Launch the web application automatically

I have an asp.net update web app. Users navigate to the page, click the refresh button, and launch the program. We also want this program to run as a scheduled task every night. Is it possible? How would you handle this?

You can create a shortcut in your program on your web application page (say update.aspx? Command = update) and then configure the server scheduler to run that shortcut whenever you want.



I would recommend that you use a page that has nothing on it and will only respond to a specific command, this way you reduce the risk that your page will "crash" when you don't want to.

The best way would be to split the application into domain dlls, then your aspx page could use that DLL, and you could also write a console application that uses the same DLL. You can set up a scheduled task to run the console application at night.
