Charts

Hi Developers and Code Gurus

I am using vs 2010 with .net4. I have charts that run perfect on the development server, but when posted to the host server there is an error regarding the temp directory used by the chart control. I have tried all of the following web configs - all failed
<!--<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir=/Temp/TempImageFiles/;" /> working on this machine to--> Failed

<!--<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir=c:\TempImageFiles\;" /> old one that works on this machine--> Failed

<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir=e:\web\bluegoldenc\htdocs\tempimagefiles;" /> failed

<!--<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir=./Temp/TempImageFiles/;" /> working on this machine to--> Failed


I have read this article "http://blog.discountasp.net/microsoft-releases-asp-net-charting-controls/" This blog has a link to a chart that is supposedly running on your server. Could someone look at where his temp file is pointed?

I am three days late on my client demo and hoping to find someone who can provide an answer.

Thanks

Use this:
<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir~/tempImages/;" />

or

<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;timeout=20;dir~/TempImageFiles/;" />

If you want it in tempimagefiles or whatever.

 

Problem Solved

Hi,

Thanks for the support to-date. Ray in technical support gave me the missing puzzle piece. In order to run charts and point to a directory you must have full trust set.
<system.web>
<trust level="Full" /> ....

</system.web>
