VB.Net to C# Convertor for asp.net 2.0

[Jeff]

I have a few web projects that were written by someone else in


I have a few web projects that were written by someone else in asp.net 2.0 with VB.Net and i would like to convert them to c#. These projects are prettty simple, but there is a lot of code; they are not even broken out into mulitple tiers, there are a couple classes thrown in the app_code folder. Anyone have any exprience with the convertor products out there? I know there are a few, but i would rather safe the efforts of research and testing, and only look at the ones that work well. Please send me some referalls. Thanks.

Hi Clark,

Could you assure that you set up the appropriate smtp server
informations in the right place inside your web.config file (i.e.
/configuration/system.net/mailSettings/smtp/network)?
A common error consists in leaving the original System.Web.Mail settings
inside the web.config file and forgetting to set up the ones needed by
the (not so) new System.Net.Mail.

Also check out [1] and [2], which have loads of information about both
the systems.

HTH,

Hi,

Usually, there are 2 main solutions to this problem.

1) You have a virus scanner that is stopping outgoing port 25 connections.
You need to configure your virus scanner to allow your exe (even if it is
the aspnet_wp.exe) to allow it to send email.

2) You have a firewall that is blocking your connection. Again, configure
it to allow outgoing port 25 connections.

Cheers!
Dave

Subject: [DOTNET-WEB] Using System.Net.Mail



I'm going out of my mind trying to get System.Net.Mail to work in an
app, but am having no joy. I was using System.Web.Mail, and the
following code works like a charm:

MailMessage mm = new MailMessage()
mm.To = "***@fake.com";
mm.From = "***@fake.com";
mm.Body = "Just testing this";
mm.Subject = "Testing 123";

SmtpMail.Send(mm);

VS2005 says it's obsolete, so I'm trying to use the "new and improved"
methods.

I look at the sample code in MSDN on using the Send method in
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient as found here:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/swas0fwc.aspx

And the code that I am attempting to execute is:

string to = "***@fake.com";
string from = "***@fake.com";
MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, to);
message.Subject = "Using the new SMTP client.";
message.Body = @"Using this new feature, you can send an e-mail message
from an application very easily.";
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(Server);
client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
client.Send(message);

When the Send is executed this exception is raised:
"An established connection was aborted by the software in your host
machine "

Looking further, the status code given is "GeneralFailure", the
exception message is "Failure sending mail." and the inner exception
message is "Unable to connect to the remote server".

The problem may or may not be centered around the server name. It's a
server on our intranet, and I have tried both its name and its IP
address, but no joy.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Typical, I find that the anti-virus software on the SMTP server is blocking port
25. If you SMTP server is different from when you use System.Web.Mail and
System.Net.Mail, then look at your virus scanner settings.
