I have a web page from which i am creating activeX object and calling some methods in it.I have created msi file to register actveX dll. It works fine on my local machine but when i try it on other machines,it does not work. I have also installed the msi file on other machines and enabled "Initialize and script ActiveX Controls not marked as safe for scripting" in IE but still it does not work on other machines.
What is going wrong?
Thanks
Check after you run the .msi that your ActiveX.dll is registered properly. You should see it in IE 10 under I believe "Tools" (gear icon) - "Manage Add-ons". It should be listed there, make sure you set the Show dropdown list to "All add-ons". If you don't see your ActiveX listed there, something went wrong with registering the ActiveX.
You'll want to troubleshoot your .msi at that point, run it with verbose logging turned on.
msiexec /i MyActiveXInstaller.msi /l*vx "C:\Somepath\ErrorLog.log"

The Chrome dev team apparently just rolled out a new "feature" called SuppressDifferentOriginSubframeJSDialogs, which makes it so alert+confirm boxes from an iFrame on a different domain than the parent does not show up, by default: https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5148698084376576
This means if you have an embedded form, and you relied upon the standard JavaScript alert to inform the user of errors (or a confirm to ensure they want to make a change), it now does nothing, completely destroying the UX.
Obviously we can overwrite the built-in alert and confirms with custom ones, but moving away from what is built into the browser now introduces re-designs for every UI (mobile, tablet, laptop, desktop, etc.) instead of just relying upon proven, built-in technology.
Is there a way to change this cross-domain setting, or to whitelist specific domains to override this feature? We do have access to the parent site with an external JS include file (obviously, otherwise this would be a wide-open back door).
To Disable SuppressDifferentOriginSubframeJSDialogs , which block js Dialog box pop up
If you are single users ( Windows ) :
Right click on desktop and create a shortcut
Windows will pop up a screen and ask you "type the location of the item:"....now paste those value into the textbox
"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-features=SuppressDifferentOriginSubframeJSDialogs
Click "next" then "finish" button to create the shortcut
Now you shall see a chrome shortcut created in your desktop .Close all active Chrome instance ( if exists ) then launch the shortcut and you will found Js pop up wont block anymore.
Tips :
If you want push this fix to all your cooperate domain users , you may consider use Domain group policy to update Chrome shortcut value or use custom domain logon script logic to do so
I found a setting in the latest Chrome GPO template that creates a reg entry that will deal with this and the same reg entry placed in the Edge location also resolves the error there. (at least it worked for the problem that came up for us yesterday FWIW)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge]
"SuppressDifferentOriginSubframeDialogs"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome]
"SuppressDifferentOriginSubframeDialogs"=dword:00000000
The latest Edge GPO templates do not have the setting yet, but I imagine it's only a matter of time.
Today I tried it again with Google Chrome Version 92.0.4515.131 and it suddenly worked again. Can anyone confirm this?
Add for Mac users.
If you use mac OS:
Quit all running instances of Chrome.
Run the terminal application.
In the terminal, run the command:
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --disable-features="SuppressDifferentOriginSubframeJSDialogs"

I am working on a small web api project in Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate. Windows 2013. Internet Explorer 9. When I run (debug) from VS using the internal web server (I guess that is IIS Express, now), I am finding that the changes I am making (and saving) to a javascript page are being ignored. Placing a breakpoint in the javascript shows the older code without my changes.
CTRL+F5 does not force the application to use the currently updated page. Checking the page in, then checking it back out often works. Is there some setting or trick that will help me out here?
Clearing the cache history seemed a bit excessive and I don't want to do that all the time.
The following solution worked me in Internet Explorer:
First enable script debugging:
Tools menu -> select Internet Options
On advance tab uncheck "Disable script debugging (Internet Explorer)"
Then make sure you get the newest page:
From the Tools menu choose Internet Options.
On the General tab, under Browsing history, click Settings.
Under "Check for newer versions of stored pages" make sure "Every time I visit the webpage" is selected.
Click the OK button.
If somebody has this problem and ctrl+F5, clearing browser's cache, restarting debugging, changing browser, changing web.config and rebuilding project don't help, then there is one last thing that works (at least for me): restart Visual Studio.
Also changing debugging port on local IIS Express helps but this is far more painful if working in a team or using Azure Active Directory etc.
Only solution that worked for me was changing the javascript file name and updating the bundle configuration to point at the new file. I tried everything else from restarting my pc, deleting bin/obj/cache/etc, CTRL F5, restart IIS, and so on.
If I'm correct you should build (ctrl+shift+b) your project before debugging. This web server runs in the background on a port of choosing whenever you start in debug mode. You can close the task(s) (process bar next to your clock) if you need a new session or press F5 in VS.
You can avoid using the built in web server if you have IIS (Express) or something similar.
Go to RUN and type iis depending on your OS it's already installed. Otherwise try to install it in Control Panel > Programs or Features > Turn windows features on or off
add a website (site name, path, hostname)
add to your host file 127.0.0.1 hostname (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts)
To debug your project in Visual Studio:
open your website on your hostname in your favourite browser
click on DEBUG
click on ATTACH TO PROCESS
find w3wp.exe
hit ctrl+f5 in your browser to start debugging server code
Depending on how your solution/project is setup, you can publish your project files directly to IIS if you choose to publish to File System. Right mouse click on your project and choose publish. Set it up from there.
If your Visual Studio is up-to-date you can publish single files with alt+$+p.
Hope it helps.
Locate the code section where the JavaScript file is loaded to the page and add a parameter string to the end for testing. For example:
Change src="../Resources/js/MyScriptFile.js"
To src="../Resources/js/MyScriptFile.js?v=23"
Every time you update your JavaScript file, you change the version number. This will force the browser to load your new version of JavaScript file. After you finished testing, You can remove the string "?v=23". The bonus, if you leave it there, the end user will not be required to refresh his/her browser cache after you deployed your code to production.
I keep getting this problem very often. Normally what I do is first get into the drive where the OS is installed (In my case C:), and delete all the application.dll and application.pdb (it is stored in Windows\Microsoft.net\Framework\vx.x.xxxxx\Temporary ASP.NET Files). Delete application.dll and application.pdb in the users\xxx. Get into the application directory and again delete application.dll and application.pdb. Clear the browser cache. Restart the system (cold restart). Build the application. Most of time found to be working.
Note: I use DOS prompt for deleting since I'm quite used to it. But the user should have admin privileges. It's not a perfect solution but it works.
What worked for me was
Shutdown Visual Studio 2013 update 2 (I have win 8.1 all 64 bit)
Delete clear out "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files"
Cleaned and Rebuilt solution
Restart IIS Express. If using IIS just re start app and pool.
Run in VS 2013 Debug (F5) it still loads the old file under Script Documents > Windows Internet Explorer > Page_Name.aspx
Then F12 Developer tools clear Browser Cache (IE), I have the same issue in Chrome
F5 in browser reload the page finally loads the changed JS script file with my debugger; entry and breakpoints set
So i had the same problem and i could avoid this by canceling the .ASP.NET-Server
.ASP.NET-Server from Visual Studio for debugging
from Visual Studio and restarting the debugging. Hope this helps someone.
I restarted Visual Studio and rebuilt the project, but the problem persisted for me -- the debugger continued to run an old copy of the .js file. The solution for me was to simply reboot the machine. (When all else fails...)
For reference, I'm currently using Visual Studio 2015.
My IE10 has stopped execution of JavaScript for pages stored locally, infact it does not asks for permission to allow their execution.
I have Windows 8 x64 with IE 10 installed. A few days back whenever I used to open a file which used JavaScript IE10 used to display a message "IE restricted this webpage from running scripts or activex controls" with a button to allow blocked content.
Now, this dialog doesn't appear at all and I'm unable to test JavaScript programs in my local machine using IE. (On websites like gmail etc JS simply works).
I have tried changing security setting inside internet options to lowest but no use.
P.S.: On repeatedly clicking reload on realized that permission to allow blocked context dialog appears for fraction of a second and disappears.
I solved the issue by installing a cumulative security update for IE10 Windows 8 x64 from
this link
Don't know why this is related with the issue, but my friend suggested me try to update IE, and on googling I found this update.
I posted it here because when I searched internet for the solution, I was not able to find any case of this type.
I have seen several posts that talk about remote debugging of javascript code on Android, but they all miss the point of what I am trying to do.
I have a Nexus 7 and I want to use it as a remote development environment when I am away from my desktop. I have created a chrooted debian distribution to run apache and php and git (via ssh). This chrooted environment mounts a subdirectory of the /sdcard directory from outside the chroot environement. Apache document root of a virtual host is pointing at a directory within this. Before leaving the desktop I can git push the latest release to the tablet. When I return git pull can get what I have done back again.
I then (when away from home and NOT connected to any network) can edit the code using an Android editor (using the 920 text editor), but then run the browser to look at what I have developed using localhost the apache virtual host picks this up and displays it.
The application I am developing IS NOT FOR ANDROID - it is ultimately for the desktop. But I want to be able to debug it like I was on the desktop. Breakpoints and single stepping are the prime thing, but also I tend to use the html section in firebug to adjust my CSS before editing it.
Is there a way to get either the chrome developer tools or firebug add on for firefox to load into a browser that will run in android?
I use Firebug lite bookmarklet for iPhone and iPad, never tried on Android, check this out http://martinkool.com/post/13629963755/firebug-on-ipad-and-iphone it must be similar on Android.
To activate it use this steps:
Create a new bookmark or bookmark a page
Rename the bookmark to “Firebug”
Copy the textarea link:
javascript:(function(F,i,r,e,b,u,g,L,I,T,E){if(F.getElementById(b))return;E=F[i+'NS']&&F.documentElement.namespaceURI;E=E?Fi+'NS':Fi;Er;Er;Er;(Fe[0]||Fe[0]).appendChild(E);E=new%20Image;Er;})(document,'createElement','setAttribute','getElementsByTagName','FirebugLite','4','firebug-lite.js','releases/lite/latest/skin/xp/sprite.png','https://getfirebug.com/','#startOpened');
Edit the Firebug bookmarklet, remove the URL and paste the
bookmarklet
Choose “Done” (on the virtual keyboard) and you’re all set
Hitting that bookmarklet should give you a fully functioning Firebug at the bottom of your mobile device.
At least not for Firefox Mobile, because all the devtools are still partially based on XUL, where the Firefox Mobile is using Native UI.
I don't think there is any plan in the close future to change this situation; it's not a common scenario.
However, you should be able to do something using the Debugger API, creating an add-on for Firefox Mobile. But I don't know if it's worthy.
I wrote a very simple extension for Safari 5 that only outputs a single log message from a start script. This is the start script:
console.log('start script running');
If I go to any internet page (eg. http://www.yahoo.com) the log message appears in the error console. But if I open any local html page no log message appears. By local I mean on my local machine. It's like my start script never gets run for local pages (eg. C:/blank.html).
Is there a permission setting I'm overlooking or is this a feature of Safari 5?

Caveat: I only have a passing familiarity with the Safari extension system. I work on Google Chrome which is based on Webkit. Safari is also based on webkit.
In a Google Chrome extension, you can inject a script into a local page using the file:// permission. But I’m pretty sure there’s no analogue for Safari extensions.
The Safari page on script injection also seems to say you can’t interact with local files:
“You cannot access resources on the user’s hard drive outside of the extensions folder.”
There is no way to inject scripts on local files.
