I have a VB.NET 2.0 website currently using a version of Aspose.Cells purchased sometime prior to 2009. The production site is hosted by Rackspace.
We are in the process of upgrading to .NET 4.0 and have a test site hosted on Rackspace. I am having a securing issue with my Aspose pages. When using my local machine or Test machine I do not have any issues, but the site hosted by Rackspace has an issue. This may be because it running in a Modified Medium Trust security profile, and we are NOT allowed to change that.
- Using my existing Aspose.Cells.dll and Aspose.Cells.lic from my .NET 2.0 site (purchased prior to 2009), I am able to open a generated Excel .xls on my new .NET 4.0 site. I am NOT able to generate/open an .xlsx, I get an error that .xlsx is not a format type.
- Using the new .NET 3.5 Aspose.Cells.dll and temporary license file generated today, I receive the error below when trying to generate either an Excel .xls OR .xlsx using the same exact code as in number 1 above.
We want to upgrade to the new version of Aspose so we can use .xlsx format, but we need to make sure we do not have security issues on Rackspace.
