• Debug a website
• Debug a web service
• Debug another .NET app

So you go into Visual Studio, Debug menu, Attach to process…

SO you are looking for the w3p.exe process, but there are loads!

Here is how to match up which process related to your application pool or IIS site.

Server 2003
Open a command prompt (run as administrator)
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv>cscript.exe C:\Windows\System32\system32\iisapp.vbs

Server 2008
Open a command prompt (run as administrator)
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list wp

If you get an error WAS service not started – make sure you opened command prompt as an administrator!

Hope this helps someone else quickly attach to the right process.

Alternatively attach to them all if you are lazy

As a responsible hosting provider, we have recognised the need to develop carbon efficient hosting solutions to reduce our environmental impact.

Data centres, which are necessary for housing servers and providing hosting services, use a large amount of energy and emit tonnes of CO2 every year.

In fact, data centres worldwide are expected to generate 533 million tonnes of CO2 by 2020 (Carbon Trust).

Becoming carbon neutral we are now a carbon neutral business, working with one of the world leaders in carbon management to offset carbon emissions.
In addition, we have achieved PAS 2060 certification – making us the 1st certified carbon neutral hosting company in the UK:

• 100% carbon neutral office and data centres
• 100% carbon neutral for all current client hosting solutions (free of charge)
• 100% carbon neutral for all new client hosting solutions (free of charge)

How to easily use canonical links in MVC2 using Action Filters and Master Pages

Add this to the master page in the head section as follows:

    <%=ViewData["CanonicalURL"] %>
    <!--Your other head info here-->

Create a Filter Attribute (CanonicalURL.cs):

public class CanonicalURL : ActionFilterAttribute
{
    public string Url { get; private set; }
 
    public CanonicalURL(string url)
    {
       Url = url;
    }
 
    public override void OnResultExecuting(ResultExecutingContext filterContext)
    {
        string fullyQualifiedUrl = "http://www.example.com" + this.Url;
        filterContext.Controller.ViewData["CanonicalUrl"] = @"<link rel='canonical' href='" + fullyQualifiedUrl + "' />";
        base.OnResultExecuting(filterContext);
    }
}

Call this from your actions:

[CanonicalURL("Contact-Us")]
public ActionResult Index()
 {
      ContactFormViewModel contact = new ContactFormViewModel(); 
      return View(contact);
}

Didsbury Design is the new name for Zero7Web. We will be offering the same high quality services as before, with extra services being added.

Website Hosting Upgrade

We have invested in a new, faster, even more reliable web hosting provider which means our clients websites will load even quicker than before! We can pass on our providers 100% network uptime guarantee and we are also proud to announce our web hosting is the first in the UK to be carbon neutral.

The hosting upgrade will not affect prices for current clients, although we will start to bill for domain names separately from now on which still keeps our prices very competitive.

Windows .NET 4 / MVC2 Support

We can now support additional languages for web development including Microsoft SQL, Classic ASP and the .NET framework including version 4.0.

We hope you like the new website and we very much look forward to working with you in the future.

The site is now looking great and is online.

I hope this helps someone get started with cookies if your just getting started with the .NET framework.

Creating a cookie

This is a basic example of how to create a cookie in ASP.NET C#

//Create a new cookie, passing the name into the constructor
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("MyCookie");

//Set the cookies value
cookie.Value = "CookieValue";

//Set the cookie to expire in 1 day
cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);

//Add the cookie
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);

Deleting a cookie

When deleting a cookie all you need to do is amend the HttpCookie object so it has an expiry date in the past, then re-save the cookie to push the new value to the client.

// Clear cookie Info
            if(Request.Cookies["MyCookie"]!=null){

                HttpCookie cookie = Request.Cookies["MyCookie"];
                cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1);

                Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
            }

We will now be keeping a close eye on the sites traffic and we will be working closely with Deborah to help her achieve the online success she deserves.
