The uprisings in the Middle East, the unrest that is tearing apart nations such as the Ivory Coast, the bubbling discontent in Greece, Ireland and Britain and the labor disputes in states such as Wisconsin and Ohio presage the collapse of globalization. They presage a world where vital resources, including food and water, jobs and security, are becoming scarcer and harder to obtain. They presage growing misery for hundreds of millions of people who find themselves trapped in failed states, suffering escalating violence and crippling poverty. They presage increasingly draconian controls and force—take a look at what is being done to Pfc. Bradley Manning—used to protect the corporate elite who are orchestrating our demise."

WCF Not Using My Domain Name, But Rather My Computer Name When Viewing MyService.Svc?Wsdl

2010-12-24T08:11:00.000-08:00

HOWTO: Fix WCF Host Name on IIS
By gavinmckay
This is a problem I have tripped across before, and it just popped up again. Time for a post on how to fix it, mainly so I won’t have to track down MSDN articles and obscure posts to remember how to do it!

When building a WCF Web Service on your local machine, the service will automatically generate WSDL for you with an address similar to http://YOURPC/MyService.svc. This works fine when testing locally, but when you want to publish this to your production environment so it can be used by World + Dog, it doesn’t respect the fact you have a nice URL you would like to use instead. For example, if your production server is “Server01″ and the URL you have assigned to the website in IIS is my.publicserver.com, your service may look like this:

Instead of displaying the “real” URL (my.publicserver.com), it displays the name of the server (server01) instead. Not at all what is required! Worse still, connections to your web server will fail because the WSDL is pointing to the non-published server name and your client won’t be able to get there. This is because WCF automatically uses the IIS Site Bindings to determine what the base addresses for the service should be.

The solution is to update the IIS metabase so IIS knows what to do with the request, then WCF will pick up on this. To fix this, perform the following steps.

Get the Website Identifier from IIS

To change the site bindings you need to know which site to change. Open the IIS Manager to view the sites available, find the one you want to change, and record the website id in the “Identifier” column. You will need this in the next step.

The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration

2010-12-24T06:13:00.000-08:00

Recently, I migrated to Windows 7 and ended up installing all my software's again. I had a project which involved hosting a WCF service on IIS. The service used a .svc file extension and IIS 7 on my machine was not aware how to handle these files.

The error I got looked something like this:

HTTP Error 404.3 – Not Found

The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map. Detailed Error InformationModule StaticFileModule.

There were more errors related to local machine below these errors.I looked up the net and after some digging figured out the solution to the problem:

Run Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt as “Administrator”.
Navigate to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.0\Windows Communication Foundation.
Run this command servicemodelreg –i.
The servicemodelreg is a command line tool which provides the ability to manage the registration on ServiceModel on a machine. You can get more info on the tool at MSDN here.

I guess the mistake I made was enabling IIS post installing VS and .NET 3.5 or else the services are not turned on for IIS 7.0 by default.

jQuery's ajax request by POST method cause the security validation error

2010-06-23T12:52:00.000-07:00

To avoid security validation error:

- First you need to make sure that your web.config file is updated to support Ajax.Net. In turn that will enable you to use ajax calls with json parameters. There are a lot of changes there, so be careful.
- Use Fidler to see the actual request/response, this may shed some more light on the matter
- Make sure GetDataMethod is a static
- Make sure 'data' is a valid jason object passed as a string
- Make sure 'dataType' is 'json', assuming you updated the web.config
- Make sure 'contentType' is 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
Finally, the proper ajax POST format is like so:

$.ajax({
    'type' : 'POST',
    'url' : 'GetSampleData.aspx/GetDataMethod',
    'data' : '{data:"abcdfg"}',
    'contentType': 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
    'dataType' : 'json',
    'success' : function (data) {
    //process data
    },
    'error' : function (xhttp, textStatus, errorThrown) {
    //show error
    }

Then I thought that there must be easier way to handle that and there it was
Link to source "Migrating IIS"

To summarize it basically includes following steps:

Create back up on IIS server A (with password)
Grab the backup from following location: ..\system32\inetsrv\metaback
Copy backup to server B on the same location ..\system32\inetsrv\metaback
Run restore on IIS server B pointing to created backup
When IIS ask for password provide it and that's it :-)

Cloning objects in js

2009-06-05T07:02:00.000-07:00

I want to note that the .clone() method in jQuery only clones DOM elements - in order to clone JavaScript objects you would do:

// Shallow copy
var newObject = jQuery.extend({}, oldObject);

// Deep copy
var newObject = jQuery.extend(true, {}, oldObject);

More information can be found in the jQuery documentation.

I also want to note that the deep copy is actually much smarter than what is shown above - it's able to avoid many traps (trying to deep extend a DOM element, for example). It's used frequently in jQuery core and in plugins to great effect.

Thread aboration on asp.net 2 ??

2009-01-12T11:23:00.000-08:00

I run into problem with thread being aborted while uploading big files.
It turned out that if you modify any file domain reload is triggered that shuts down all threads.

More about it at this link

Evan Hoff [14/May/08 03:49 PM]
I'm not sure if this is the cause for CC.NET, but I've seen this same behavior in other 2.0 ASP.NET apps.

Here's the skinny:

In 2.0, ASP.NET changed so that any file changes (above and beyond web.config, global.asax, and /bin) will trigger an AppDomain reload.

During the reload, any thread which does not cleanly shut down within a specified timeout period will get aborted.

Reading your description above, I would guess you have several ASP.NET threads working on sockets. A filesystem change is triggering an AppDomain refresh and those threads aren't restarting within the timeframe expected by ASP.NET. As a result, the threads get aborted (causing the logs you are seeing). When the threads are aborted, your socket code doesn't restart, and your client receives a message about the server being too busy.

Or at least that's a theory you can try exploring. You can google the behavior change to read about it, but there's not a way to turn the behavior off (unfortunately).

"Renaming" fields within table

2008-11-26T10:00:00.000-08:00

Today I have to change the name of one column within my ms sql database.
I wanted to come up with the script that will do it for me.
I figured that ms sql discourage use of altering column names, rather they want you to drop and then recreate column using following sql:


ALTER TABLE TableName DROP COLUMN ColumnName

ALTER TABLE TableName ADD ColumnName datatype NULL

I haven't spent much time exploring further possibility of "renaming" column that exists with oracle. If something like this is possible with ms sql 2005 I would like to hear?

Visual Studio Search & Replace (Multiple Lines)

2008-11-21T13:28:00.001-08:00

After spending some time figuring out how to find and replace multiple line content across multiple files, I figured that VS 08 that I'm using offer this functionality.
This functionality is very powerful due to regular expressions.
Regular expressions seem very confusing and complicated at the first glance, but are very very powerful.

Here is a sample of what I did:
//match this
private void Page_Load$object sender, System.EventArgs e$\n.*\{\n:b*if $!IsAuthenticated\($\)\n:b*Server\.Transfer$GetAppSetting\(GlobalConstants\.NOT_AUTHENTICATED_KEY$\);

Couple of things worth remembering:
1. \n.* matches zero or more line breaks
2. \ escape any special character as bracket (
3. :b matches space or tab

//replace with this
if (!IsAuthenticated())\n\t\t\t\tServer.Transfer(GetAppSetting(GlobalConstants.NOT_AUTHENTICATED_KEY));\n\n\t\t\tUserRole role = GetUserRole();\n\t\t\tswitch (role)

Hope I'll have more time to play with regular expression since this is extremely powerful concept.

d: [^(\\(cvs|\.svn|_svn|\.bzr|\.hg)$)] ## Filter for all directories but Source Control
