XSL transform

[Doug Stiers]

I have this vb.net (framework 1.1) code:

Dim x As Xml.Xsl.XslTran sform = New Xml.Xsl.XslTran sform
Dim xr As XmlResolver

MessageBox.Show ("before load")
x.Load(<xsl file name>) -- THIS IS WHERE IT ERRORS --
MessageBox.Show ("after load")
'do the transform
x.Transform(gsX pensePath, < XML file_name>, xr)

And I'm getting an "invalied site" error. Any idea why? When I run this from
the development box it works fine, but from the machine that it is supposed
to run on I get the error. It used to work fine but all of a sudden it
starts bombing this morning.
Any help is appreciated.
Doug

I still doubt that this is the complete exception text shown in the

Maybe this helps:

The entire error is "Invalid site"

The file names are using unc's

x.Load("\\serv1 \c$\xpense\xpen se.xsl") -- THIS IS WHERE IT ERRORS --
'MessageBox.Sho w("after load")
'do the transform
x.Transform(gsX pensePath, "\\serv1\c$\xpe nse\output.xml" ,xr)

Doug,
Is this running on \\serv1 or a different computer?

Does the account the program running under have the necessary authority to
access the \\serv1\c$ share?

Remember \\serv1\c$ is a special share that is used for administrative
purposes, normally not for accessing files.

Did you per haps mean:

x.Load("\\serv1 \xpense\xpense. xsl") -- THIS IS WHERE IT ERRORS --
Hope this helps

It has been running for a couple of years without any problems until today.

Here is the error info and call stack:
Ivalid site.
at System.Security .Util.SiteStrin g.CreateSeperat edSite(String site)

at Concur.Expense. NikuXpenseTrans form()

If I log onto that machine and paste those unc's into the Start|Run I dont
get any errors. I can get to those files fine. It errors when I'm logged in
as myself or as the machine admin which is how it runs normally.

Doug,

It has been running for a couple of years without any problems until
today.
It is extremely rare for things to spontaneously stop working, there is
almost always an outside cause. What was that outside cause?
So what changed today?

What service packs were installed (OS, .NET, other)?
What configuration changes did your system admins do?
What changes were made to the program?
As far as I can tell "Site" in this case is referring to the machine name
(serv1).

Not sure what else to offer.

Hope this helps
Jay
