    ASP.NET throwing GDIPlus.dll exception

    Hi X10,

    The following script was posted on another site. I've been following a ASP.NET tutorial from this site for the past few days. Unfortunately, the script isn't compiling here at X10. Actually, the script wouldn't compile at another host either with the same exception being thrown. I was hoping a little light could be shed on why it won't compile. * I should also mention that if the RangeValidator control is removed, the script compiles fine*. It seems to be a pretty fundamental and understandable piece of VB. Now, a third site, a simillar issue made it to their forum. The admin pointed out that that particular host does not support the GDIPlus.dll. Could that be the case here at X 10? If so, I can work around it. I just wanted to make sure that I'm not doing something fundamentally wrong that may affect my future scripts.

    Any help or response will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks again.

    ************************************** Script*************************

    <html>
    <body>

    <form runat="server">
    <p>Enter a number from 1 to 100:
    <asp:TextBox id="tbox1" runat="server" />
    <br /><br />
    <asp:Button Text="Submit" runat="server" />
    </p>

    <p>
    <asp:RangeValidator
    ControlToValidate="tbox1"
    MinimumValue="1"
    MaximumValue="100"
    Type="Integer"
    Text="The value must be from 1 to 100!"
    runat="server" />
    </p>
    </form>

    </body>
    </html>

    ************************************Exception thrown************************

    System.DllNotFoundException: gdiplus.dll
    at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.Drawing.GDIPlus:GdiplusStartup (ulong&,System.Drawing.GdiplusStartupInput&,System .Drawing.GdiplusStartupOutput&)
    at System.Drawing.GDIPlus..cctor () [0x00000]
    Edit:
    please disregard this thread/post. I just found out that x10 aspnet has mono (thanks hue). Sorry for the confusion . I don't know how to delete my thread/post, otherwise i would.

    Hee-hee. Hue's been kissing X10 ASP.Net, with drastic consequences.

    Just in case you haven't read it, check out the "How to get ASP.Net to work at x10Hosting" tutorial. If you haven't tried it already, read Hue's suggestion from another thread to try to install GDIPlus.dll with your web app. For the sake of completeness, here's all the GDIPlus.dll threads.
    Be sure to read all pages linked in this post; they have further information that should prove useful. When asking for help, make sure you follow Eric Raymond's and Jon Skeet's guidelines for prompt, accurate responses. Please answer any questions I ask; they're not rhetorical (probably). Any posted code is intended as illustrative example, rather than a solution to your problem to be copied without alteration. Study it to learn how to write your own solution.
    Misson, not Mission.

    Re: ASP.NET throwing GDIPlus.dll exception

    Misson,

    Thanks for the help. I'll consult Hue's ASP.NET/MONO tutorial. You're absolutely right. I should solve my own solutions.

    I still can't close the thread however. I would close this thread; however KKenny inidicated, in a previous post, that I can find "Close Thread" under "Thread Tools". Unfortunately, it's not showing up in the drop-down.

    Any Ideas?

    Pete
