Hello everyone, I've spent a few hours trying to configure my Apache server to use SSL with no public IP, just localhost. I've created the certificate OK, I think (it has been like a crash course on black magic for me), and when I try tro access https://localhost, the browser says "Connected to localhost..." on the status line but just ...
Hi, Could someone tell me the advantages to using the ConfigurationManager class which load's a config file for manipulation VS an XML file with a class you build to read it yourself? Recently, I built a class which inherits from ConfigurationSection in order to manipulate a custom section within app.config. This was quite a bit of wor...
I'd like to reference an external configuration (e.g., *.ini) file that will allow me to set configuration variables for each deployment of my Air application. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find any information on the best way to approach this problem. With that being said, does anyone have any advice on how to make this happen...
Ok, this is annoying. MSTest executes all of my tests simultaneously which causes some of them to fail. No this is not because my tests are fragile and susceptible to build order rather it is because this is a demo project in which I use a Db4o object database running from a file. So I have a couple of DataAccess tests checking that m...
I am attempting to get the current users RAM configuration. I would like to use VBA to look this up and then store it in a table. I need the number of chips along with the amount of RAM on each chip. Is this possible to lookup programmatically using VBA? Do I need to use Windows Script Host? ...
I have a SSIS master package, which executes several child packages. It works great, but when I deploy it to the file system on the server, I get an error code "0xC00220DE". "The system cannot find the file specified." When I run the package on the server by double-clicking it, it works correctly. But when I use DTExec: dtexec /FILE "d...
When I connect to the SQL Server 2008 remotely it only works once, after that the server hangs. The service cannot be stopped or restarted and when trying to connect again it gives a 'Timeout' error. The server has TCP/IP connections enabled. The default port is set to 1433 and I cleared the 0 from the dynamic ports. I enabled the 127.0...

We have a configuration XML database. Rather than access this directly through the database API I'd like to extend .Net's configuration classes to add a custom storage provider. I'm not sure where to start. I've seen the Configuration Application Block but this seems to have been deprecated. I'm using .Net 3.5. Which classes should ...
I'm just writing some data access code. I've decided to pass in the name of connection string from the config via constructor injection which the repository then reads and uses to construct a SqlConnectionStringBuilder. Thinking about it I probably don't need the SqlConnectionStringBuilder but that's a different matter. Should I be re...
We noticed that a hacker created a domain and configured DNS to point it to our server's IP address. We are using apache2.x on Ubuntu. There is a "default" file in apache's /etc/apache2/sites-available directory and it looks like the the hacker's domain is using "default" apache configuration file to display our web content in their d...
I have several applications that I wish to deploy using rpm. Some of the files in my application deployments override files from other deployed packages. Simply including the new files in the deployment package will cause rpm conflicts. I am looking for the proper way to use rpm to update/replace already installed files. I have alrea...
Is there a way to find out the project path at compile time? I want to create a unit test that tests if the configurartion in the default web.config (the one in the project folder). Mainly to reduce human error. I cannot rely on assembly locations at runtime (for the test), so I need to know where the project folder is to access web.c...
I have a web application that uses a symmetric encryption algorithm. How would you store the secret key and initialization vector? Storing as a literal in the code seems like a bad idea. How about app settings? What is the best practice here? ...
I have a ClickOnce deployed Windows Forms application that uses application settings for two key features: the database the user connects and whether they use replication services or connect to the main server. Those settings were changed for some, but not all, users after they installed the most recent update. What can cause applicatio...
I can't seem to find this on google anywhere. I am trying to move to emacs from eclipse but I can't for the life of me figure out how to set my svn author name so it doesn't default the author name OR save the password so I don't have to type it in any each time. I am Ubuntu 8.10 if that matters. Any insight would be great. Thanks. ...
In a web application written using spring-MVC, I want to allow users to change the current language by clicking on a link which text is the name of the language. I have already set up a messageSource and made all my jsp pages find the messages using this messageSource. Currently, the language is changing depending on the locale of the ...
I am seeing simple examples regarding custom configuration in .NET. My case is a bit more complex, with nested nodes. I'd like to be able to read this from the configuration file: <environments> <environment name="live" url="http://www.live.com"> <server name="a" IP="192.168.1.10"></server> <server name="b" IP="192.168.1.20"><...
