework v4.0 (and make appropriate changes to the service's web.config to remove duplicate configSection definitions), I am able to see the WSDL just fine.
As far as I know, the web service is not meant to be run targeting .NET Framework v4.0; it is actually working for a colleague of mine (also running Windows 7), but comparing setups isn't viable at this time for numerous reasons.
Another note, may or may not be related:
After attempting to access the service via HTTP and getting the above error, refreshing the service results in:
An item with the same key has already been added.
[ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added.]

System.Web.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +599
System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +171
This requires an app pool recycle to clear.
I don't have experience working with net.msmq, so I do not know what pertinent information I may have left out; please let me know what I've missed.
Figured it out: Not sure what was messed up, but turns out that uninstalling then reinstalling WCF Non-HTTP Activation fixed it.
If you are hosting an MSMQ/WCF service in IIS, you have to tell IIS to allow net.msmq protocol. It's in the advanced settings for the application or site in which you are hosting the service.
I've got a class library doing all my NHibernate stuff. It also handles all the mapping using Fluent NHibernate - no mapping files to deploy.
This class library is consumed by a number of apps, including a Windows Service running on my computer. Although it works fine in all my web apps, the Windows Service gets this when it tries to use NHibernate:
An invalid or incomplete configuration was used while creating a SessionFactory. Check PotentialReasons collection, and InnerException for more detail.
at FluentNHibernate.Cfg.FluentConfiguration.BuildSessionFactory()
at Kctc.NHibernate.KctcSessionFactory.get_SessionFactory() in C:\Kctc\Trunk\Kctc.NHibernate\KctcSessionFactory.cs:line 28
...more stack trace...
I have checked for an InnerException and there doesn't appear to be one. I have no idea what the PotentialReasons collection is, and Google doesn't seem to be forthcoming either.
This is my dev machine, so when I'm working on my web apps they run locally (i.e. using the web server in Visual Studio). The fact that the Windows Service and my dev web apps are running on this same machine suggest it's not to do with trust settings or what have you.
Can anyone suggest what I should try? This is one of those ones where I'm so stumped I can't even think of how to get more information about the problem.
Just a wild guess. NHibernate picks up the hibernate.cfg.xml file from the execution directory. Did you configure the execution directory of the service that it can find this file?
I've found out what the problem is. The Service did not deploy with the required NHibernate.ByteCode.LinFu.dll.
I appear to have an ongoing problem with the Visual Studio compiler not always copying indirect dependencies (i.e. dlls required by class libraries required by the app) into the output folder during the build. I should have thought of this sooner really.
Thanks for racking your brains on my behalf guys.
I bet the name of the connection string is missing from the app.config. For me that message is almost exclusively a missing connection string.
Are you targeting the same database or could it be some sort of schema mismatch between databases?
Could it be authentication issues on the service like you use windows authentication where it can't be used (or the sql authentication that doesn't work)?
It's hard to tell when there is no code, just an exception!
EDIT Are you ever using HttpContext, HostingEnvironment or anything else specific to "web"?
I've been building a silverlight application and a WCF service for a while now and recently tried to host them in IIS7.
I installed IIS7 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and added these two application to my default website. I am having a number of problems so im hoping one of you can help out...
1) The silverlight and WCF service applications do not work with pass-through authentication. I need to "connect as" the administrator server account when setting up the application. I read online that you should only need to use the "connect as" field when you are connecting to another computer. If i dont supply the admin credentials i get this error. Do i have to set up permissions somewhere else?

2) Visual studio generated 2 webpages to run my silverlight application (.html and .aspx). When I am running the silverlight application (connected as admin) I can navigate to the .html page, no problem. When I try to open the .aspx file i get the following error

3) The WCF service runs fine (again, connected as admin) until i restart the server. When i try to run the WCF service after a reboot, the mysql assembly seems to be missing from the solution. If i just rebuilt the solution and run the service again... it works (until next restart). Whats causing this error?

Thats about it, hope someone reads this message, I wasted most of the weekend trying to fix these problems on my own... thanks
My suggestions:
1) Check your web application folder's permissions. You should edit the permissions on your web application folder so that the IIS user can read from the folder.
So you should open the folder properties dialog for the folder in the windows explorer and check if the application pool user has at least read permissions. If you didn't provide another user for the application pool, then the default user should be IIS_IUSRS.
2) Check if the asp.net is enabled in your system by running:
If you have .Net 4 installed in your system:
"%WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe" –i
Otherwise:
"%WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe" –i
The above command will register/repair the your .Net installation with the IIS.
3) Is your mysql dll locate in the bin folder? I would check if you also have permissions to read this folder. If the dll is not in the same folder as your application dll, check if the dll is installed in the GAC.
Regards,
1)Give permissions to the folder for the IIS_IUSRS group.
Also see if the application pool for the application in IIS manager->"Application Pools" has the Identity set as "LocalSystem". For me it was "NetworkService", setting it to "LocalSystem" solved it.
You must not be able to host silverlight applications with IIS7.
Try hosting your silverlight app on an apache server with a php / html script.
Hope that helps mate
