I am writing an ASP.Net application which uses the Lync client API to get user availability state from Lync.
Now I get a strange error when calling the Lync api methods:
"The file or assembly 'Microsoft.Lync.Model [...] not found".
But I have referenced the Lync client api in the correct version.
What do I have to change to make this working?
The Lync client api may not be an ideal fit for an ASP .Net application but that depends which of the 2 you are using.
There is one for desktop applications and one for Silverlight applications, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj933180.aspx for more details.
Regardless of which version you are using you will need the Lync client installed on that machine. To be explicit if you are using the api on the server as I suspect then the server will need the Lync Client installed there.
It's also worth noting that there is a web api for lync https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn962133(v=office.16).aspx
You can find here exact instruction
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/hh378548%28v=office.14%29.aspx
Microsoft.Lync.Model.dll is not added to the global assembly cache on your computer during Microsoft Lync SDK installation. Instead, you must navigate to the install location of these files and select them for inclusion in your project references.
nothing more then this, if you sill have a problem maybe it's a good thing to create new application project in Visual Studio.
Hope it help.

I am following the tutorial
.As explained in the tutorial, I have installed UCMA 3.0 SDK
Next is, I ran Run Bootstrapper.exe /BootstrapLocalMgmt /MinCache successfully.
In the third step, I am trying to run the command Run Get-CsSite to get the SiteId, but I am getting an error as:
"Cannot find information about the local domain".
I am not sure about this error. Can somebody help me out with this. I am doing this on an azure machine.
Assuming that your machine is correctly joined to the domain, and meets the other pre-requisites:
You may be missing the configuration store, or the Lync components installation didn't succeed or didn't perform all needed setup properly.
I'd suggest to run the Lync 2010 setup (UI) on that machine, in order to have it joining the Lync farm properly (I use to do in this way), and get the configuration store as well.
My suggestion is to perform Step 3 and 4 from the following article:

Every time I try to add the Interactive Brokers API control on my computer it gives me an error that sais....

I have been looking for an answer and trying different things for a week now and I can not seem to figure it out. I tried it on my laptop and it worked. I thought it was my windows or my visual studio so i re-installed everything on my PC. I'm not running a Windows 7 Professional x64 with Visual Studio 2013 with the newest update. At this point I have no idea what to try to make it work. Does anybody know what is this error.
Sorry-very late for an answer to this but in case someone else comes across it. There are a number of reasons why Visual Studio might not be able to add the control to your application. For 64-bit windows, one of the main issues is that the ActiveX control (tws.ocx) is not registered properly when the API is installed. I have a web page dedicated to installing IB API on Windows and I list out many of the issues that can happen when working with the ActiveX control on 64-bit windows: http://holowczak.com/ib-install/
I just posted a very simple tutorial on my website that starts at the very beginning and walks you through getting the API to work with interactive brokers using Visual Studio and C# : Get Real-Time Stock data from Interactive Brokers API
If that doesn't help I would consider:
Turn off Windows Firewall and give it a try.
Ensure you have Traders Workstation setup to allow incomming connections for ActiveX/.NET.
Ensure Traders Workstation works on your machine. Try downloading it from IB and launching it. If it works, then the problem is on the .NET or connection from .NET to TWS which is Java.
Also when you say "Interactive Brokers Control" do you mean the API package that you can download? If so to build it into your program all you need is the .DLL file as shown in the tutorial link I posted above.
How do i check whether IBM MQ client is installed in the client computer via vb.net winform application?
I have added amqmdnet.dll to my project and imported IBM.WMQ namespace.
However i don't know how to check IBM MQ client installed in the target computer? (like for example, if you want to check a windows service, you can loop through all the available services, then check for that particular windows service)
Any inputs will be highly helpful?
The dspmqver command will let you know what is installed.
From the Microsoft KB:
CAUTION: Do not use these APIs in your application to perform assembly
binds or to test for the presence of assemblies or other run time,
development, or design-time operations. Only administrative tools and
setup programs must use these APIs. If you use the GAC, this directly
exposes your application to assembly binding fragility or may cause
your application to work improperly on future versions of the .NET
Framework.
There is no native MQ API to check the GAC. (Shashi, please correct me if I've overlooked something here. I know you are watching. :-) )
I've written a WCF service which tries to read the list items from a particular list in SharePoint. For testing purposes I run the WCF service using Visual Studio ASP.Net Development server. I pass the Site ID to the web service and from the web service I try to open the List and read the items. But when I try to read the items I'm getting the following error -
This operation can be performed only
on a computer that is joined to a
server farm by users who have
permissions in SQL Server to read from
the configuration database. To connect
this server to the server farm, use
the SharePoint Products and
Technologies Configuration Wizard,
located on the Start menu in
Administrative Tools.
Here are some facts -
I'm using SharePoint 2007 x64 in
Windows Server 2008 x64 and it is a
single server installation (no farm)
I'm a Farm administrator
I'm a System Administrator (but not
domain administrator)
I'm a SysAdmin for the SQL Server
2005 server in which is SharePoint
is having its databases
I'm the Site Collection
Administrator in which the List is
present
I opened Visual Studio 2010 as
adminsitrator
In task manager, the ASP.Net
development server process is
running under my account
I don't have any idea why I'm getting that error. Any ideas?
is the WCF service runnig on the sharepoint computer ? I bet you are trying to use the SharePoint object model outsite the sharepoint box.
If you want to access remotely to the sharepoint data, in a WCF service on your own, or actually any other program, you will have to use the Lists.asmx web service to retrieve your data from sharepoint.
In fact, in your WCF you will have to act as a client to the SP services
[edit] my bet was wrong :) here is another thing to check
Also take a look in your VS project. Setup your target platform to "AnyCpu" or "X64" to ensure the program will use the correct assemblies and registry keys.
The object model will try to open the reg key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node node if you process is 32 bits, instead of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE where the sharepoint config resides
Try to check your sharepoint application pool identity. If you, for example, trying to evelate you priviligies using RunWithEvelatedPrivilegies in your service, and app pool identity doesn't have required permissions, you will get such message.
Okie. I found the issue. It is related to the same problem which I've been facing since I switched to x64 development in SharePoint 2007. When I deployed the WCF service to IIS everything worked fine.
Using Visual Studio 2010 (no matter what my target platform of my project is) I've never been able to access SharePoint content through a simple console application or a simple asp.net web application. I've clearly understood that the problem is with the x86 x64 stuffs and I've not been able to resolve it till now. I've been haunted by this for so long now.
If you have any comments on this answer please post it.
Old Ref - Filenotfound exception while opening an SPSite object - x64
Question: I created an ASP.NET web application.
Now it originally was meant for deployment on a webserver.
That is working, so, so far so good.
My question now is: Is it possible to deploy it as a desktop-application, too?
That is to say the installer installs some kind of server, plus the web application, configures the server to run this application on a localhost URL, and then creates a link in the start menu/desktop, where it opens that url (website, the application) on localhost in a web browser?
I think it should be possible, though the server wouldn't be IIS, because this is a windows component which can't be separately installed.
Is there anything like this already out there ?
The nonplusultra would be that it only starts the server when you click on the shortcut.
I'm not sure, but you could use IIS express, when it will be released. Take a look to ScottGu's post Introducing IIS Express.
I almost went for Cassini.
But in the meantime, I found something better:
http://code.google.com/p/aspnetserve/
My mistake was searching for 'asp.net deployment server component' instead of 'asp.net embedded webserver'.
A really cool project.
Seems to work, at least for my needs.
Edit:
A much better choice is xsp4 from package xsp-2.10.2, courtesy of the mono-project.
http://download.mono-project.com/sources/xsp/
Works on both Linux and Windows, as well as Mac, with both mono and .NET framework, and that without GAC installation (in fact, without any installation).
The latest source is here:
https://github.com/mono/xsp/tree/master/src
You can use an easily installable ASP.Net webserver such as UltiDev Cassini.
I think what you are looking for is something like Adobe Air: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Integrated_Runtime
However you want to be able to run ASP.NET, which Adobe Air does not. My suggestion is to use Silverlight
