Hi, The Circuit Breaker pattern, from the book Release It!, protects a service from requests while it is failing (or recovering). The net.msmq binding used with transactions give us nice retry and poison message capabilities. But I am missing the implementation of such a "Circuit breaker" pattern. A service is put under even heavier loa...
hi, I've hard time to make Drupal work on IIS Microsoft server. I've succesfully run Joomla on the same server so I'm pretty sure the following information are correct: host: localhost user: user pass: pass databaseName = servername_databasename I've set the following line in settings.php file: $db_url = 'mysql://user:password@local...
I have a webservice and a webform. A button invokes the webservice which reads a given process name from pid. This works fine in VS2008 but when I publish my project I dont get the name? How can I configure IIS to allow me to do so? or is there an alternative way i.e. wcf or wwf? Edit: using System.Diagnostics; [WebMethod] pu...
I recently read Scott Chacon's post "Smart HTTP Transport", and I was hoping that it might have become possible via IIS (windows 7) since that post was written. I haven't been able to find anything showing how it can be done, and Apache is not an option in my IIS 7 based environment. So, I'm at a loss (git daemon was foiled for me by a c...
Can anyone tell me, is there a way to run a process in IIS shared hosting service. Suppose, the scenario is like "I want to send emails to a list of email id's after everywhere 3 hrs", so the challenge here is the process should not be invoked by a HTTP link. It should be automatic. I think we can do this by IIS worker processes. Also...
I have 2 domains domain1.com and domain2.com hosted on IIS server, both point to one IP address. I have a SSl cert issued for domain1.com. How do I decline https://domain2.com request before user sees name mismatch certificate error? ...
I managed to get ASP.NET to work in Apache, as per http://weblogs.asp.net/israelio/archive/2005/09/11/424852.aspx but I'm unsure how to get it to rewrite pages, with a web.config file. I've tried using Google endlessly, but came to nothing. What's the best solution for me to rename my pages, e.g. mytestpage.aspx to mytestpage.htm Als...
This is obviously a security issue and probably do not want to change this, but it would be nice to handle the error. Any ideas? I see that stackoverflow is not immune: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/web.config They seem to have changed the tag to web-config to fix the problem but you still get a very nasty error message wh...
I'm trying to set up a web app (32bit on ii7/win7, 32bit setting is enabled, everything is compiled to x86, using vs2008), but there's clearly some dll module loading issue happening. I've been watching procmon and fusion logs but I'm not seeing the name of the missing dll. I'm a complete newbie to asp.net (but fairly heavy experience o...
I'm not sure whether this is a server issue, or whether I'm failing to understand how HTTP caching really works. I have an ASP MVC application running on IIS7. There's a lot of static content as part of the site including lots of CSS, Javascript and image files. For these files I want the browser to cache them for at least a day - our ...
I'm kind of hoping the answer will be "No, it will only create a single Web Site, and not an FTP Site", since I'm half way through writing some WMI code to create the FTP site. ...
Is there a way to create an installable (ideally XCopy installable) version of an ASP.NET MVC application that will run in a standalone fashion on a Windows XP machine? I don't mind installing SQL Server Express for this purpose, so I guess the question boils down to this: Can the Cassini web server that comes with Visual Studio 2008 be...
I've encountered a problem when moving a Wordpress installation from a Linux Apache server to a Windows IIS server. Nearly all pages load blank, including /wp-admin/. I created a php file in the main directory to check phpinfo, and it loads fine. I've copied the file system over, as well as the database. I've also updated the wp-config....
I'm running a weird issue here. I have code that makes jquery ajax calls to a web service and dynamically adds controls using jquery. Everything works fine on my dev machine running IIS 5.1, but not when deployed to IIS 6. I'm using VS2010/ASP.Net 4.0, C#, jQuery 1.4.2 and jQuery UI 1.8.1. I'm using the same browser for each. It partial...
I'm getting the good ole' "This page contains both secure and nonsecure items." dialog in IE when connecting to an HTTPS site. No big deal... I've just got something coming in over a non-secure connection so that should be an easy fix, right? So I go into "View > Web Page Privacy Policy..." to look to see where I've included an HTTP fil...
I heard a rumour that the IIsFtpService WMI class is not supported when using IIS7 (with IIS6 WMI compatability). However, I cannot find this on Microsoft's website. I need to write support for both IIS6 and IIS7. I have tried and failed to use the class with no success, but IIsWebService works just fine. ...
Hi all, at work I am struggling a bit with the following situation: We have a web application that runs on a WIndows Server 2008 64 bits machine. The app's ApplicationPool is running under the ApplicationPoolIdentity and configured for .net 2 and Classic pipeline mode. This works fine up to the moment that XmlSerialization requires cre...

Most of the time when a user enter to the site, it take a lot of time to load the first time to the page, after the page works well for user and other users in other networks. I created a cache that is store in an application variable to reduces the access to the data base and increase the performance but It is reset when the applicati...
