Comment on Retrieving the message count for MSMQ queues by Randy Burden

Randy Burden — Thu, 10 May 2012 00:07:17 +0000

Unfortunately when using this method, the queue names get truncated to 64 characters which for most people like myself, can make this option unusable. When querying for queues on a remote machine, the queue name comes back looking like this: MachineName\private$\QueueName so with that extra text prepended to the beginning of the queue name, you can easily exceed 64 characters. If only Microsoft would just implement a MessageCount property… See: http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/91525/system-daignostics-performancecounter-fails-when-using-instance-name-64-characters

Comment on Distributed transactions with WCF and NHibernate by Emil Åström

@Mary

Hi Mary,

Too bad you’re having problems. I’m afraid it’s very difficult to know what is causing them without having a look at the code but I would start by putting ISession.Close() back and see what happens. ISession.Clear() should not come into play, all that method does is to remove all objects from the session.

The reason I don’t do Close() is that I leave that to the distributed transactions. Do you use that as well? If you do, then removing them to see if that helps.

Also, which version of NHibernate are you using? My article describes version 2.1.1, I don’t know how later versions handle transactions. It may have changed.

Hope this helps,

Emil

Hi,Emil.
I have many problems in my project use nhibernate in wcf service.
I get errors like this:The transaction has aborted. I do like you said in you article above.
You saied:Don’t close the NHibernate ISession explicitly .Can I understand like this:don’t use sesson.Close() and session.Clear().
Can you give me a hand for my project? If you have any ideas ,you can send an email ,and we can have a talk about it .
thank you !

Comment on Book review: MCPD 70-519 Exam Ref: Designing and Developing Web Applications Using Microsoft® .NET Framework 4 by Emil Åström

Thanks for the comment, Tony, I appreciate it! I did like the book and the criticisms above are quite minor indeed. However, your 70-515 book was more useful to me as that exam is more of a challenge.

Glad you liked the book! Yeah, the “Exam Ref” format is intended to be very exam-centric, and the exam, of course, is focused on Microsoft topics.

Comment on Retrieving the message count for MSMQ queues by Emil Åström

Emil Åström — Thu, 23 Feb 2012 11:57:14 +0000

Update:

If some queues are not showing up then perhaps they’re not active. Make sure that you have an active listener or have sent messages to the queues. It might also help restarting the “Message Queueing” service.

Emil Åström — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 19:00:16 +0000

Agreed, it’s understandable. But I think he could be clearer about the distinction between studying for the exam and doing things like logging in the real world. It’s not a big problem but my point is that it should be kept in mind when reading the book.

It’s understandable he doesn’t mention Open Source ORM considering it’s a Microsoft exam reference guide. It covers subjects within the 70-519 exam.

Comment on Property promotion when debatching messages from the BizTalk WCF SQL adapter by Emil Åström

Emil Åström — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 13:38:16 +0000

Actually, I might have been wrong about that. I couldn’t get it working but if you read the comments to Richard Seroter’s blog post that I mentioned above, it seems that others were more successful. Perhaps I had another problem that went undiscovered.

“property promotions in the incoming schema (which is created automatically if you’re using typed polling) doesn’t work”

Why doesnät it work?

Comment on Refreshing data in jQuery DataTables by Emil Åström

Emil Åström — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 19:11:20 +0000

Yes, but for some reason that did not work for me. When googling I found several others having the same problem and that’s why I wrote this post. Apparently it’s some combination of configuration options that causes the problems…

Thanks for the comment though, it may very well work for others having similar problems.

There is also fnReloadAjax() which is very similar to your code. See http://www.datatables.net/plug-ins/api

I’m really sorry for a very late reply to this, but I rarely work with EPiServer these days so I don’t know the answer to your question. If I come across it, I’ll post it here…

@Johan Hi , I'm trying to migrate our app to EPiServer 5 and i'm also facing the same issue..did you get any alternative for GetPageByURL?

Comment on Open an EPiServer page by Johan

Johan — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 07:30:58 +0000

Hi! I see this is an old post but I wanna do this: pagedata = Global.EPDataFactory.GetPageByURL(“/Bokningsbara-kurser/”); in CMS6 but ‘EPiServer.DataFactory’ does not contain a definition for ‘GetPageByURL’

How to do this in CMS6?

Comment on Calling a PowerShell script from a Windows shortcut by Emil Åström

@ygarti

Hi!

It looks like your last single quote is ′, and not ‘, which would have been correct. It could be that WordPress mangled your quotes when you posted your comment so if that’s not the error we have too look further…

Your script path does not contain any white space so you can remove the single quotes completely, maybe that helps?

If it doesn’t I don’t know what the error may be (your example works for me). What error do you get?
